Just a day later, on June 16, the automated account @StreamerBans confirmed RaKai’s second suspension from the Amazon-owned platform. Attempts to access his channel now display a message citing violations of Twitch’s Terms of Service or community guidelines. The circulating clip has intensified scrutiny over Twitch's enforcement of real-life conduct during streams.
RaKai acknowledged the situation during a Just Chatting broadcast hours before the ban was made official. He explained he couldn’t go live because Twitch had launched an investigation. In the clip, he remarked: “I thought I was over… I wasn’t able to stream yesterday because they needed to do an investigation or some bulls**t.”
Public reaction on platforms like Reddit and X has been swift. One user on r/LivestreamFail questioned the platform’s delay in taking action, while others criticized RaKai’s behavior. Meanwhile, some speculated whether Kai Cenat might intervene on his friend’s behalf.
As of writing, RaKai has not issued a formal statement regarding his suspension. His Twitch channel remains suspended, and the platform has not commented on the duration of the ban.
