>>37773560>I don't care for male vtubers or mixed collabs but I mean what the fuck it is literally nothing.You have to put it into context. As a small corpo she has 150 viewers tops on a very good day. Those break down into four groups:
- The very rare few who found you on their own as their first vtuber.
- Fans brought in from the small corpo eco-system, i.e. you learned about Production Kawaii because you saw a collab with Phase Connect
- HoloEN refugees, the bulk of which don't want male collabs on principle, and who are very likely to have found the company in the second half of 2022 after Tempus shat up HoloEN.
- NijiEN refugees. They may not be opposed on principle to male collabs, but in practice if they left that company it was after the faggots from Luxiem and later waves turned it into a dumpster fire.
The vtuber she interacted with was Alban Knox. Now NijiEN males are obnoxious creeps even within their own company, but lately they've developed a reputation for crashing small female 2view/3view's streams as a way to derail the chat and get fawned over. What's hilarious is that to date they just do that and leave, the grooming never results in so much as a Twitter callout for the 2view, nevermind a collab or anything that could theoretically improve her numbers.
So she interacts with this guy. Instantly, the HoloEN refugees are pissed because they're here explicitly to avoid males. The NijiEN refugees are pissed because here's one of the faggots responsible for ruining what they liked, following them into a different company's stream to ruin that too. That's 50% of your fanbase demographics you've upset out of hand. Your ccv is low enough that if even 20 of them leave you lose a visible chunk of income. Meanwhile the nijifaggot is just going to leave, and if you're unlucky his batshit fujo fanbase will get riled up because you didn't show him enough respect. Of course you damage control. You damage control as hard as you can because you stumbled on a cocktail of resentment that goes way beyond just 'interacted with a male'.
