Popular Rainbow Six Siege personality Alex ‘z1ronic’ Dalgaard-Hansen hit back at Twitch after he claims he was suspended for naming a person who had been harassing him for months.

Z1ronic announced his 30-day ban from Twitch on Twitter on November 27, and said he was banned for making the name of someone who has been harassing him online for months public.

“Banned for making a public name public of someone who has been harassing for months,” Z1ronic wrote. “And even put their own name in TTS donation. Trying to appeal.”

The streamer said he was banned because he “broke the rule of personal information”, even though the troll used their name in TTS donations.

“Looks like trolls with threats can always get away with it,” he continued. “Broke the rule of “personal information” Yet the name is his twitter handle, in the donation tts and such. Seems to be a career troll who had this planned for a while.”

He added the troll had more than six different accounts as well and had gotten upset with the streamer after being banned from chat recently.

One user suggested Twitch needed to review cases like this individually, to which z1ronic replied the user who had been harassing him shouldn’t even be on Twitch.

“I’m not denying fault at all. But the guy shouldn’t even be on Twitch, multiple ban evasions, and behavior,” the streamer said. “But I am confused what is “private” information at this point.”

Only time will tell if z1ronic will see the length of his ban reduced or if Twitch will keep him off for the full 30 days, but it does seem like a lose-lose situation for the streamer in this case.
