Why is RatedEpicz considered a controversial streamer?

RatedEpicz is one of the most prominent GTA 5 streamers and roleplayers. However, his career has been marred by numerous controversies, ranging from getting banned from the NoPixel server to facing various allegations.

In April 2023, the Twitch star was removed from the NoPixel group after Koil, the creator and developer of the RP server, revealed that he had violated their terms of service.

Koil wrote:

"Recently, we removed a figure from our community for violating our terms of service and have sourced legal advice after verifying multiple severe claims. There are very certain lines we will always draw which are always very clear."

Not only was RatedEpicz banned from NoPixel, but he was also removed from Chang Gang.

While the exact reason for his removal from Chang Gang wasn't disclosed, months before these incidents, the streamer faced allegations of homophobia and being emotionally abusive.

RatedEpicz was also involved in a controversy with fellow GTA streamer Lyndi. According to him, Lyndi attempted to extort money from him.
