“They just removed them, dude. So, I lost like two million followers I think. Oh, the followers mean nothing to me. I mean, the number itself.”
As per Twitch, there are over 7 million fake engagement accounts on the site. With the help of constantly improving machine learning technology, the platform is aiming to remove such accounts as soon as possible. Hence, it is safe to assume that many big Twitch streamers will soon suffer a fate similar to xQc.
Social Blade significantly decreases xQc’s total grade
Fans around the world rely on websites like Social Blade to know about the statistics of their favorite creators on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Twitter, and Instagram. Alongside providing numbers such as subscriber/follower growth, Social Blade also assigns a ‘total grade’ to the creators.
Surprisingly, the website has termed xQc as a D- streamer, which is one of the worst grades possible.
While reacting to the same, popular Twitch steamer Asmongold admitted xQc deserves a better grade for his consistent efforts.
Even xQc was surprised to witness his grade, as he was expecting it to be over A++.
