Content creator Quvonn Rakai Linder has been issued a two-year suspension from Twitch, marking the latest setback in what had been a rapid rise on the platform.

The 17-year-old streamer, known online as RaKai, had amassed more than 1.8 million followers and regularly drew audiences in the thousands before the ban took effect. Twitch has not confirmed what triggered the decision, though two incidents within 48 hours have come under scrutiny.

The first incident centred on a Fortnite wager with fellow streamer Clix. RaKai entered the challenge with a gifted 99-0 lead but still lost after failing to secure a single elimination. The agreed-upon wager required him to pay Clix $6,500, but he refused, telling him, “Guess who not getting they money? You, you ugly b***h. F**k you.” Moments later, RaKai’s stream went offline, and he later showed a warning on his account citing “Illegal Activities.”

A second incident occurred the day before, when RaKai streamed himself taking flowers without paying and handing them to a bystander. When asked, “Did you already pay for them?” he replied, “Yes I did.” The situation drew comparisons to the recent ban of Nina Lin, who was suspended after streaming from Target while taking items without purchase.

Twitch subsequently issued a 730-day suspension, lasting until 2 December 2027. Attempting to access RaKai’s page now leads to a standard ban notice. This marks the sixth time his account has “violated” platform rules, following previous enforcement actions, including a June suspension for streaming while driving and looking at his phone.

Although some streamers, such as Adin Ross, have had lengthy bans overturned, it remains uncertain whether RaKai will return to Twitch or pursue his career on another platform.
