Why do you participate in chat?

I've enjoyed getting into Vtubers the past few months but I don't understand the logic of participating in chat. Unless your Oshi has <300 views, she's almost guaranteed not to see what you say. When she does its usually because 1000 other people are saying the same thing. No one else is responding to you. A lot of it's just posting the same string of emojis that everyone else is. Yet everyone seems to do it, so clearly I'm missing something. So why do you do it?

I don’t?

>> No.50144419

>>50144285
I usually only bother during members' streams, because there are fewer people posting. I've maybe gotten Gura to read my comment once or twice during a normal stream and I think it was the same stream, but she has read it a few time during members' streams. It's easier to get Gura to read your comments if you green text them in the chat, which I find funny.

Most viewers just lurk.
Have you ever heard of getting one guyd? they do real plenty of random shit
Also a lot of them have read my comments before.
Posting the same string is like joining on one of those waves normies do on sports or screaming in concerts, it feels good to be part of the herd for once.

Rarely. Sometimes you can get them to reply to you simply by being the quickest to say something.

I watch a mix of decent number corpo VTubers and sub 4 digit VTubers certain girls have read my chats and i'm even grey
>people are saying the same thing
Just don't mindless type "cute" "lol" etc. when the crowd is doing it
> No one else is responding to you
A lot of times I will get a few random @s from the other viewers that think I added to the stream or didn't know about something that I chatted, I do have a personal rule to not return @ though because you're supposed to be focused on the stream/streamer.

The point of chat is interaction that you normally wouldn't get between you and a talent or maybe even a group of like minded people, you don't have to use it and it may not even enhance your enjoyment but some people it does.

I do it to entertain myself. It keeps me engaged with the stream since I can't chat if I'm tabbed.
It's funny they never read my chat when I'm trying to be helpful or otherwise. It's always when I'm just full on shitposting and being stupid that I get read.
I do feel a bit satisfied seeing chat react to the streamer reacting but then I get shy for like five minutes.

if something funny or amusing pops in my head while listening i'll just type it in chat. no skin off my back writing some passing thought that'll drift into the ether anyway, maybe another chatter will have a laugh

Talking with chat is boring because chat is usually extremely boring, guess that's why I never really enjoy vtubers

I agree with you

The "chat" is a hive mind of spamming emoji's and same shit

However, that makes it so much easier to get spotted if you write something thats actually is saying something that has a glimps of an independent free thought

My oshi's both have araound 6-8k views, and they read my messages pretty often

My oshi has read my comment and name out loud several times and I'm not even a regular chatter.
Sounds like a skill and oshi issue.

Since you used Mori as an example I’ll say that I’ve had several specific questions I’ve typed in chat be answered by her over the years. I’ve also made her laugh which is the best feeling and have had song suggestions taken during karaoke. I’m not a paypig either. It really just depends on how good the streamer is at interacting with their chat.

Participating in chat helps the streamer entertain the audience because it allows her opportunities to bounce off your post. If your message gets read and she laughs at it, it means that you're in the same wavelength and explains why you're there in the first place.
It's also good practice on your erm, "conversational skills" over the internet or at least cultivate a sense of humor. Some easier vtubers to gain the attention of is your pic related if you're "oldfag" enough because referencing old memes dredges an old memory of her shitposting on 4chan, in which she uses as an excuse to bring it up while keeping plausible deniability.

This is why I like EN vtubers, especially older ones; their experience of the internet is so similar fo mine and thus the humor is also similar.

It likely just means you're weird and autistic and your comment likely didn't leave them room for an easy response but they did find it intense enough to read.

Maybe you should start with commenting in a bigger streamer’s chat? Generally if the holo girl read your comment there is no awkwardness and you can practice getting a feel for using chat. A good streamer loves their chat.

What I like to do is find a Japanese only 2-view that's stuck while playing a very hard game (Bloodborne for instance), and give them useless advice, like "This time try not dying."

There's no way they can avoid seeing it. They won't know what it means. And if they translate it, it won't do them any good.
