Why he was accused of being a pedophile

Hashinshin was banned from Twitch streaming platform after he was accused of "grooming" minors. HITC's previous report explained that more and more young people are currently aspiring to be professional gamers.

Many people argued that gamers could be considered as the new "rockstars" in this generation. Since gaming personalities can easily influence the individuals who are following them, they have a huge responsibility. A single controversy can quickly end their career.

Hashinshin's career faced a downfall after he was allegedly reported harassing a 15-year-old girl. Reports also stated that multiple women also shared their experience with the popular streaming, saying that Hashinshin talked to them inappropriately when they were underage.

One of the victims is Maya "Caltys" Henckel, a League of Legends pro. She shared her story on Twitter, providing proof of Hashinshin's behaviour, outlined in Google doc's form.

Hashinshin later apologized for the incident on a Twitter thread."I'm sorry to all my fans who I've let down, I did engage in inappropriate conversation with teenage women," he said.

"This isn't who I want to be, and although I've made many strides already to better myself as a person I am going to continue to better myself in the future..." he added.
