The channel of publisher Guy Beahm aka Dr Disrespect, who has 4.7 million subscribers on YouTube, has been closed by the platform. The new blow came from YouTube after it was revealed that Dr Disrespect’s 2020 Twitch ban was caused by inappropriate messages he sent to a minor via Twitch’s whispering feature.
A YouTube spokesperson provided a statement to IGN confirming the company’s decision: “Following serious allegations against the creator, we have suspended Dr Disrespect’s channel from the YouTube Partner Programme. This action means the channel will no longer be able to monetize on YouTube.”
Before this, Turtle Beach ended its partnership with Dr Disrespect, who was also expelled from Midnight Society, the game studio he co-founded, in 2021. Although Dr Disrespect initially denied reports of any wrongdoing, he later admitted texting with a minor. However, the broadcaster insisted that he had not done anything illegal.
“Were there Twitch whisper messages with a minor in 2017? The answer is yes. Were there real intentions behind these messages, the answer is absolutely no. These were casual, back-and-forth conversations, sometimes leaning too far toward the inappropriate, but nothing more. “Nothing illegal happened, no images were shared, no crime was committed, I’ve never even met this person.” wrote Dr Disrespect.
Although Dr Disrespect still has a large number of subscribers on YouTube, his inability to use the platform to make money may force him to look for a new publishing house – if he sticks around. What are you thinking? Please don’t forget to share your thoughts with us in the comments section below.
