Guy Beahm aka Dr Disrespect, the popular gaming streamer, has responded to the ban imposed by Twitch. In a tweet this morning, Dr Disrespect said that Twitch had not notified him about the decision.

“Champions Club, Twitch has not notified me on the specific reason behind their decision... Firm handshakes to all for the support during this difficult time,” he said in a tweet.

It is worth noting that Twitch did not specify why the streamer was banned. The company issued a vague statement causing an ambiguity about the decision.

"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,” Twitch had said.

The Verge in its report pointed out that Twitch had even refused to confirm the ban on the streamer. Nonetheless, Dr Disrespect is no longer available on Twitch.

Interestingly, Twitch had entered a multi-year deal with Mr Disrespect in March this year. According to reports, the streamer was paid millions of dollars for the exclusivity.
