RuneScape 3 Twitch streamer Aus Swag had both his Twitch account and RuneScape accounts permanently banned, as a result of instigating a girl with self-destruct thoughts to commit suicide during his stream.
Instead of accusations and denouncement, the viewers from Twitch community who had witnessed this horrid process previously surprisingly followed suit with a worrying amount of laughter. But that didn't last for a while before one of the streamer's friends pointed out his Twitch account was getting banned, turns out to be a true story.
Twitch, who was showing up first, issued a punishment towards the streamer with a permanent suspension of his Twitch account. Along with a severer punishment of shutting down all his RuneScape accounts, including the max account and other alternate ones, RuneScape publisher Jagex also condemned the streamer's horrible comments with a stern public statement.
For your information, a max account effectively involves completing and maxing all content available in the game. Considering RuneScape is an 18-year-old game, that's a huge amount of content to get through. For any RuneScape players, getting and sustaining a max account means that inevitably invest thousands of hours and a load of money in it.
But today, we are not talking about what the appropriate actions both Twitch and Jagex have taken against the streamer and his comments, neither will we focus on how deep and sincere the repentance the steamer has shown in a later announcement. What we are keen on digging out is how low and obnoxious a person could be by limitlessly making a joke of someone else who is currently out of desperation in public. Not slightly intend to defend the guilty streamer or trash the girl on air with severe suicidal thought, there would be a proper simulation of the original scene at that moment: The streamer, along with his friends and viewers was all hyped up by some videos, comments or some shared in-game experiences among the community. And somehow, a girl with the suicidal attempt called this streamer on phone instead of her own families, friends, or therapist, purely out of her mind or not, knowing the place and the person she was seeking for was made for public entertainment, not psychological counseling. And unluckily, while the streamer picked up that call from this girl, maybe in the heat of the moment or just out of misreading the intention at all, he was lashing out at the girl and messing up the situation for both of them.
Twitch is known for one of the most renowned online live video platforms that loads of participants stream on a daily basis to get more followers and make a living from. It's all business & entertainment in there. I bet no one at the very moment would see a suicidal phone call coming at that place. They were all immersing themselves in the world in the game and that hilarious guy on the other side of their computer screens, without even knowing there is somebody else suffering in the real world in the ways they can't even imagine of. The whole objectives, in or out of their computers, are the butt of their jokes. There isn't even a humane part of heart they hold during their Twitch time. Their indifference and scoff to another human being's illness and wellbeing are so astonishingly spontaneous that no one can tell a difference between them and monsters.
