General Thread v4mirai: Brought to you by Brave

Reminder: She went on a rant a few days ago saying how it isn't worth it.

And you believed her?! Never trust Doki when it comes to Marvel Rivals.

Nah, it was more like watching a gambler try to convince themselves "I'm totally not addicted".

I've seen a few things from funnygamedev before in various places on the internet, and my impression of the guy is a know-nothing twitter politicker with a stick up his ass. When your biggest claim to fame as a "developer" is your twitter activity, you're tossing a lot of rocks from a glass house.



Yeah I think this just straight up kills Idol, at least on Youtube. Google has exactly zero reasons to ever walk back a human judgement call on a decision like this, all of the twitter rage over bans and such has always been to get a human to review automated decisions. Brave has nothing to pressure YT with, either; bigger companies have tried and failed in the past.



The thing is, I think they did try. A couple accounts got monetization back, IIRC: whatever triggered Youtube's ire may have been limited to Idol at first?

Let's say Youtube noticed something and initially struck accounts related to Brave's entire EN structure because they weren't aware of the delineation between Brave's various properties.

After Brave got in touch with YT and they learned about the buyout, the non-offending accounts were remonetized but YT isn't budging on the accounts that actually pissed them off.

It's a but it makes a lot of sense to me. Aviel scamming one of the biggest v-tubing companies out of their investment money is way too on-brand.

EDIT: nvm @Kanna's Glowiest Assistant has actually done the legwork and already proved this rrat wrong. If it is Brave related it has to be botting, not donothon related, so there's that

I think it's unlikely to be botting.
According to YouTube, scams and botting are two different rules with their own ways of being handled.

Youtube doesn't demonetize for botting, they only remove the content that faked numbers. They never mention monetization at all as a punishment for it, it just goes straight to nuking the channels if its repeat offenses.

But they do say removing monetization can happen for scamming. Whatever happened to them, it has to do with scams in some way.

[ ANNOUNCEMENT ]

Hi everyone.

I made a little announcement a couple days ago on my Discord and even made vague implications of this since last year, BUT I am going to go away for quite sometime. IRL responsibilities, burnout, and some newfound passions made it difficult for me to continue being a YouTuber, so much so that I have to take some time off to go on an indefinite hiatus and think about where and how I want my life to be.

I'll be holding a week-full of streams next week and upload one more video after my last stream so we can have some time to do stuff. After that, I will pause all memberships and be inactive.

Many of my viewers might have actually expected this (they're smart creatures who figured it out since last year lmao). Whether that be through the slowdown of video uploads, not being caught up to industry happenings, inability to stick to schedules, etc.

Fret not, this is just a hiatus for a reason. I don't know when I'm going to come back but do expect some very big changes when I do.

Donothon rewards are still incoming as well.

More details on my next stream!

time to celebrate in the ways of my ancestor, fuck that dumbass

This monetizing viewbotting situation going on at Idol is a complete trashfire and it seems for all their money, Brave isn't keen on making amends or at least help with restoring those accounts.

The fact of them rasing fuss on twitter using corporate accounts shows that Brave is: 1) literal who small fry not worth parlaying with; 2) provably fucked around, thus have no legal standing.

Aviel knew what was going to happend and sold Idol before jumping ship

Nah, this is all Brave's doing. It's V4Mirai's suspicious sub counts that first caught our attention after all, Idol are just collateral.

Everything about Idol is spiritually Jewish even when Aviel left

There's a difference: Jews are smart enough to get away with it. Brave are malfunctioning Chinese bootleg Jews.

I'm too tired to write the rest of this shitpost but something about WOTC and then Cover happened in 202X.

Spoiler: Holo vs WOTC is just the exact kind of absurd premise that calls for some AI spaghetti:

Title: "Card Wars: Hololive vs. Wizards of the Coast"

When Hololive, the virtual idol sensation, unleashes Hololive TCG, the world of trading cards is thrown into pure chaos. With cards that summon giant rubber chickens, shark tornadoes, and time-traveling potatoes, Wizards of the Coast, creators of the revered Magic: The Gathering, declare war—horrified that their perfect, rule-abiding game is now at risk of being overshadowed by Haachama’s Snack Party and Gura’s Underwater Rampage.

As Hololive’s chaotic idols unleash their most absurd combos, Wizards' top players, armed with rare cards and rigid strategies, find themselves completely outclassed. In this battle of wit, madness, and meme-worthy cards, only one side can reign supreme in the world of trading card games.

Prepare for shenanigans, absurdity, and an all-out brawl that’s anything but by the book.

I have finally been of use to someone... my life has purpose.

NIJI COMING SOON BOYS! I AM TRUDGING THROUGH THE LAST FEW BULLSHIT SURPRISES IN VIRTUAREAL AND THEN WE DROPPIN THAT SHIT LIKE YOUR PARENTS DROPPED YOU

I don't really hate the guy, but he has takes that make me think that something is missing in his brain.
There is no better example that when He, Parrot and Rima are on a call. It's usually Rima: normal take, Parrot: starts with a schizo take that quickly ends as a pretty normal take, DN: Schizo/unhinged/conspiranoic take that he firmly believes in, which leaves Rima and Parrot going: "Oh DN is at it again, haha". That is not a good response or a sign of approval DN, FFS.
