The online gaming community received a major shock when Dr Disrespect IRL Twitch stream from the E3 gaming convention suddenly went offline, his channel disappearing from the website’s directory.

As for Ninja, he first reacted with similar style to Tfue’s tweet, posting an image of himself wearing steely sunglasses, a long blonde wig, and a fake mustache, and including a cheeky caption.

“Mr Respectful would have never slipped this hard,” he tweeted.

However, the superstar streamer made his position on the matter much more clear in a response to esports insider Rod ‘Breslau’ Slasher, who had tweeted that he believed Twitch made the correct decision in choosing to suspend the Doc. 

It’s a no brainer dude,” Ninja replied. “I love him, but when you break the rules, you get punished. It’s that simple.”

At this point, it’s not clear how long Doc will be prohibited from streaming on Twitch, although it’s likely to be no more than 24 hours.

Considering his prominence as a celebrity streamer, there is a chance that the platform could choose to make his suspension shorter than what it normally would be.
