gotta share this one here lol
Punkalopi/Enya Ignis just revealed the shorts game she played attracted a shitter audience of children that made her miserable to do anything with her channel because it ruined her community and they were all tourist morons. I know we've supposed this, but she has outright stated it now and confirmed our suspicions.
Some other quotes:
Timestamped - (stream is live as of posting)
- "If I do shorts, I risk having that again"
- "Rin and I shared our grievences over the shorts audience before. We've talked"
- "I got viewers I liked, but like 90% of it......"
THE Pipkin Pippa explained that the stupid-faces thumbnails get picked up by the algo itself. It's not meant to appeal to anyone or make randos click. It appeals to Google-Skynet's broken and inept AI and the benefit is unfortunately palpable. It makes jewgle put your videos ahead of others'.I don't doubt it for a second.
This is why I get frustrated a lot of the time when people talk about YouTube/Twitch "metas", because so much of the conversation usually centres strictly around immediate impressions, video views, and livestream CCV counts, rather than long-term sustainability.
Shorts get views, flavour-of-the-month meme game streams get views, goofy faces in the thumbnail get views etc., but it's a short-term boost rather than a long term strategy for success. These "meta" shortcuts almost always attract a lot of kids who have a habit of not reading the room and shitting up the livechat (before getting bored because you're not giving them attention, helping tank your average watch time), rather than people who are genuinely potential long-term fans.

Can't believe the dog jannie unleashed a plague of mold upon our innocent vtuber hobby with Pippa...All Hail Mother Mold!

To add more unneeded evidence, we saw twink mecha pilot princess carry Bettel. We've seen Bettel irl, 127lb isn't much for a guy but it's still not that easy to carry. And he came in fast and didn't seem out of breath at all.
I remember people were rratting that Flayon is a big black guy in that one picture well I was watching old clips and apparently Flayon is jacked so that's more evidence to that rrat
The guy is just short and skinny, makes Magni and Altare look tall.127? Is he really short or something? I thought he was tall. I know Americans are fat as shit, but the average woman in America weighs 170.5 pounds. Dude is in the healthy weight range of a 5 foot 4 inch woman.

Re:AcT got a second death threat and bomb threat, this time directed at the 2nd gen's live on 29 June.
As before, they will go on with the live show implementing similar security measures. They got through the first threat without any issues so they should have the experience with organising the measures.
