New report all but confirms Dr Disrespect’s Twitch ban reason

A recently released news report from Bloomberg has all but confirmed the allegations of sexual misconduct against Guy Beahm aka Dr DisRespect for his 2020 Twitch ban. The issue of why the Amazon-owned streaming platform banned him has been a hot topic of conversation online over the last couple of days since an ex-employee named Cody Connors claimed he knew the reason.

Last week he made a post on X stating that Dr DisRespect had allegedly texted inappropriate remarks to a Minor through Twitch. Connors also claimed that the popular streamer tried to meet up with the underage person at a TwitchCon, citing it as the reason his contract was terminated and his account banned from the streaming platform.

On June 25 a news report from Bloomberg by Cecilia D'Anastasio corroborated these very accusations against Guy Beahm from four unnamed sources, garnering a lot of attention on social media.

What happened to Dr DisRespect in the aftermath of the allegations?

Dr DisRespect has become quite a controversial figure in the streaming industry since the accusations came to light a few days ago. The streamer has not outright denied the allegations against himself but in a post on X stated that the case had been settled with neither parties acknowledging any wrongdoing.

While many fans in his community remained unconvinced, some of his Twitch streamers have publicly called him out. In a now-deleted post, Call of Duty content creator Nadia Amine went as far as to label him a "pedo".

Popular Just Chatting streamer Felix "xQc" even defended Midnight Society, the video game studio co-founded by Dr DisRespect in 2021, when they announced in a press release their decision to cut ties with the streamer after talking with the parties involved.

Readers should note that in his latest stream playing Elden Ring, the streamer broke his usually upbeat character after reading a message and decided to end the broadcast early. The Doc, as he is popularly known among fans, also discussed stepping away from gaming and streaming space, claiming that he was burnt out and needed time off from social media.
