A Twitch streamer has had her account suspended after she allegedly went live while "pleasuring" herself to an audience of over 5,000 viewers.
A young streamer, going by the handle @aielieen1, has been banned by the site, for now at least, reportedly because of her provocative behavior.
A content producer on the platform shared the allegation on Twitter, writing: "Just when I thought I saw it all...streamer aielieen1 went live on Twitch pleasuring themselves fully nude to over 5k viewers, and subsequently was banned off Twitch."
"This has many people debating how long her ban would be, as a previous streamer banned for having sex on stream only received a one-week ban, whereas Jidion was permabanned for hate raiding Pokimane," they added.
Check out the tweet below:
Although Twitch has not confirmed the length of the user's ban, people are speculating that it is permanent. Brand new accounts that immediately break the rules are typically banned permanently, to prevent further misuse of the platform.
Now, if you click on the channel's page, it simply states that the user's content no longer exists and that they are "currently unavailable" due to a violation of Twitch's Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.
The Amazon-owned platform enforces a strict policy against explicit material, writing in its community guidelinesthat "nudity and sexually explicit content or activities, such as p*rnography, sexual acts or intercourse, and sexual services" are prohibited.
"Content or activities that threaten or promote sexual violence or exploitation are strictly prohibited and may be reported to law enforcement," it adds.

This isn't the first time a streamer has been banned because of their actions on the site. The news comes after a separate viral incident which saw popular Twitch user @Kimmikka temporarily banned for allegedly having sex on camera.
A clip of the incident circulated across social media, and it showed the woman's face as she tried to stay serious while responding to comments from followers and apparently simultaneously engaging in x-rated activity.
While the viral footage did not show any nudity, the reflection from the window revealed just enough, and showed her boyfriend's face as he seemingly stood behind her.
Kimmikka's unusual facial expressions during the livestream also sparked speculations which eventually led to a ban. However, she called the incident a "drunken accident" according to Twitterand was shockingly welcomed back to the site a week later.
In addition to this, back in 2020, a man even took it as far as suing the video platform for $25 million after claiming there were too many "scantily clad" female players on the platform.
Erik Estavillo, from San Francisco, said in his lawsuit, obtained by Sportskeeda, that the players caused him to masturbat* so much that he ended up causing harm to his penis.
According to the court papers, Estavillo is a sex addict who "heavily relies on the internet" for entertainment, and his condition was exacerbated by the platform during the pandemic.
A complaint was filed in the County of Santa Clara’s Superior Court on June 15, 2020, and stated that the man followed 786 female gamers, but no male streamers.
The outlet stated that a spokesperson for Twitch said that the man's lawsuit is "frivolous and has absolutely no merit" and the California Court has effectively denied his claims.
