A Twitch streamer, known as QueenGloriaRP, was recently caught using a viewbotting tool during her live broadcast, leading to her immediate ban from the platform. The incident, which has since gone viral, highlights a growing issue of streamers using viewbotting tools to artificially inflate their viewer counts.

While streaming, QueenGloriaRP accidentally revealed a panel for her viewbotting tool, which appeared on her screen for a brief moment. The clip was quickly captured by viewers and circulated online, with many accusing the small streamer of cheating to boost her popularity. In an attempt to cover up the mistake, QueenGloriaRP later claimed the panel was part of an OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) update, though this explanation failed to convince the majority of viewers.

The viewbotting tool displayed in the clip showed a token-based system for buying fake viewers. According to the panel, users could pay for artificial viewers, with more viewers equating to more credits—specifically, 10 credits for each viewer per hour. This revelation shocked many in the gaming community, especially given the fact that QueenGloriaRP was seen paying for the fake viewers.

At the time of the incident, QueenGloriaRP had around 3,600 followers on Twitch. However, following the backlash, Twitch banned her from the platform within hours of the viewbotting debacle coming to light.
