Last time on /fvr/:
>Brolime has a stream about behind the scenes stuff; the countdown ends with "lol drama is gay"

Phase Connect's Pipkin Pippa (and eventually Panko) designed a parody VTuber company with AI-generated art. Some of her fans played along and it outgrew the joke to become an actual indie circle (with Pippa's blessing), using a corpo-style gen structure and AI art as a kickoff point. Some of the talents have reached 3views, it is only time for complete FlaVR domination.
The first few designs were made on these streams:

▶Juwun: https://youtu.be/LB3lC7iokAI [Open]
▶TXC: https://youtu.be/vZUhQec0v8I [Open]

GOOOOOD MORNING /FVR/!
We had some interesting events happen overnight while I was away. Can't keep calm for one minute, can you? Either way, let's get the upcoming schedules out of the way
Nyana will be streaming on Friday and Saturday, collabing with Abby on Friday in super bunny man and play guitar hero on Saturday. Make sure to tune into for yellow cat and feesh!
Juwun will be streaming tommorow, and I'm looking foward to what his schizo stream is, things like that are always interesting.
The guerilla gang is still around so keep an eye out for notifications for those unannounced streams!
Finally I'll be leaving you with today number, a nice relaxing song, "White rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane

Man, I just followed Sawa into this place, I'm scared. Especially when Nyana was crying on Stream about this.

So what I'm getting
>there's conceren about the Kuro account being considered "official"
>It's getting messages unironiclly telling them they should do more for the talents despite being a meme account
>The original group decides that they need to emphasize they are indie circle, not a corpo
>account changes name, group decides on a personal level if they want to keep/remove the tag
>Feelings about it are mixed about what to do even in the original group, some do, some don't, etc.
>Nyana thinks the post was too long and people won't read it to understand them, making it pointless
>most people will generalize it and make assumptions which might be bad and harm them
>She's even conflicted about it all anyways.
So overall something that is a somewhat logical idea (considering people like spooki keep coming up and I'm sure they dont want that) but is really poorly executed to where even some of the people who supported it have mixed feeling on it. I hope she feels better, and I'll still be watching FlaVR streams, including Sweet and Raimi.

MINTA, I NEED MY LIZARD ZATSU FIX

[Anonymous No.]

I go and take a vacation and decide to touch grass for the last week and everything is falling apart at the seams. I won’t ever touch grass again bros, I promise.

It’s my opinion that whether they have the FlaVR tag or not that they should still be considered part of the /fvr/ thread though. I don’t think there’s really any changes to make other than the fact some of the girls are just making themselves more approachable. The community remains the exact same and the girls will continue to interact with each other in the same capacity. The only thing that will probably change is the pool of new, willing chuubas interested will probably be much less often with how splintered the “brand” is now.

>>50391397
The dynamics of the group haven't changes a lot, but I do agree with Nyana that that post was a tl;Dr moment for a lot of people who see it. Some short tweet or Twitter thread about their reasons would've been a bit more digestible imo.
Seriously people's attention span has fucking cratered, God damn. It's not THAT long.

[Anonymous No.]

So what's up with the psy op is it just one schizo or is there a group? They don't seem to be around here at the moment because no one is calling everyone grifters and leeches and saying they should all graduate right now.

[Anonymous No.]

wait did people really treat this like a corpo and not a bunch of random indies using a general concept to hang out together and let's be frank give themselves a quick install base out of the gate since starting as a literal 0view is absolute hell
I only keep up with one flavr girl and I'll tell you right now if they dropped the name or flat-out reincarnated I wouldn't bat an eye

If there's nothing left of Pippa's FlaVR concept, do they even get to call themselves FlaVR any more? If you thought the complaints about grifters were bad before, they're just going to get worse and worse.

[Anonymous No.]

>>50391877
I say tourists who didn't read the doc. There are some Pippa antis, but they've mostly moved on to other angles to go after her than FlaVR.
>>50391939
Apparently. All it proves is Twitter is full of idiots who don't watch streams and can't meme. Like, come on, who the hell spams a Twitter account to get results? Hololive isn't going to make Gura stream of you DM them, a fucking meme account can't make stuff out of thin air. People need to stop taking the internet so seriously.

[Anonymous No.]

>>50391939
the main issue is the main flavr "corpo" account (that all of the talents and pippa follow) made a post that made 90% of the people who saw it think "Well, looks like FlaVR is dead, it was a good run", which isn't helped by Pippa and the other talents alluding to that end as well.

[Anonymous No.]

>>50392208
It baffles me that people were spamming that account's DMs trying to push it to give the girls stuff. Like, what? They have thrones and stuff and regularly tell you how to help them, how does doing that help?

