The streamer ItsPinkie was banned by Twitch when she wanted to test the “new guidelines.” She held bikini streams and planned to do so for the entire week. Twitch seems to have put a stop to that.
Who is the streamer?
- Despite having 48,900 followers and the Twitch partner status, ItsPinkie is considered one of the smaller streamers. On average, around 60 people watch her.
- She usually smokes in her streams and shows people how to roll the perfect joints. Her YouTube channel often revolves around joints and drugs as well.
- The streamer often presents herself relatively revealing and even dances occasionally on a pole dancing pole.
- On May 4th, she announced on Twitter that she was banned after trying out the “new guidelines” on Twitch.

Why was the streamer banned? She wrote on Twitter:
Lol, I planned to do bikini streams for the rest of the week to see if the new Twitch guidelines would get me banned. It turned out to be true! I’ve been banned for 3 days now.

What “new guidelines” was the streamer talking about? That’s the question, as Twitch has no new guidelines regarding revealing clothing on streams. The rule still stands: bikinis and swimsuits are okay on beaches and near pools, but not in the home.
The platform even introduced a corresponding category, which some streamers criticize: “Pools, Hot Tubs & Beaches.”
However, it seems the bikini may have been a bit too revealing, as a user commented under her tweet: “(…) I was concerned that your bikini shows too much (…).” Whether the streamer was also in her 1-room apartment and not at a pool or beach, we cannot say at this point.
It is therefore suspected that she was banned for sexual content and nudity.
Why did the streamer receive further bans? ItsPinkie probably caused the most stir by farting from her genital area. In a stream, she proudly showed how she could control this and held the microphone close. Here’s a clip of it, but it may not be to everyone’s liking:
When the clip went viral, Twitch banned the streamer.
Furthermore, it often happened that ItsPinkie appeared too revealing and was banned because of her outfits. Usually, the bans only lasted a few hours or days before she was allowed to stream again. And in this case, she can go live again after 3 days.
