RESTARTA

RESTARTA is used to express the desire to restart, reset, or begin something over from the beginning. It's commonly employed when things are going poorly in a game, stream, or conversation, and viewers want to suggest starting fresh. The emote can be used both seriously (when a genuine restart would be beneficial) or humorously/sarcastically (when things have gone so wrong that a complete reset seems like the only option).

RESTARTA is a 7TV emote that was created and uploaded to the platform in 2021. The emote features a stylized restart button icon with a circular arrow and the word "Restart" next to it, along with a cursor pointer hovering over it, mimicking the appearance of a computer or application restart button. The emote became popular in various Twitch streams as a way to express the desire to reset or start over in different contexts.

The emote is typically used in several contexts: when a streamer is performing poorly in a game and chat suggests restarting; when technical difficulties occur during a stream; when a conversation or situation has become awkward or uncomfortable and viewers jokingly suggest "restarting" the interaction; during speedruns when a runner needs to reset their attempt; or when a streamer makes a significant mistake early in a playthrough. It's also used ironically when minor inconveniences happen, exaggerating the need to start completely over.
