This BLEW UP: a prank in ARC Raiders, a kill by streamer peaachxo (Peach) at the hands of NessieDoes, spiraled into a ban, DMCA strikes and police threats 😳
Peach involved a community manager from Embark Studios, NessieDoes was immediately banned and later restored after the studio admitted the mistake; he was still restricted from servers and meetings. Peach filed DMCA takedowns on an explanatory video and used personal data to threaten police. The episode coincided with co‑founder Rob Runesson's exit and provoked criticism about streamer privileges and biased moderation.
