Twitch streamer Jenelle Dagres, known as IndieFoxx has been banned for a second time within a week after writing subscriber's names on her body and cleavage. It's unclear how long this ban will last for or if her account will get reinstated. 

Since IndieFoxx started streaming in 2017, she's pulled in over 200,000 followers and streamed for over 3,000 hours according to Twitch Tracker. 1,200 of those hours she spent in the Just Chatting category, talking with her fans, doing yoga poses, and even doing covers of Radiohead. 

On Thursday, Dagres received a three-day suspension on Twitch after a clip of her in a swimsuit in a jacuzzi picked up on the subreddit LiveStreamFails. Streamer JakeNBakeLive had pulled up her stream, asking if the swimwear was "see through in the back." The clip was upvoted nearly 2,000 times and her channel received a suspension shortly after it was posted. Dagres posted a clip on Twitter showing that the swimsuit was in fact not see-through. 

After the three-day suspension was up, Dagres was back to streaming and sharing her unique brand of content. In her first stream back, she wrote the names of those that subscribed or donated to her on her body in marker. This isn't new content for her — over the past few weeks she's done this same gimmick multiple times without receiving punishment.

On Monday morning, user happypenguin posted the clip of Dagres writing on herself with marker with the title "Twitch allowing girls to write big donator names on their breasts." The clip quickly made it to the top of the LiveStreamFails subreddit, pulling in over 16,000 upvotes in just under a day. The post was locked after a few hours, not allowing any new comments, with the mods writing "Aight, thread's about done here. Locked - getting too out of hand."

Three hours after the post went up, Dagres' channel was banned according to the StreamBans bot on Twitter.

Dagres responded on Twitter to LiveStreamFails, saying that the sub is "harassing and bullying people" and that "this is the most disgusting toxic place on the internet for streamers." She also tweeted that she was not writing names on her breasts "for top donors" and that the two names she did write in the clip were "on (her) clavicle to look like tattoos." 

The ban lasted for only three days before Dagres got her account back. She went to her Twitter to share her thoughts, mentioning that her content "is just high conceptual art."

Update 2/23/21: Dagres was banned two more times over a two day period. The streamer received a one-day suspension for "inappropriate attire" claiming that she just "played guitar for 3 hours from bed."

The next day, Dagres tweeted that she been banned again, this time for her offline banner that she claims she's had for "over a year." She has now been banned four times in one month. 

Twitch's community guidelines specifically prohibit "sexually explicit content and activities" as well as "sexually suggestive content." Twitch does not typically comment on individual streamer bans, so it's hard to know how they were evaluating Dagres' content. Neither Twitch nor Dagres immediately responded to Insider for comment.
