If viewers aren't a measure of talent, then why does everybody use 2view as an insult?
There's a recognition that talent is directly connected to the amount of viewers you get.
Everyone on this board will understand if I shit on a 2view based on their viewcount, and call them trash.
But people will get angry if I raise up Pekora because of her viewcount, and call her the best VTuber.
Why is that?
Why can people accept that a lack of views is equivalent to a lack of talent, but can't accept that the most views is equivalent to the most talent?

You should if you use the term 2view. You're implicitly accepting that what I'm saying is correct.

>> No.12419212

>>12419139
Because there's more that factors into high CCV than just "talent" which you can't objectively define anyways. If you are an actual 2view then that demonstrates you're at the very least boring, which would actually indicate a lack of talent.

>> No.12419234

>>12419212
So what you're saying is low viewcounts mean you're boring. So higher viewers would mean you're more entertaining. The highest viewers would then mean you're the most entertaining. Thanks for playing.

Low view counts means you are boring. That doesn't mean high view counts means you are entertaining though, just that it's possible that you are. And it certainly is not a direct correlation.

Sorry, let me rephrase.
So what you're saying is low viewcounts mean you're boring. So higher viewers would mean you're less boring. The highest viewers would then mean you're the least boring. It is a talent to be the least boring in the field of entertainment, so they would be the most talented by default. Thanks for playing.

In what world does high CCV mean you're objectively more entertaining? XQC is one of the highest viewed streamers on Twitch and his entire shtick is screaming in a Quebecois accent and acting like a complete fucking idiot. Pekora has multiple factors that need to be considered when talking about her success. Being a 2view is indicative of failing at being entertaining. Being wildly successful as a corporate Vtuber is not indicative of being the "most entertaining". I could just as well say Rushia is the most popular Vtuber because she gets paid the most, but that doesn't make it true.

Hopefully this will help, OP! If you need any help reading the big words, don't hesitate to ask <3

>> No.12419434

>>12419380
If only 2 people consider you entertaining, you're probably not entertaining.
If thousands of people consider you entertaining like XQC, you are entertaining.
Don't let subjectivity cloud the fact that big Twitch streamers are able to entertain thousands of people. They are objectively more talented than, say, Kiara, who is only able to entertain around 2 thousand on any given day.

"You are entertaining" and "you are the most entertaining" aren't the same thing. You're changed your argument twice now. Three strikes and you're out.

>> No.12419509

Being a 2view does not at all mean that you're unentertaining. There's a multitude of factors that go into having a low/high viewcount. Your argument assumes that for some reason every single viewer makes a conscious decision to watch when that is not how reality is and I don't understand why you'd think that's how it works?

Right. Let me make this real simple for you.
In the field of ENTERTAINMENT, who can entertain the most people is king.
Thus, having the most views means you are the most entertaining. Entertaining people is a talent, so you are also the most talented.

The point of the entertainment industry is to make money, not to entertain the most people. Therefor, Rushia, who has a pathetic CCV comparatively to Pekora is the most talented Vtuber. Notice how changing your own statements and the definitions of things makes it impossible to lose an argument? At least try.

Open wide newfags and eat the airplane.

2view is derived from 2hus because hololive global back then in /jp/ had a habit of accidentally killing 2hu threads. When OPs make multiple threads posters would post lamenting those deaths ex. "Please think of the 2hus..." obviously there are no tohous in /vt/ but the old habit remained, so thus the "2view" jargon was formed. It had nothing to do with the quality of said 2view nor was it inherently an insult.

You are not any less of a fag if you acknowledge that you're spoonfeeding before you do. And if you think there wasn't condescension in lamenting the 2hu threads then you're also mentally challenged.

2view implies that there's a minimum treshold for viewership below which you're just wasting your time, not that whoever has the most viewers is necessarily the best.

>> No.12427092

>>12419323
No, because other factors can contribute to views like branding, hitting a trend or just plain old luck of going viral and being stuck in a positive feedback loop with the YT algorithm. If someone has no views after a month or more of streaming, they definitely lack talent because talent would grant them more views.

If a backpack is light, I know that there's no books in it. But if it's not light, there might be books in it - but it could also be filled with something else.
