Kick streamer N3on has denied claims made by a Kick staff member who goes by the online alias Santamaria about the former using view bots to artificially inflate viewership numbers at one point in his career. After reacting to Santamaria's clip, the streamer went on a tirade, claiming that he was being deliberately put down and discredited.

N3on responded to the allegation of using view bots and claimed that when he would end his stream, other streamers like Sneako, Fresh, and Fit would see a bump in their viewership counts:

"I hate it when motherf**kers discredit my success, bro. I was averaging 100K with the fastest chat in history, right? And chat, I would end my stream and this dude Sneako would go up 50,000 views on Rumble. I would end my stream, Fresh and Fit went up 50,000 views. Get off my f**king d**k bro. Give me some credit for once in my life."

Kick staff Santamaria and N3on's view botting controversy explored

Earlier last week, a clip from Kick staff member Santamaria went viral on social media after it was reshared by popular X user @DramaAlert. In the short video, the Kick employee accused N3on of using bots in the past:

"At one point N3on was botting. 36,000 is now his average. At one point, I remember, this guy was hitting 90, this dude was hitting 90,000. I am just giving you proof, that yes, we are honing in on it."

On his most recent stream on September 22, N3on flatly denied the allegations from the Kick staff and responded by claiming that the employee should be looking to fix other things like the website's API:

"This old a** man, I have no beef with you. I love Kick, I love Kick staff. But bro, you're so deep in bro. Worry about fixing the API and sh*t bro, what the f**k you doing? Like, goddamn! This motherf**ker's deep in."

The streamer reiterated how people had been discrediting his success and claimed that he was blessed to have done so well in his career last year when he was getting 90K+ concurrent viewers on Kick:

"Yes, I am not doing as good as I used to, a hundred percent bro, but you cannot discredit at one point in my life last year I was going f**king insane. And we are still doing so good and I am so blessed and I am grateful. But bro, at one point we were doing top of the top numbers. Top of the f**king top bro, you can't question that. You can't."

This is not the first time N3on has been accused of using bots on his streams. Last month, fellow Kick streamer Ice Poseidon leveled similar allegations against him and some other content creators on different platforms.

In related news, some Kick streamers have admitted that their channels have been botted by others. Last year while discussing view bots, popular content creator Adin Ross pointed out how he had a slow chat despite having 80K concurrent viewers.
