previous violations should not remain on your record forever
I was just wrongfully indefinitely suspended, as in it was very quickly lifted as a "mistake on your end." I have two twitch accounts. The twitch account that I was currently streaming on received 7 days, but my second twitch account that I was NOT streaming on was indefinitely suspended immediately. My second twitch account has not received any violation in 3 years, and yet it received an automatic indefinite suspension... and again, as a mistake on your end. No TOS was actually broken on either account.
My point is, something that happened 3+ years ago should not punish us the same way today. The length of time that has elapsed should be taken into account. Just like traffic violations (such as speeding tickets) and car accidents. Nothing stays on your record forever, and nothing should. There should be reward for doing better. Not having something in the past linger over you for the rest of your twitch career. PLUS sometimes these previous bans were for things you actually decided later on are now allowed today.

I completely understand your frustration. Twitch’s punishment system really should take into account how long ago a violation happened and whether the rules have since changed. Something from 3+ years ago shouldn’t affect you today, especially if you’ve been streaming without issues since then. It would make sense to have a kind of ‘clean period,’ just like with driving records, so past mistakes don’t follow you forever. In the meantime, try not to dwell too much on the unfairness — sometimes I distract myself by browsing things like https://trinityrental.com/rent-ferrari/ferrari-portofino-mansory-taurus . Daydreaming about luxury helps keep a positive mindset.
