Dr. Disrespect finds himself being banned again after last year’s Twitch ban.
Dr.Disrespect has become quite the public figure. He is well known as popular streamer with over 3 million subscribers watching his antics on YouTube.
On the 26th of June Last year this controversial streamer was banned from Twitch with no explanation and it seems he has done it again.
Twitch’s official statement on his ban said” As is our process, we take appropriate action when we have evidence that a streamer has acted in violation of our Community Guidelines or Terms of Service. These apply to all streamers regardless of status or prominence in the community”.
This time the ban was not on a streaming platform but from the latest Call Of Duty: Warzone tournament called the Toronto Ultra.
The news comes via a video posted by fellow streamer ZLaner who announced that the “Doc” would not be competing in the tournament.
The speculation is that the ban is due to the Doc’s Twitch ban and “complications” arising from that but the real reason is unknown at this time and the doc himself hasn’t commented as of yet.
For those who aren’t familiar with this public figure. Dr. Disrespect or Herschel “Guy” Beahm IV is an American Internet celebrity, current YouTube streamer, and former Twitch streamer.
Beahm had accumulated more than four million followers on Twitch and is best known for playing battle royale games, such as H1Z1, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Black Ops 4: Blackout, Call of Duty: Warzone, Apex Legends, and Fortnite. His streams are known for having a high production value. His estimated net worth is about $3.5 million.
His first ever video was posted on the 11th of January 2010 and showed gameplay of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. He was then featured in numerous videos for the gaming channel Machinima where he mostly played Call Of Duty.
He went quiet from YouTube in late 2011 and didn’t add any content for almost five years.
The Doc was appointed the community manager of Sledgehammer Games in March of 2011 where he was promoted to Level designer. He then helped to create many of the multiplayer maps for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.
His on-stream persona is known as being brash, ruthless, quick-witted, and obnoxious. He is seen in the streaming industry as more of an “entertainer” than a “professional gamer”. ESPN has even previously described him as a WWE in the competitive gaming world.
This latest ban poses the question, who will Dr.Disrespect upset next and who will see fit to ban him. He has always been a controversial figure and with that persona comes the risk of ruffling feathers.
Only time will tell what the future holds for the Doc and we will be here bringing you the latest details.
