Dr Disrespect posts another sneaky cryptic update as he plots streaming return
Disgraced streamer Dr Disrespect has made yet another stealthy change to his social media accounts as he plans to return to content creation.
In June 2024, former Twitch employees came forward alleging that the reason Dr Disrespect, real name Guy Beahm, was banned from the platform in 2020 was forsending inappropriate DMs to a minor.
Doc would eventually confess to these claims in a now-deleted tweet, announcing that he would be taking an extended vacation with his family and would be on a hiatus from streaming.
In the weeks that followed, the streamer would begin to test the social media waters by making a series of changes to his X account.
On August 21, Dr Disrespect changed both his profile picture and header image on X to photos of him with his brand’s theme, suggesting that he’s officially in the preparation stages of a return.
This follows a long list of small changes to his X account. First, he edited his header image to afishing bobber with his logoin a stormy sea.
Following this, he posted an image of himself sitting at a chess board while his opponent played with checkers pieces. He went on toattack users in the commentswho brought up his scandal. But that’s not all.
The week after, hedeleted his confessionfrom X and went on to reiterate that he would bereturning to streaming, claiming, “We’ll be back soon” and there would be “lots to talk about.”
It’s still unclear where Doc will stream when he comes back, asmany companies ahve cut tieswith the streamer after he admitted to the allegations. While he hasn’t been outright banned on YouTube, the platformdemonetized his channel, leaving him little reason to broadcast there.
