A day that will live in infamy, on November 20th, 2013, Twitch.tv admins banned v2 streamers Snowy and SPAHCRAB in the wake of the sitewide 'REMOVE HORROR' protests.
==Background==
Twitch streamer Cyghfer had his channel emoticons removed due to being in violations of copyright infrigenment (note: only 2 of the 3 emoticons actually infringed copyright).
Sometime later, it was discovered that Twitch mod Horror had approved his boyfriend's fursona NightLight as a global Twitch chat emoticon, despite violating Twitch's policy prohibitng the use of innapropriate images as icons. TL's Note: The fursona's name 'NightLight' comes from the fact that his penis glows in the dark, no joke.
Eventually, much outrage was to be had on the website, resulting in the sitewide protest of 'REMOVE HORROR', which asked for the removal of Horror's mod status, who had been infamously known to abuse his mod powers in the past.
The end result was the senseless banning of numerous streamers and the reenforcement of the idea that Twitch.tv mods are incapable of enforcing their authority without falling into a powertrip.
But that's probably not important to you.
==Tragedy strikes v2==
During the incident, v2 streamers Snowy and SPAHCRAB had were among the unfortunate casualties sustained by than hands of Twitch mod Kanthes. SPAHCRAB was banned on the account of 'streaming non-gaming content', despite streaming the entirely legitimate video game, Desert Bus. Snowy was banned due to his stream title supposedly containing a message of harassement ('Horror: A Banning Tale #removehorror'). Bark didn't get banned because Twitch cops aint got nothin on me FUCK THE POLICE.
Following the outrage of ban bonanza, Twitch.tv released a public apology for their actions, along with unbanning many of the streamers on the website who were banned, including SPAHCRAB and Snowy.
For their valiant efforts, both streamers have earned v2's very own Purple Heart medal, for going above and beyond the duties of streaming.
