One of the most famous faces in the Twitch world, and former Twitch streamer Dr. Disrespect, who was mysteriously banned from the platform permanently last year, has now been fired from the game company he founded. An official statement regarding his dismissal has also been released.
Dr. Disrespect, known as one of the most recognizable figures in the Twitch and streaming world and considered one of the key contributors to the current state of streaming, continues to face tough times. The former Twitch phenomenon has now been removed from his own company.
The famous Twitch streamer continues to deny the allegations against him
Everything started when Dr. Disrespect was suddenly banned from Twitch last year. The famous streamer, claiming he had done nothing to warrant such an action, embarked on a lengthy legal battle with Twitch.
Last week, a former Twitch employee revealed the reason for Dr. Disrespect’s ban. According to the former employee, the streamer sent inappropriate messages to a follower under the age of 18, leading to his indefinite ban from Twitch. Dr. Disrespect responded with an official statement on his social media accounts, asserting that the allegations were baseless.
Earlier today, the game studio Midnight Society, which Dr. Disrespect (Guy Beahm) co-founded, announced in a statement that they had parted ways with him. In their official announcement, the studio described themselves as a family of 55 developers and stated that they needed to make an honorable decision for the community. They emphasized their belief in the presumption of innocence and noted that they had discussed the matter with the parties involved, but felt it was more appropriate to act in order to uphold their principles and standards.
Following this separation, no statement has yet been made from Dr. Disrespect’s side. The future of Deadrop, the game the company has been developing for a long time, remains uncertain. What are your thoughts on these developments? Feel free to share your views in the comments section.
