Jinnytty reveals bizarre reason behind fourth Twitch ban

Twitch IRL and variety streamer Jinny has been banned for a fourth time, and the second time in 2022 alone, this time for a fake boob she wore as a joke months prior to her ban.

A member of TSM since October, Jinny has had her account suspended on multiple occasions previously, twice for violations related to dangerous driving. Back in October 2020, Jinny was banned for reckless driving on a scooter.

She was then more recently banned in August 2022, after once again crashing while riding a scooter, although it’s not been confirmed if this was in fact the exact reason for the ban.

As of November 12, Jinny’s Twitch account is once again suspended.

Why was Jinny banned?

Jinny was actually streaming on a different channel, Crown, on November 10, sparking some confusion about why her own account was banned.

On the Crown channel, which was also featuring fellow streamers FanFan and SupCaitlin, Jinny was showing ‘magic tricks’, using a questionably shaped foam object.

Jinny responded on Twitter, saying, “I got banned cause of this sponge c**k magic show are u kidding me I’m dying laughing legit not even sexual but Twitch being ridiculous not the first time.”

However, she went on to clarify that the ban was not actually for the sponge toy, but for a “fake boob” she wore some months ago as a joke. She said: “OK IT WASNT THE C**K WHEW BUT IT WAS THE FAKE BOOB I WORE AS A JOKE MONTHS AGO HUH?”

It does go some way to explain why Jinny’s channel specifically was banned, but it raises questions as to why it took so long for Twitch to take action if the TSM star was deemed to have committed a bannable offense.

Despite this being her fourth ban this year, Jinny’s channel currently states that it is temporarily unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines, so the suspension is not permanent.

As of November 12, she is still banned on the platform.

Twitch does not comment on community guidelines violations to protect the privacy of users.
