During a livestream on November 23, Twitch star Kai Cenat addressed some problematic behavior that his Twitch channel moderators were engaging in.
The streamer read out a message he received from a viewer who was complaining that they had been banned from the channel and that a moderator had asked them to pay $3 via CashApp to get unbanned.
While discussing the issue, Kai Cenat noticed a moderator laughing in the chat. He called out the mod and expressed his displeasure at the situation:
"I don't give a f**k if it's a f***ing joke. I don't give a f**k what it is. And he's not the only one. Bro, (moderator's name) you're laughing, bro? Like, I'm genuinely not laughing! If this was so funny, bro, I would just wipe all of y'all n***** out right now, bro!"

"This is beyond f***ked up, by the way. Like, this is actually like f***ked up on so much levels. Okay? Why the f**k am I getting... hold on. Why the f**k am I getting a f***ing message after my stream saying, 'Hey Kai, I was recently banned in your chat for no reason, and I requested an appeal and your mod responded to this, 'CashApp $3 to CashTag (name) and add your Twitch username for an unban.''"

"And it's like, y'all keep laughing and I'm dead a** because y'all n***** is presenting me at the end of the f***ing day! I, as a streamer, look f***ing crazy, bro!

"'Bro, you think I want to hear that? Bro, and I'm being so dead a** right now! Do you think I want to hear that s**t?"
