Cody “Clix” Conrod has claimed “huge” lessons have been learned after Epic Games stripped him of his Supporter-A-Creator (SAC) code a decision taken after the Fortnite<\/a> pro tweeted a joke in which he suggested he drugged a girl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The player, who represents NRG Esports, is a popular figure in the Fortnite scene, boasting a huge following on Twitter (1.7m+) and Twitch (3.9m+), and he now says he realises that such a huge following means “setting an example”.<\/p>\n

“Gonna start being more mature on stream & all social media platforms,” tweeted Clix on 16th May. “Learned a huge lesson about the creator code stuff, I just love fucking around and being myself but with the huge community I have, I needa start setting an example (sic).”<\/p>\n

Though Clix did stop short of making an apology and also said that while he will change, he doesn’t intend to become “fake”.<\/p>\n

Clix tweeted: “I’m gonna still b myself i’m not lettin anyone change me or make me fake my personality, just needa stop the stupid overline shit (tweets that’ll affect contracts\/epic games etc) (sic).”<\/p>\n

NRG Esports, who Clix signed for back in June of last year, has not commented on the incident though you have to think someone may have had a quiet word with Clix’s teammate, Williams “Zayt” Aubin, who tweeted the same joke, word-for-word, as Clix did in an apparent protest of Epic Game’s sanctions. The tweet was subsequently deleted but not before being screenshotted for prosperity.<\/p>\n

As well as stripping Clix’s Creator Code, Epic also sought to have the ‘box fight’ maps that bear his name renamed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Creator Codes are a huge part of many in the Fortnite pro and influencer scene’s income, Tyler “Ninja” Blevins recently revealed that at the height of his fame he earned almost $5m a month from the scheme<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
