In 2023, many big streamers switched from Twitch to Kick. One of them was BruceDropEmOff, who had previously been banned from Twitch several times and was initially very happy about the deal. Now the streamer is back on Twitch and explains how terrible his year on Kick was.
Who is it about? The streamer BruceDropEmOff switched to Kick in 2023 along with other big streamers. The American with over 1.3 million followers had been banned from Twitch several times before. Kick apparently offered the streamer an exclusive contract binding him to the platform for a year.
The year is now over, and since June 2024, the streamer can be found again on the Twitch platform. Although he was initially very happy with his switch, he now describes his time at Kick as “the worst time I have experienced while streaming”.
He probably signed a contract there that bound him to the platform for a year, as that’s how long the creator was with Kick. Now the streamer has returned to Twitch and reports how bad it was on Kick.
A streamer has now faced the consequences for barking at a 6-year-old:
Things are happening behind the scenes
What experiences did he have on Kick? Initially, BruceDropEmOff was very satisfied on the streaming platform. However, the longer he was there, the more insights he gained behind the scenes.
“It’s the worst time I’ve experienced while streaming. The beginning was cool, but I learned so much about how things work behind the scenes and so much that it kind of spoiled my love for streaming, to be honest.”
In the stream clip on Twitter, he states that Kick is only about the really crazy things. Anyone who doesn’t participate is “lame”. Content that polarizes is supposed to be encouraged. For example, one should argue with someone in public; otherwise, one is “lame”.
What else bothered him? As Sportskeeda.com reported, not only the pressure to do crazier things weighed on him. He was also dissatisfied with the platform itself. In late April 2024, he complained in a live stream on Kick about the site, stating that the homepage hadn’t loaded all day.
This situation likely became the last straw, as shortly after that, the streamer announced his now completed switch back to Twitch. BruceDropEmOff is not the only banned Twitch star returning to the platform: Twitch permanently banned a German streamer – A year and a half later, he is back, crying with joy
