Lt weekend it took place in San Diego (California, United States) the Twitchcon 2022 , an event organized by the well-known streaming platform to connect its creators of content, fans and other professionals in the audiovisual industry. A fair with more than 30,000 attendees that had been held since 2019 due to the coronavirus and that, seen what w seen, that nobody is surprised if it is not celebrated again . Full of problems and incidents, the networks cry out before this edition and k for explanations, meures and changes before The eternal mutes of the purple company .
Break your back live
Some of the most popular moments of the event took place during the battles between content creators , who played to break down on rubber pools with some pseudo-swimming churros. So far it sounds childish, fun and harmless , but nothing is further from reality. The floor of these pools w not well padded, and the accidents proliferated among those who fell into the well. There were multiple wounded and injured, is the ce of the streamer cockiness, who dislocated his knee and twisted the ankle , or that of her companion Adriana Check, who * broke her back in two parts * And it h had to be operated urgently.
Now the participants turn against Twitch, but the company had kept their backs and made them sign all an agreement in which the exempt of any responsibility. None of those involved may report the platform or get help from the help from the Sure to pay according to what medical invoices. Twitch h not issued a single apology or explanation in this regard .
Abuses on Twitchcon
But not only have there been physical injuries, but also emotional. Many sources echo The null consideration of the event by people with reduced mobility and there are those who say that staff members were traveling to people in wheelchairs for the same rooms again and again, not to take them to what are that were not enabled for them .
At the same time, during the photocell, the interviews and comments of the live, Engendering's ces (to make a gender when referring to someone or not changing their pronouns or after being clarified) w constant by the members of the organization. But worse, the users who complained about the situation and noticed it in the different chats of the platform were banned of it and silenced . The Twitch poster in First Dates would be clear. Inclusive, but only sometimes .
However, the worst he to light thanks to creators like Lewd wife, who h exhibited on a Twit longer that several people of the event were harsed by third parties and that even suspect that they were thrown drugs in food and drink . Serious accusations supported by several companions by profession and that, by not intervening Twitch, h led to a witch hunt by the community . Many users have indicated inadmissible that there were YouTubers such Callmecarson present and accredited even with several ces pending by abuses and scandals related to minors .
Racist jokes and fighting threats
Twitchcon 2022 w full of tense moments in which someone approached the streamer on duty with an unfortunate comment or out of place. And of course, The best friend of many of the people present is not a dog or a cat, but a camera , so most are recorded. This is the ce of the incident with Havana, with more than 2 million followers on the platform. Recognized for his political commitment, the streamer w saulted by citing Sam Hyde, a comedian accustomed to joking about Jews and other minorities and that accumulates several accusations of anti-Semitism for it. The result? A quite unpleant fighting threat .
Of course, it will not be a Twitchcon that goes down in history and we will see if it does not suppose the lace for the fair , which already h less relevance than you would expect to be the star event of the leading leader platform of the streaming world. Spanish representation h been little (if not any) and in recent months It is not that the flowers between organization and creators rain . Aaron h already explained that he would leave Twitch and IAI threatened with the same thing. To the rhythm to which things go, who knows what will be from the sector and companies like Twitch in a few years.
