One the biggest streamers onTwitch, Kai Cenat, has learned that one of his moderators has been scamming viewers to make some extra cash. According to data released by StreamElements in October, Kai Cenat is third on the list of top 10 content creators on the platform, following Gaules andcontroversial Twitch streamer xQc.

Earlier in November, Kai Cenat was online with fellowTwitch streamer xQc who said he doesn’t pay his moderatorson the platform, and Cenat said that he doesn’t either. A couple of weeks later, on November 23, one of the streamer’s viewers notified him that a moderator called Seclvded had banned them from Cenat’s channel for no reason. When the decision was appealed, the mod demanded that the viewer pay $3.00 via Cash App to be unbanned. Note that the video of the interaction contains some colorful language.
Upon learning about the moderator’s behavior, Kai Cenat was understandably unhappy and became further upset when Seclvded began putting laughing emojis in the stream chat. “You’re laughing, bro? Like, I’m genuinely not laughing,” the streamer said. While some people suggested that perhaps the mod had been joking when asking the viewer for money, Kai Cenat explained that he was taking the situation seriously and did not find it funny because his moderators represent him.
One has to wonder how long the moderator had been extorting Kai Cenat’sTwitchviewers and why they thought it would not come to light. Some people have said that, perhaps if the content creator paid his mods, Seclvded wouldn’t have felt compelled to try to get money in such a questionable way. However, both Cenat and xQc gave reasonable answers for why they don’treimburse their Twitch moderators, and either way, voluntarily doing a job for free does not excuse someone who is exploiting their position for personal gain.
