Twitch.tv officially bans the terms "simp", "virgin" and "incel" -

I think they are trying to help when they'll actually hurt. Don't really understand the paypig mindset but virgin simp incel screams masochist to me. Sure they get a thrill throwing large sums of money at some whore who would only look at them twice to confirm how gross they are, but being insulted for it by an entire chatroom must be the cherry on top of that exchange. Guess they did leave cuck and paypig on the table for now, but you have to know your audience.

I'm surprised they're banning incel. It's the preferred insult for anyone that doesn't simp for the soft-porn e-thots.
Their choices were likely to either 1) ban it, or 2) listen to people calling them out on their hypocrisy ad nauseum for banning insults but not this one really obvious insult that one side likes. Plus banning it lets them pretend to be impartial, while probably being more lax in enforcement for some terms than others.

Shame, some twitch users use Simp just to mean supporters. No bad no no words for you.

At least it's insults from both sides of the political sphere.

The festering rot common with Silicon Valley corporations is accelerating on Twitch, I see. Bet even partnered streamers will get bopped for casually dropping one of those terms in the context of whatever they're playing.
The festering rot isn't just affecting Silicon Valley, it's affecting all of society and it's all because too many people can't simply tell an asshole to fuck off if they have the right skin color or gender.

It's twitch chat. Twitch chat is what DLive chat was when you could donate $0.001 stickers every second. You can't read it, and if you could, there would be no point. It's just spam.

Yeah, let's see how long it lasts before it gets abused and now those words are banned, period. Imagine someone's going to talk about a recipe that needs virgin oil, and they get banned just because it has a "bad" word in it. Or someone says "insolent" because there's such a rude person on stream or in the chat, and because it sounds like "incel", that's a big no-no.

This is gonna backfire. :story:
"You have been banned because you were making fun of the simp's sons."

"What the fuck I was talking about Homer and Bart."

Most kids that play Fortnite and Among Us use swear words while parents aren’t looking yet you think words like simp, incel or virgin are damaging to your online streaming community?

I know the rot's much more societally widespread, it's just that Twitch is finally starting to piss its userbase off enough. Unfortunately, the only competitor is YouTube Gaming, which is hardly any better of an alternative. So as it stands, they can get away with this trigger word banhammering with impunity.
