Just what I've seen today. This is a video by Rimmydownunder where he set up a whole mission in Arma 3 and brought a bunch of vtubers to join in on the fun.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wzX05rKksY

nobody you will probably recognize, lotsa indies. It was great fun watching this vid. Might see if I can find some other fun clips from the vtubers perspective.

Yeah I watched this whole thing live, it was fantastic.

Felt real bad for, Lumi? I think her name was. The moth lady. Had to learn the hard way how to be combat medic while chaos was unfolding around her. She was so stressed out the whole time.

I wish people would stop being mad about Fluffdaddy. He might not fully "get" V-Tubers, but he doesn't have any personal grudges against you all, and he isn't beholden to anything QCS tells him to do. He's trying to help make this thread and SA a more welcoming environment for people, and I feel bad that people are taking all of this as "just concern trolling". Yes, there are people who are posting about this, mad because they just hate all anime or want some good lulz so they pick on an easy target, but there are genuine concerns from a lot of posters, not just those that you see in QCS, and wanting to implement stricter rules was my idea, because I think it will lead to a healthier thread environment overall.

I mean I don't horny post so rules about that are good! ...but when the qcs thread is calling literally everyone in the thread a pedophile it's like, cool. There's no possible unhorny thread rules that will satisfy them because the entire idea, to them, is unacceptable. and you know, being called a pedo is loving insulting

so when you have admins who by their own admission aren't and don't want to be involved 3-day probing that guy for a) posting you know an actual tweet from the actual tuber and b) was a joke in response to the drive-by threadshitters and just taking cues from the people who are lying, misrepresenting or again, calling everyone loving pedophiles, it's like ok. w/e

What about Strongbad?

Personally, I think the thing that distinguishes Vtubers from previous instances of people acting out animated characters is the tracking tech. It's a big part of what allows it to be live entertainment rather than pre-recorded videos, because the digital puppeteering can be done on the fly in real-time even when the actor's hands are occupied with something else (like a game controller).

That isn't to say that all Vtubing has to be live, there's plenty of Vtubers who do LPs and other pre-recorded content. But being able to catch live reactions, vs having to plan and script out movements to go with your content after the fact, is a definitive difference IMO.

I'm mostly bothered by how the crux of Fluff's (and all that QCS thread's) point is NOT just, "ban the horny." No no no! Their point has been "the whole thread should be banned, because none of them are free of sin." We're all getting lumped in with Dongicus, who is universally despised in this thread and is ALREADY threadbanned and constantly being probated for breaking the threadban/being horny.

you understand dongicus was not actually coming in here and being earnestly horny, right, like on top of fluff also not being in that other thread going 'yeah! and i'll burn them all down!'

misrepresentation from here is just as shithead a move as misrepresentation from qcs, albeit with different stakes

It isn't speculation, it's paraphrasing. And yes I guess it wasn't specifically you calling for that, just the 10 people you were chatting with in QCS. Sorry to lump you in with them unnecessarily! It's almost like that hurts or something! WEIRD

Ironic shitposting is still lovely posting. I know he was ~trying~ to imply that all of our posts were like his. But fact is, they aren't, and we already regularly get rid of that poo poo.

Cover did a great job of keeping this all under wraps. I'm impressed. I was NOT expecting an extra member, but the weird lack of connection between IrYs and the Council, in retrospect, does imply something else is going on, on a meta level.

I agree with everything Fluffdaddy mentioned. Like, it's not a hard rule to follow: "Don't make horny/thirsty posts" seems like a fairly easy thing to do. Along with the other stuff (like trying to find personal info/doxxing material about the V-tubers) from the rules, seems like a no-brainer, tbh.

Also holy poo poo, this thread can move hella fast.

the Gen2 teasing lore stuff wasn't that interesting in the first place, but after watching hours of debuts, each with the same lore trailer at the start, and then watching a collab where they go over the lore stuff themselves trying to make sense of it? i have no more energy for teasing and slow-drip content

It feels like a strange departure from normal operations to suddenly create a character for management like that, existing management characters have wound up being created internally by the talent.

This person may be a Ryushen-type. Vocaloids have been cultivating producers/songwriters in search of singers for a while.

I really like Omega's design (maybe not whatever's going on with the shoes, but the rest is great so I'll let it pass) and if this is a touchpoint between the staff and the talent like A-chan like suggested that'd be fun. (Omega rather than A/alpha? I can see it)

Of course, this could just be an "ordinary" 6th member along the precedent that IRyS set and, hey, additions to the five-man-band formula (which Cover seems to like sticking to when recruiting) are age old. Still, makes me wonder how they'll handle Gen 6 on the Japanese side

When people are getting probed for posting tweets and quotes from the talents themselves it's a bit off.

The new debuts were all fantastic, if a bit nervous. Excited to check out their next streams.

Edit: Like of course things are going to sound weird when people are posting quotes from an ongoing livestream. The context is in the stream that half the people in the thread are watching.
