>>80002223That explanation is disingenuous and it feels like you and the people who track numbers are just upset that their favorite chuuba didn't think to do something like that first. There's no rule or precedent anywhere for this line of thinking, it feels like it only exists to maintain the status quo
>>80002339This thread and this board are hardly "everybody", and I think the general culture here is evidence enough of why people on /vt/ try very hard to brush away Cookie's existence. Accepting her would mean that Gura isn't #1 anymore. Still a great and very popular chuuba, but people act like she would be worth less, and would love her less, if she wasn't recognized as the most popular.
But like I said, the VTubing sphere is much, much bigger than this board and the companies who popularized it, and Cookie's sub count is proof of that. They can try and fight it all they want, but the numbers don't lie
