A notorious ban evader, known for using the username Deadpool (among other aliases), has once again found themselves at the center of controversy. Despite previous efforts to curb their toxic behavior, new evidence suggests this individual is continuing to spread extremely aggressive and vile behavior towards women, including the use of slurs, hateful comments, and even death threats.

This isn’t the first time the community has dealt with this situation. Level Up Blog previously held a town hall earlier this year to address the concerns in reports relating to the ban evader’s behavior. The goal was to get to the bottom of the allegations and how to resolve the situation. It’s been a few months since then, and here we are again.

Streamers sound alarm on Twitch ban evader

According to streamers, the violence points to the ban evader’s use of multiple aliases to evade bans and infiltrate more than 100 online communities, continuing the behavior without consequences. In particular, women streamers have reported being targeted with slurs, harassment, and violent language, creating a toxic environment that has left many feeling unsafe online.

It's happening again..

While over 100 communities have reported the ban evader, they continue to deny all allegations—just like he did the last time. Despite mounting evidence, they maintain that none of these claims are valid, dismissing them as false accusations. This deflection only further frustrates the victims and their supporters, as their history of evasion and toxic behavior becomes more undeniable.
