Twitch streamer Brunenger has made his return to the platform following a two-year ban, marking the occasion with a celebratory broadcast.

We’ve seen endless amounts of streamers forcibly removed from Twitch, though their suspension is normally short-lived.

In the case of Brunenger, his Twitch ban resulted in a nearly two-year absence from the platform. His mere presence affected the livelihood of other creators too, including the likes of TheGrefg, who was banned for featuring Bruneneger in a record-breaking stream.

Now, after continuing to create YouTube content and remain in the streaming community, Brunenger’s Twitch account has been restored.

On December 2, the Twitter account @StreamerBans revealed that Brunenger had “been unbanned after 1 year, 8 months, and 4 weeks!”

It didn’t take long for Brunenger’s page to breathe life once more and the Argentine/Spanish-speaking streamer hasn’t hesitated to spread the word.

“Thank you all for the support this year and a half banned,” Brunenger said in a social media post to his fans.

The streamer continued: “We are finally back, I’m waiting for you all this Sunday 4/12 at http://Twitch.tv/brunenger to celebrate an epic stream of the return.”

Brunenger was originally banned for showing a toy weapon on his stream, which as a result was flagged by the platform.

Others have taken the opportunity to welcome him back into the streaming world, with Team Heretics posting, “after almost 2 years justice was done. Welcome back to Twitch.”

Brunenger’s first Twitch stream since last year will occur on December 4, though a specific time has yet to be unveiled by the streamer.
