>>58229026>>58229033Because it's not about the chumbuds, you retards. A new gen's debut is posted all over the place - here, Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, even other Holo VTubers' streams. The entire point is to draw in a large audience, especially of new fans, which is why literally every debut stream has more viewers than subsequent streams. People are flocking to check out what all the fuss is about.
And when, during the crucial period where new talents can grab the attention of either existing fans or tourists, Gura decides to suddenly show up and overlap their streams, those potential viewers have an equal chance to watch a fledgling as they do to watching someone that already has a fanatical, already-established fanbase. Gura doesn't NEED new viewers because she's already makign bank off of memberships from people that are payign for literally nothing. However, whether those new people stick with watching Gura or not, the entire point is that Gura is scalping them from the new girls as much as she's stringing along her fence-sitting members that are considering moving on.
Nobody gives a shit about the chumbuds that only watch Gura and watch literally nobody else, people are upset because she is actively hampering the growth of her new coworkers. Look at the fucking stream numbers in this post
>>58217141 Even if you assume that 10,000-12,000 of Gura's viewers are diehard Gura fans that will watch literally nobody else (a generous estimation), that's still thousands of people that are drawn away from Advent during the buff weeks.
