The mysterious drama continues surrounding Dr DisRespect and Twitch. Yesterday, Doc returned to streaming on YouTube, in what was his first live session following his Twitch ban. Everyone wanted him to answer questions related to that specific matter, and so he did.

Dr DisRespect was banned from Twitch in June. No one knew the exact reason behind his ban, but many speculated that it had something to do with his contract or because of reported communication with Mixer. Doc shot all rumors down when he stated that he is not aware of the exact reason behind his ban on his Twitter handle, some days later.

After a long gap, having teased his return a couple of times, he finally appeared on YouTube yesterday, much to the excitement of the gaming community. However, Dr DisRespect commented that he still has no idea why he was banned. The streamer stated that there were no proper communication channels.

“We still have no idea. We have no idea. Yeah right! I’m not buying that one. Bunch of phonies! We have no idea. And I’m going to tell you this right now. As far as I’m concerned we didn’t do anything to warn a ban. Let alone, how they went about banning us. No communication before, no reaching out, nothing.

“The problem is there are people in the community that are anxious for an answer, so what that does, it creates a level of urgency and speculation. And I think it’s just a f***** cockroach approach. Period. Last thing I’m going to say about it.”

Now, regarding his further proceedings, Doc is looking to move with things legally. An action against Twitch could bring about some new light to the issue and the community might just have their answer.

“I have to be intelligent on all this, because you are talking about a heavy contract, lots of money. There’s big money involved. So, let the legal professionals do what they need to do. That’s it.”
