Dr Disrespect addresses Twitch ban
The 38-year-old was removed from Twitch on the 26th of June due to a ban, which shocked his 4 million plus strong follower base. There was no official reason from Twitch, which fuelled widespread rumours and intense speculation.
After months, the Doc himself decided to speak out on his ban, in his return to live streaming on YouTube.
The moment which the world was eagerly waiting for had finally arrived, as for the first time, Dr Disrespect gave his official statement on the Twitch ban:
I really want you to look me in the eye when I say this... We still have no idea. As far as I'm concerned, we did not do anything to warrant a ban, let alone how they went about banning us.
No communication. No reaching out. Boom. Done.
The problem is there are people in the community that are anxious for an answer. So what it does is create a level of urgency and speculation and I think that's just a f******* cockroach approach. Period.
Last thing I'm gonna say about it and I have to be intelligent about all this because you're talking about a heavy contract... there's big money involved, so let the legal professionals do what they need to do.
Dr Disrespect's final statement for his fans on the entire issue, before he moved on to other topics, was:
My conscience? I feel so good. The momentum, whatever that was? Speed bump. And I don't feel like slowing down, that's the problem.
