I’ll quote another comment from minimaxir:

> You're joking, but a quick Google search of [site:livecoding.tv banned] shows that's exactly what is happening.

> https://www.livecoding.tv/2pointoh/

> https://www.livecoding.tv/hekton/

Which shows their usual procedure for deleting or banning is... vandalism.

Hi, I am Janne Koschinski, a 19 year old female Computer Science Student from Kiel, Germany.

I don’t know who you think I am, but this is the most ridiculous claim I’ve ever heard.

Proof of not being this "alex" here: http://i.imgur.com/G7qo5qn.jpg

Thanks for giving me a laugh in my math lecture, though.

Now for the legal part:

I will send a written copy of this to your mailing address as listed on your website.

Okay, you won the internet for today!


I just bought stamps (haven’t sent a letter in years, and they don’t seem to have fax) to send them the Cease & Desist in mail, too.

Let’s see what’s going to happen, if they don’t react at all, I can still go down the legal path.


Do you think youtube/twitch/... don't face these issues? Have you ever come across a youtube account that said:

BANNED FOR POSTING PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGES ON LIVECODING.TV BANNED FOR POSTING PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGES ON LIVECODING.TV BANNED FOR POSTING PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGES ON LIVECODING.TV

No. They just delete the account. I don't think many people would want to join a website where the CEO vandalizes user profile pages, regardless of the reason.


No one is buying your false narrative, you are managing to make a bad situation worse. You're going to lose your status as a YC company over this.


This reply along with the libel on the OP's profile tells me that there's a culture of naming & shaming on LiveCoding.


Wow, trying to doxx people is just the lowest.


And failing at it, despite my contact information being public everywhere!

I’ve volunteered in a child daycare for 2 weeks a few years ago, and even those children – age 3 to 6 – behaved more mature.

What does make me sad, though, is that his co-founder was caught in this fallout, and his reputation will be stained by this.


hi, just wow, if i ever thought that livecodingtv could screw up this situation any more, you found a way.
