xQc permanently banned from GTA Online roleplay group

After been banned from it twice before, Twitch streamer xQc has been kicked out of a GTA Online roleplay group, possibly for good this time.

In lieu of an actual Grand Theft Auto TV show, many watch a Grand Theft Auto Online role-playing server called NoPixel, where streamers get together and take on various roles within the game, such as cops, criminals, and even simple shopkeepers.

One such streamer who is regularly involved with the server is Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel. Or, at least, he used to be involved, as the most recent stream has ended with him being banned… again.

During said stream, xQc killed a cop, prompting those playing as the police to arrest him. xQc, however, took umbrage with this as he believed that the dead cop had been metagaming and alerted the other cops after being killed.

He was jailed anyway, but many of his fans agreed with him and began to enter the other streamers’ chats to express support for him, something xQc openly appreciated when he was told of it.

This seemed to only make the situation worse, with there being reports that his fans were hostile and harassing the other streamers. It ultimately ended with his third ban, which is listed as being permanent.

One of the streamers, Kyle, directly responded to one of xQc’s fans, calling them ‘a sad f**king idiot’ for ‘jumping from some guy’s stream to complain about something that nobody did, for somebody who doesn’t even know you f**king exist’.

At the time of writing, NoPixel hasn’t provided an exact reason for the ban, but they seem to assume that he encouraged his fans to channel hop and so blame him for any harassment that may have been received.

xQc has admitted to his poor attitude and actions on Twitter and also asked his fans not to spread any hatred or believe everything he says.

This is the third time xQc has been kicked out of the server. Both previous instances were due to him, again, breaking the rules, such as using exploits to cheat.

It’s always possible xQc will be allowed back in but given that this is his third time causing trouble, NoPixel could finally draw the line and ensure his ban is permanent.
