>>70088533>Ironrat the most shameless, coldly calculating cloutgoblin when it comes to gauging whether interactions are worth it or notThere was no reason to single out ironrat because most successful vtubers are exactly like that.
You won't usually see big Niji JP chuubas collabing with literal nobodies, graduated members or controversial vtubers. Hololive is the same with added "no male collabs" because those are usually not profitable, unless there's a big fat cheque attached to a shilling collab.
If you look at the list of holomem ranked by their popularity/success, you'll notice that the lower you go, the more "real" and less calculating they are (read: more outside collabs with low CCV chuubas, more likely to male collab or yab, and so on).
And finally, let's address the elephant in the room. Most 2views or 3views are willing to abandon their whole channels and fan bases for a chance to use that sweet golden ticket to fame at any of the top companies, but that's not calculating? This whole industry is based on calculations and manipulation, and you know it. It seems that pink rat's haters aren't even trying anymore.
