Twitch has hit popular IRL and Just Chatting streamer RaKai with a two-year suspension, marking the fourth time the 16-year-old’s channel has been banned. On December 2, 2025, RaKai revealed on X that his account was suspended for “illegal activities.” A message on his Twitch dashboard detailed the 730-day suspension, explaining that access to his account would automatically return on December 2, 2027, and that ad eligibility would be removed until December 31, 2027.RaKai, known online as 2xRaKai, has built a following through high-energy streams and collaborations with well-known creators like Kai Cenat. His young age and repeated suspensions have sparked debate among viewers, as fans speculate on the incidents leading to Twitch’s strict enforcement.

RaKai’s Twitch suspension stems from repeated unsafe and rule-breaking behavior

RaKai’s history of bans dates back to June 16, 2025, when he livestreamed himself driving recklessly while underage. Clips showed him texting, taking his hands off the wheel, and streaming live on the road. The incident went viral on X and Reddit, prompting Twitch to remove his channel for violating safety policies. “Illegal Activities. Date Received: Dec 2, 2025. 730 Day Suspension. Ends on: Dec 2, 2027. Your account has been suspended for 730 days. Access to your account will be automatically restored after the suspension is served. 730 Day Expiration,” the message on the Twitch dashboard read. “This violation will expire from your account on Dec 2, 2027. Until then, you may receive escalated consequences if you commit another similar violation. No Ads. Ends on: December 31, 2027. If you are a streamer whose account is eligible for ads, ads will be temporarily removed from your account until Dec 31, 2027. Reason, Illegal Activities. Where the violation occured, VOD.”The latest suspension follows a series of incidents, including a November 17, 2025, livestream where fans reported RaKai “humped the camera” and used fireworks indoors. Clips and viewer commentary suggested that he also handled a device intended for adult use, which may have contributed to Twitch labeling the violation as “illegal activities.” The combination of reckless behavior, unsafe IRL stunts, and possible explicit content triggered the extended ban.

RaKai reacts to his recent Twitch ban

Taking to X, RaKai shared his thoughts following the ban. He wrote, “WTF” with a screenshot of the dashboard. At only 17, RaKai’s career faces a crucial crossroads. His past shows a pattern of high-risk streaming behavior, but he has a dedicated following eager for his return. Twitch’s strict enforcement highlights the platform’s commitment to safety and content guidelines, reminding all creators of the consequences of unsafe or illegal actions.Also Read: Twitch under fire as Asmongold demands Amazon intervention over Nina Lin controversy Go to Source
