VTubers provide entertainment, and viewers give money as an act of appreciation and support for their work, I assume. And expectations play a part of entertainment.
How would vtubers set expectations to their potential cash cows so things like the Ame yab won't happen?

I don't think there's anything you could have done in Watson's situation. Her entire aura and streaming style caused a bunch of people to genuinely fall in love with her somehow, so she got a negative reaction from long term members when she voiced her thoughts on potential male collabs. While it seems crazy and fucking bonkers, some of the posts on /vt/ complaining about her were not jokes at all.

This is some real ass, corny ass, wack ass shit. You either go all-in and don't even bring up guys at all, or you set your expectations early on like Mori and Bae to prevent this kind of thing from happening so autismos don't get upset about it. Literally fucked the moment she even decided to talk about it.

She didn't lose anyone outside of maybe the biggest most deranged schizos, all her paypigs are still there
All the guys that drop reds like Fish, ascapade, reddude etc commented on her members post after the Q&A, and she had more likes than usual (pic related)
So, only actual schizos felt offended by an advice to better themselves if you're worried about any kind of male interaction. She interacts with males all the times for her projects and never collabed with men in 2 years, I doubt she'll start collabing with them now when she said in this very stream she wants to stay solo-focused.
This is the biggest nothingburger I've seen, no one outside of here talked about it, theres no clips with high views, anything, just schizo babble and this one guy desperately creating threads

It is nothing considering Mori has gotten away with worst.

That said it should be considered way more than it is. It's sad that there are so many men that just accept this. Only few other mediums can get away with unironically telling their viewers to fuck off without suffering any negative response. The first step anybody should take is to improve themselves is by no longer wasting their time or money on VTubers period.

How many well adjusted people do you think are watching VTubers? It's primary demographic is largely lonely men. They waste literal hours a week watching girls playing games or talking while "pretending" to be anime girl. There is nothing healthy about men watching VTubers.

When you say "the most mentally ill fraction of viewers", it's some absurd form of coping. It's the man making ten dollars calling the man making 9 dollars poor.

Be consistent. If you're gonna be a whore, be a whore. If you're gonna be an idol, be an idol. If you're gonna try going from whore to idol, that's an understandable personal choice. If you're gonna go from an idol to a whore, grit your teeth.

The streamer should just set their limits early and do it clearly.
My own oshi does this: she sets out the rules clearly and everyone follows them. If you watch her, you know exactly what you're getting into and you know her stance on various issues. That's one reason why we go along with her occasional selfish whims.

>> No.28525225

>>28515178
Ame was among the very first English generation of Hololive. Just like every generation on any company, you get to shape your culture and your fans throughout your streams, experiences and shenanigans. If you're literally testing the waters of how western fans are going to react to you and evolve *with* you, you cannot do something as reckless as shutting what could be a big part of them down, especially if your own company is testing if your branch is even worth the risk.

Bae on the other hand, is from the second gen. The EN1 girls already went through all these happy and tough times, they've introduced memes, they've had yabs, and we already got a feel for what they do, etc. With this, Bae already knows how people react to a western chuuba and the types of fans that exist in these parts of the world (or at least the parts that predominantly speak english) so she can absolutely take that stance and nip the gachikois in the bud from the get-go.

Now, what I think happened here is, a this point in the present, either Ame thought that her fanbase would know her well enough to know that having group collabs with guys wasn't going to ruin anything between them or change her behavior, or she just isn't aware of how fucking gosling teamates get (probably because they might all release their hormones here and on the Ame discord server or something)

On that note, has Ame unironically done GFE or GFE-ish type streams? I don't think her telling you guys about how her life goes counts, so if she hasn't, this all might be a (You) problem.

>I don't think there's anything you could have done in Watson's situation
Seriously? All she had to do was emphatically state that she'll still provide the same content as before. Instead she went with a nonsensical comparison between viewers and co-workers, and insulted her viewership.

>> No.28525774

>>28524341
Yeah, Fauna does this too. She has made it abundantly clear that we shouldn't think of her as our pretend-GF, but that she hopes we can enjoy her content regardless. She's respectful about it and never talks condescendingly to her audience.
(She even accepts that some people may not be able to help themselves, but the point is that she has already made her stance clear, so they can't then come later and complain that she tricked them in some way.)

twitter trannies act like idol culture is some hidden parasity
no, every talent is aware of it, and they all choose from three options
1. actively crush it (Fubuki, Ina)
2. actively promote it (Rushia, Lamy)
3. passively benefit from it, somewhere in between (most holos)
if the streamer youre 'protecting' from idol culture doesnt fall into category 1, youre retarded
Ame is in category 3 and thats fine
it only gets annoying when category 3's pretend theyre category 1's, like every redditor in this thread does

But was never her core content and was only a very few streams on special occasions (valentine). It's wild to me how many viewers latched onto her for GFE when she never gave me that vibe since debut. She certainly does not go out of her way to provide GFE like Rushia or Lamy, but she does share a lot of her interest with teammates.
I dont believe Ame really wants to provide GFE, and if updating viewers about her daily life end up attracting bunch of unicorns, I can definitely see her slowly cutting back on that and end up like Gura who is more or less treating it like a job.

this is what im talking about, you think they're dumb
"oops I accidentally didnt shut down the unicorns"
they know they'll get some unicorns if they dont actively shut it down like fubuki and ina do
any content creator sharing as much as ame does inherently creates a parasocial relation, and everybody know it

I dont want to protect her from shit, but she hasnt been very passive about the situation has she? Ina retweeted the annoucement and Kiara/Gura is abasically radio silent. The only two actively engaging with star are ame and calli. If Ame really is Cat 3 like you said, then she could have just done what Ina did with a simple acknowledgement instead of trying to actively crush it.
If she wasnt, she is actively transitioning to Cat 1.

Kinda funny seeing the contrast between how Mori and Ame handled the situation. Ame took a mocking tone and made a really stupid point while being condescending.
Mori was very understanding and asked that viewers don't bother other people if they don't want to collab with the boys and don't ship with them either. And Mori isn't GFE even a little bit. Weird timeline we're in.
