"It was a very bad thing to do" - ExtraEmily says community should give her "chance to change" after recent Twitch ban

After serving a two-day ban, popular IRL Twitch streamer Emily "ExtraEmily" returned to her channel on October 17, 2023. For those unaware, ExtraEmily was suspended from the platform on October 14, 2023. Fans speculated that the decision was made in response to a viral video showcasing the content creator using her phone while driving.

The One True King (OTK) member addressed the community earlier today and responded to the backlash, with netizens claiming she "would not change." Stating that she was angered after reading comments posted online, ExtraEmily exclaimed:

"It just really bothers me when I see these messages or comments, saying that - 'Oh, she's not going to change. Oh, she's still going to look at her phone.' Why don't you give me a chance to prove myself that I won't do it?! So, it's like, I got really angry and I'm like... just, like, the past few days, I'm just like, 'Argh!' I can't even talk about it, you know? It gets me so angry! But, I shouldn't say anything."

A few moments later, the streamer admitted that driving with her phone was a "very bad thing to do" and apologized to the community:

"I understand that it was a very... what is it... a very bad thing to do. I understand, like, I apologize. I'm sorry for looking at my phone while doing distracted driving and putting it on stream and stuff. But, it is a mistake and I'm learning from my mistake, and I'm making sure that I'm not going to do it in the future! So, you know, that's good stuff."
