Pokimane Exposes ‘Gross’ Twitch Messages From Banned Fans

Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys is easily the biggest, most popular, and most successful female streamers on the Twitch platform, and has received harassment from crazed fans.

Pokimane posted a video on YouTube last month exposing some of the messages she has received. Pokimane has received death threats as well as, what she calls, “gross” messages.

“Prior to looking at unbanned forms, I have my mods go through them and kind of remove the ones that are really bad. But today, I’m going to YOLO and just show you guys everything,” Pokimane said (h/t Dexerto).

“In the past, it was just me reading this day in and day out. But at least now, I can turn it into content, and we can all laugh a little bit. So, at least I finally get something out of it,” she continued.

“The bottom line is… please just stop. I’m going to keep banning you,” Pokimane pleaded. “Some of these really gross me out, and I don’t want to have to read these when I’m trying to play games with my fans. Thankfully my mods delete these most of the time.”

“I need to deny [the unban requests], but that doesn’t mean you can’t change [and] that doesn’t mean you can’t chat in my stream. It just means you’re going to need to make a new account,” Pokimane added.