This is a big effort post but I'll give my take on this: FlaVR was born a meme but the members made it real, they are FlaVR. But FlaVR is attracting too much drama, it gives people the wrong impression and does make it so no one "owns" it which makes control impossible. It outlived its usefulness as a meme.
But having a sort of brand that connects its members as brothers and sisters born from this wild idea that became real still serves its purpose.
Rebrand them. FlaVR under a different name is still FlaVR.
There's no point in hiding who they are and come from but they don't need to be tied to it as long as they are together.
And no longer being part of a fake corpo makes it easy to tell they are simply indies.
So what can neo-flavr be? Just a network, a private circle of friends. They could join a talent agecny or a corpo that would take them in and still be part of it. It would not conflict with them at all.
It's just a symbolical form of saying hey yeah we are still part of this but we have grown past its early form.
I hate seeing Nyana cry, it seriously hurt me. I think she does not want her group of friends to fall apart and go their own ways.
I also think they could change their names and designs slightly. Sena took a step towards that with her partial redesign though she kept the name.
Popcorn Rin could become Poppy Karin. She could lose one ribbon and get a bow and change her sweater for a hoodie.
Nyana's design changed since very very early, the only thing she retains that is the name. I am sure there are many ways to make a distinctly different yet similar name to "Nyana".

I'll even throw you a name for the group so it feels like a more plausible idea.
Call it Tast-E group or crew or gang or network, anything that makes it clear it's not a company but just an informal social circle. Is Tast-E taken? Ok then use Yumm-E instead. Don't get stuck on minor details, this is just an example.
They don't need to add it to their tag, or their name, just a small footnote on their youtube or twitter, a pinned tweet, saying "part of the Tast-E group (not a corpo) which was originally the first group of FLaVR" would seriously be enough.

A last bit, make an account for this but but keep DM's closed and don't make it very active. Just enough to show signs of life and act as a PR extension of the group that keeps its nature clear and its face but not much else.
And any sort of public message has to come in two forms, the long detailed form for people who can read and the short take for the rest.

I like FlaVR, I was there when it was created and contributed to it. Even the idea of using flavours as a theme was something I brought up on stream. I enjoyed it a lot and I don't think this would be the death of FlaVR but simply an evolution. Whether they go this path or not it's up to everyone else but I hope they can find a way to keep the dream alive despite the challenges it faces and adapting is just necessary sometimes and I want Nyana to be happy.
>SHORT FORM OF THIS POST
>SHORT FORM OF THIS POST
>SHORT FORM OF THIS POST

FlaVR is the friends we made along the way.
Rebrand would not be the end of FlaVR but simply its evolution.
It's not a company, just a group of friends, keep it simple. Slightly tweak designs and names to start fresh but no need to wipe out everything and start from 0.
Call it Tast-E or Yumm-E group,friends,gang,crew, whatever.

Look man we are past timeloops at this point.
When there's a stable status quo and people nitpick shit for no reason, just because nothing is going on and they repeat shit that has been the flavour of the month topic before that's a timeloop.
When shit is actually happening and the situation is a make it or break it moment and a crossroads presents itself where choices matter it's not a timeloop, it's the present and the moment to make a choice.
There are paths that lead to FlaVR falling apart entirely and multiple members quitting, paths that lead to them splitting off on their own lonely way but I'd like to believe there are paths where they at least remain together and the future can look bright.
But it boils down to the choices we make right now.
The choices they make regarding how they handle things but even the choices we make regarding what we support and express to them.

>>50393873
pal, nyan herself said the original group was mixed on the tag thing, and redesigning everything is not a good decision at all. Also Minta came back from vaycay and Nyana is collabing with Abby on Friday. Take a breath and slow down.

[Anonymous No.]

>>50394476
This, no reason to be alarmist and jump to a total rebranding, that just confuses the whole issue further.
Best way to do it is to treat the tweet as if it doesn't exist and just continue as normal.
If the tweet wasn't posted and this happened quietly there would be shit, but not a total fucking meltdown like whats happening here.

>>50393444
Is it just me or does this tweet read as someone skinwalking as kinolime? Doesn't really read like something she would post and for the most part she has kept herself at arms length with the rest of flavr outside of 1 or 2 collabs from what I can tell.

Ok let's wait it out.
This seems to have grown past the tweet but it's still up to the guys streaming.
If they can look past the current drama and decide they still want to keep things the way they are now that's fine.
I admit I am being alarmist in tone here but I just consider that a proactive preemptive approach, a way to avoid more potential issues down the line and take advantage of the current moment which is a good opportunity to pull this move.
I think it'd be better if everyone is on board and it can be pulled off smoothly. But if some are on the fence then it's better to wait it out.

I will say that it's never a dull moment with FlaVR. Makes me wanna speed up my debut plans so I can join in on the fun, if I'm being honest.

>>50394930
I have a feeling the DM thing has been going for a while now, and considering Sena is the high 2 view with a full rig, she's probably gotten a lot of those from new people finding her. Put a lot of stuff into context too if she's been getting these on a semi-regular basis.

