Twitch streamer known as Central Committee has received a ban from the platform.
This punishment came after they made a comment suggesting they would pay someone $100,000 to harm another streamer, Destiny.
In a clip that has since been taken down, Central Committee, also referred to as Mike from PA, hinted at making threats against Destiny.
Mike said, “If you live in Florida, I have an opportunity for you. If you want to earn $100k, let me know.”
On November 9, Mike addressed the ban on Twitter.
He confessed that he “deserved the ban” and admitted that the “joke wasn’t funny.”
Currently, it’s unclear how long the ban will last.
In response to another user, he questioned, “Why would it be permanent?”
Before this incident, Asmongold, who had also been banned recently, spoke out in support of Destiny.
He mentioned plans to bring Dan Saltman, who hosts a podcast with Destiny, onto his stream if Twitch did not take action.
Mike from PA, the streamer better known as Central Committee, faced a ban from Twitch after suggesting he would pay someone $100,000 to harm fellow streamer Destiny.
In a now-removed video, Mike implied that anyone in Florida could earn the money, saying, “If you want to earn $100k, let me know.”
On November 9, he took to Twitter to discuss the ban and admitted he “deserved it,” acknowledging that the “joke wasn’t funny.”
The length of the ban remains uncertain. Mike replied to another user, questioning, “Why would it be permanent?”
Prior to this issue, Asmongold, who himself had recently dealt with a ban, had spoken out in defense of Destiny. He indicated that if Twitch didn’t respond, he would invite Dan Saltman, co-host of Destiny’s podcast, onto his stream.
Asmongold remarked on the seriousness of the situation, stating, “I think Twitch has a huge moderation problem. If they don’t ban him for this, I will bring on Dan from Destiny’s show, and we will review everything together on stream. This crosses a dangerous line.”
Destiny was previously banned from Twitch in 2022 and has been streaming on Kick since then, attracting around 1,000 live viewers on average. His podcast, “Anything Else?”, often gets viewership in the six figures.
This incident isn’t isolated; there have been previous cases where streamers encouraged their followers to take serious actions with cash incentives. For example, in April, another streamer offered $30,000 for someone to “disappear” over a disagreement regarding the video game Stellar Blade.
