Summary

- Twitch CEO Dan Clancy mentioned a potential lift on Ross’s ban pending genuine behavioral improvement.
- New Twitch ban policy may be opening a path for Adin Ross to make a comeback.
Adin Ross just gave an update on his push to get unbanned from Twitch, and he’s sounding hopeful about making a comeback. The content creator got permanently banned from the platform in February 2023, with Twitch later pointing out that the decision was due to his choice to allow offensive and unmoderated comments in his chat during a stream.
Adin Ross used to be one of Twitch’s top names, racking up over 7 million followers. While on the Amazon-owned platform, he faced eight suspensions – seven of which were temporary, followed by a permanent ban. The streamer didn’t seem too bothered at the time, since he’d already jumped to Kick, a streaming platform backed by Stake. Lately, however, Adin Ross has been interested in returning to Twitch. Back in April 2024, he made a public plea to lift the ban, saying he was sorry for what he did before and wanted another chance.

Adin Ross dropped an update about his Twitch situation during a recent interview with FredTalksFighting on YouTube. When asked about where things stand with the platform (timestamp: 4:06), Ross sounded positive, saying he’s been working with Twitch on a fix. He’s pretty sure he’ll be back soon, maybe even faster than people think. It’s worth mentioning that Twitch CEO Dan Clancy has talked before about possibly lifting Ross’s ban, stating that any decision would depend on the streamer showing genuine behavioral improvement.
Twitch’s New Ban Policy Could Pave the Way for Adin Ross’ Return
Only time will tell if Twitch will undo Adin Ross’s permanent ban, but new rules on the platform might help him out. Twitch now has a setup where some ban-causing mistakes get cleared after a certain time. Even streamers with permanent bans can ask for a review after six months, opening a door to get back on. This change has already likely brought back Gonzalo “ZeRo” Barrios, who got unbanned nearly five years after being kicked off. With that example, Ross may have a legitimate chance at returning.
Even with the Twitch ban, Adin Ross has found big success on Kick, building up over 1.5 million followers and sitting as the second-biggest streamer there. In recent months, many started talking about him possibly leaving the Stake-owned platform, but he stopped those rumors, saying he’s staying there for good. Kick clearly sees his worth; CEO Ed Craven even gave Adin Ross a Rolls-Royce for his 23rd birthday. That makes sense, given Ross’ ability to attract massive audiences with record-breaking streams – most notably, his high-profile interview with President Donald Trump.
