ChudtheBuilder was a well-known IRL streamer on Kick who frequently got into trouble for his behavior during public streams. The platform had previously taken action against him by removing his verification badge and monetization capabilities, signaling growing dissatisfaction with his conduct.
Kick, the popular streaming platform, has issued an indefinite ban to well-known IRL streamer ChudtheBuilder following significant backlash over controversial content in his older videos. The ban represents a significant escalation from a previous 3-day suspension and signals the platform's commitment to enforcing stricter conduct standards.
The situation began with a 3-day ban imposed earlier this week for what viewers widely described as "public harassment." During his IRL streams, ChudtheBuilder was involved in confrontations with strangers who asked him to stop filming. Rather than respecting their requests, he continued arguing and filming, leading to widespread complaints.
In addition to the temporary suspension, Kick took further action by removing his verification badge and stripping his ability to earn money through subscriptions, donations, and creator programs. These measures indicated the platform was already dissatisfied with his behavior.
However, the situation dramatically worsened when older clips of ChudtheBuilder began circulating online. In these videos, he was seen using racial slurs and engaging in heated arguments with members of the public. The content sparked outrage among viewers, with many calling his behavior offensive and unacceptable. The pressure on Kick to take more severe action intensified as the clips went viral.
ChudtheBuilder announced on Twitter that his ban has become indefinite after his appeal was denied. While not officially labeled as permanent, the ban is being viewed as a very serious and long-term action with no clear timeline for potential return.
"Banned indefinitely on Kick. Find my stream exclusively on Pump from now on. Chud Army motion never stops," he stated, indicating his intention to continue streaming on alternative platforms despite the ban.
This case illustrates how quickly matters can escalate for online personalities. A minor ban can easily become a much larger one when additional controversies emerge, demonstrating that a pattern of incidents may result in dire repercussions for streamers who violate platform guidelines.
