As a seasoned gamer with years of experience under my belt, I find myself deeply dismayed by Twitch’s recent decision to ban Trainwreck for three whole days during his much-anticipated Rust event. Having followed and admired his streams for quite some time, it’s disappointing to see such a respected figure in the gaming community facing this inconvenience.
At a Rust event, Trainwreck found himself temporarily barred from Twitch for three days. The reasoning behind this ban, as stated by Twitch, was due to “spamming” activities, and allegedly, guiding users towards other online platforms.
The event has users fighting for an exceedingly rare weapon, an AK-47 blue gem modeled after the incredibly rare CS2 Case-Hardened AK skin that’s worth over a million dollars. The event was set to run from November 8-18th and was themed around his very own custom-skin.

Consequently, since Trainwrecks received a three-day suspension from the platform, all activities have effectively halted. This is because any Twitch streamer who includes him in their live stream would also face a ban.
The email Train received from Twitch claimed that he was banned for “User Spam”, with the most relevant clause to him being the bit about redirecting users to another service. It reads as follows:
3-day suspension during the Rust stream? It’s been more than five years since I received a ban, a heads up would have been appreciated @TwitchSupport.

The text can be rephrased as follows: “The message indicates that users are directed to a livestream or other service through links on a Twitch stream, such as overlays, QR codes, stream titles, and notifications when going live. However, promoting your broadcast to move away from Twitch to another platform like Kick might result in a ban.
Based on how Twitch interprets and applies its own guidelines, shouting one’s username during a livestream on Kick might lead to a ban.
Train stated during his live stream that the action was intentional since he is familiar with his accounts, and it wasn’t an automatic ban.
He expressed his frustration so strongly: ‘It’s just unbelievable. What are the odds? I held the second spot on the platform for an astonishing 16 hours straight, and today is the day they suspend my account. I’ve been carrying that crown for the past two years on Twitch.’
To clarify, Twitch has been noted for its unpredictable approach towards banning users, and it’s worth mentioning that prominent streamers such as xQc can be found streaming across both Twitch and Kick platforms.
