Felix “xQc” Lengyel has now racked up three bans from theGrand Theft Auto OnlineNoPixel roleplay server in three months. Those familiar with the formerOverwatchpro’s streaming career know he’s an often controversial figure in streaming circles and this isn’t the first game he’s upset other streamers in. While playing in theRustOfflineTV server late last year, xQc’s actions frustrated others to the point that popular streamerShroud said he would kick xQc from the server. Although the reason for xQc’s latest ban from NoPixel isn’t exactly clear, he’s become a notorious figure in the NoPixel roleplay community.
xQc’s first ban came as a result of directly breaking NoPixel’s server rules by killing other characters without cause. While the server does encourage creative roleplaying and allows for criminal characters, some rules must be established to keep the experience enjoyable for everyone. xQc’s character, Jean Paul, is a notorious bank robber and is often chased by the cops. These antics reached another peak recently when xQc decided to exploit a glitch to bring a gun into a police department. After being confronted, he shot up the police department, and for thisxQc was banned from NoPixel for a second time.

The reason behind xQc’s third ban has yet to be officially confirmed by theNoPixel roleplay server, but there’s already lots of speculation, with some believing his reaction to an in-game jail sentence is the cause. After Jean Paul was sentenced to 224 months in jail for all of his antics, xQc was frustrated. Some of his Twitch chat members said they would “chat hop” to go grief some of the police roleplayers, to which xQc responded “thank god.”
One of the highlighted rules for the NoPixel server claims participants can be banned at any time for “breeding toxicity,” and encouraging toxic chats seems to be within this scope. xQc later posted a short statement on Twitter apologizing to his streaming audience but also encouraged them not to spread hatred and to calm down. He has also issued apologies for both his previousGrand Theft Auto Onlinebans, but it hasn’t kept him from suspension.
Although xQc hasn’t accrued the most bans in the NoPixel server, it will be interesting to see if he racks up any more or if he eventually ends up permanently banned. As of now there is no specified length for xQc’s latest ban until the NoPixel server clarifies the reason behind it. Despite his multiple bans, xQc certainly brings a large audience to the server and Jean Paul’s activities can be quite entertaining. During one streamxQc attempted a bank heist in theGTA Onlineserverwhile attached to a heart monitor, and he nearly passed out.
