## Controversies

Susslord has stated that he does not stream with female gamers out of respect to his girlfriend and to avoid the rumors that such streaming could create. He received mixed reactions; some said that he should set an example and not make it more difficult for female streamers to rise to prominence, while others supported his stance, claiming that he should be allowed to do what he wants to protect his relationship. In response to his critics, Susslord has reaffirmed his support for gender equality and restated his commitment to his relationship, and mentioned some prominent female streamers by name. He has also made clear that women are welcome to play with him in a group or at events, saying that such situations allow him to "control the narrative more, without stupid drama and rumors flooding into our lives."

A popular youtuber once visited Susslord's Voice Chat during a stream. This youtuber then proceeded to say the N-word, causing the susslord to shut down his stream and delete his VOD. He has not since commented on this event.

In December 2016, Susslord released the address of a donator as retribution for having a racist screen name. This act, which is referred to as 'doxxing', is against the Twitch rules, which states they can result in an "indefinite suspension". Susslord was reported for this act, but only received a 48-hour suspension, which some believed was a result of Susslord' large audience on the platform. Susslord later tweeted that he "deserved" the punishment.
