“You’re a stupid slut.”

Twitch streamer XoAriel, who has 350,000 followers on the platform, regularly hosts her stream in a bikini by a pool, attracting an audience that requires heavy moderation to follow Twitch’s strict community guidelines. At any given time, she told Kotaku that she’ll have between “one and four moderators” banning people “once every 10 minutes or so.”

“We try to not ban people for little things, so like racist remarks, doxxing, and threats will get you banned instantly,” XoAriel said.

Some ban appeals are just created to continue trolling. XoAriel said that she’s “stopped looking at ban appeals because they’re not really funny anymore.” It’s a lot of the same she said, like “You’re a stupid slut” or “Sorry my brother got on my computer, won’t happen again.”

Continuing to be toxic is not a good way to get unbanned. There are very few streamers that are going to fall victim to a neg and reinstate a viewer with a track record of harassment. Not only is it cringe, it can also cause them to have their channels punished for lack of chat moderation.
