The Allegation
Popular Twitch streamer Nadia Amine has taken to social media to claim that she has been blacklisted by Activision from participating in Call of Duty tournaments for posting bikini pictures. Nadia, who has around 1.2 million followers on Twitch, accused the publisher of having double standards for men and women, stating that men can get away with posting their bare behinds on social media while bikini pictures are apparently a step too far. The streamer's accusation has sparked a heated debate on social media, with some supporting her claims and others expressing doubts.

Activision's History of Bans
Activision has a history of blacklisting Call of Duty players from its professional circuit for various reasons, but past bans based on social media activity have been primarily related to hateful and toxic behavior. The publisher's decision to ban Nadia for sharing bikini pictures is seen as unprecedented and has raised questions about the company's policies and practices. Nadia's previous claim of being prevented from participating in Call of Duty events for sharing bikini pictures further adds to the controversy surrounding the publisher's event roster decisions.
The Debate and Response
The debate surrounding Nadia Amine's accusation has brought attention to the issue of double standards in the gaming industry and the treatment of content creators. While Nadia's supporters rally behind her, others point to past allegations of cheating at Call of Duty events as a possible reason for her ban. Activision, known for not publicly explaining its event roster decisions, is unlikely to officially comment on Nadia's claims, leaving the debate unresolved and the future of Nadia's participation in Call of Duty tournaments uncertain.
