in the article there's a quote basically saying that if the chats are merged and someone drops a niiigger people wouldn't know where it comes from and that is bad for twitch. You have to understand that actual retarded people run the company so the rules only make sense for someone with retardation. If you were to cut amazon's money twitch goes up in flames in 4 months, amazon is the only reason they can operate the platform in such a dumb way.