This might just be a rrat but I feel like the person who doxxed Mehlo might’ve been a talent which is why they’re all leaving. And if nyana is one of the only people left then I feel like that person was either her or one of the talents closest to her.
Idk it just feels so sudden but everything has gone downhill since mehlo’s graduation.

Nobody's decided to stop streaming, it seems folks on Twitter though FlaVR was a real corpo and were spamming the main account and the girls DMs for it to support the girls. This was making it unfun to stream, and the botched how they were telling everyone they're an indie circle.
I'm seriously starting to think no one read the tweet or watched Nyanas stream on this. Like yellow cat said, It's a logical choice handled in the dumbest way.

tbf midday stream make it a bit scarce, so there's not much to talk about beyond maybe games or anime plus there's wagies who don't want to get caught by their IT department. There is convo when streams happen (reminder Sena is streaming Scribble.io today)
>>50396817
Minna put it back up, So it's the Lolime's, Abby, and Sena as of right now, who all still want to stream and are active. It doesn't seem like the end of the world and nobody's leaving it seems.
I really want Kinolime to stream, I need that CK2 Kino NOW.

Most likely me being schizo but all this drama strangely happening after juwun's first schizopost. He crossed out his name but kept the FlaVR tag. All the doxxing drama also happened after his hiatus? Correct me if I'm wrong but Melho graduated after he announced his hiatus. He's been awfully silent about the whole thing too.

Juwun Simp is gonna fuck you up if you keep that line of thinking pally.

[Anonymous No.]

first the they say that the tag removal is due to "being asociated with unsavory people that might put on the tag as well". wich most of everyone called it bullshit because no such thing has happened after the initial month of FLaVR (to my knowledge atleast)
so now they change the narrative to "people have been DMing talents nonstop" wich is very possible but you can always just set it to private?

either you give me a concrete answer or ill just stop trusting your words altogether

bruh stop trying to point fingers at people for marie leaving.
It's more likely abi (she went on break around the same time) and juwun were disenfranchised by what happened to marie at the time and decided to take a step back, Juwun has a model to debut as well (if its finished, i think thats what this upcoming stream might be)
either way marie chose to not point fingers at people so its probably best to respect her wishes

Pretty unfortunate situations, getting newcomers is great in theory so it's a shame it turned out like that.
The distinction between corpo and anything else is indeed hard to explain to many vtuber fans who are exclusively used to corpo and indie only. The new streamer talent agencies that have popped up lately are a good example that shows people struggling to understand the concept.
Remember the threads of people unironically believing Mythic was going to be shit because oh my god they accepted that nux taku grifter guy as if it was a normal corpo where membership had such weight when it's just meant to be a huge group of unrelated people who just outsource some services to the agency.
I think maybe trying to explain things to newcomers would be less disruptive than entirely removing the tag, I think having it made everyone seem like they belonged to something special. The appeal of the flavors theme is a bit lost when the "members" are no longer connected. Sena almost dropped it entirely, she's more of a bear vtuber than she ever was a cinnamon vtuber but she still mentions being a cinnamon bear on her bio and her linktree still has the FlaVR discord but perhaps she just hasn't updated that yet.
I do wish she still made some mention of being born from FlaVR somewhere but maybe she really wants to grow and move on while retaining the character and audience but not being held back by being tied to the group.

But you know, maybe it doesn't matter? If the real flavr are the friends we made along the way, does it matter if they have a tag or not? We know where they came from. Their fans know. Maybe new viewers won't but it's not something that is kept as a secret so they will learn too. On a practical level losing that uniformity does lessen the appeal of each member individually but maybe that's worth it to some of them for the other benefits.

That’s why it could be another talent that nyana is close to and the others aren’t. The concert thing is a good point though. Idk for sure everything is a rrat till anything gets proven. But nothing will get proven at this rate so it’s probably just easier to not worry about it. The only one I ever have or ever will care about is mehlo and I hope if she rebrands it’ll be relatively easy to find her.
I still think the doxxing was probably the biggest contributor to everyone leaving regardless of whether it was an inside job or not. None of them seem egocentric so I doubt any of them left because they thought they were too good for future talents. I think something bad happened.

Good post. I agree, keep it loose and informal.
Personally, I feel FlaVR should have been the original canon created by Pippa and Gen2 by Panko. There was no need to create new waves by the "community". I'm not attacking anybody that came after (I've enjoyed Mehlo, Jubi, etc.) but that's just my personal preference to keep things small and consistent, and avoiding drama.

Nothing was actually posted or found at all, so whatever was leaked was taken down/removed so fast nobody noticed it, which is good since Marie's safe. Still sucks though.

You mean games they might enjoy, or games that would get views, or games that would entertain their fans?
Games they might enjoy really depends on their taste. Games that can get views is tricky since popular stuff has more people interested but once everyone has seen a playthrough hey lose interest.
Games that can be entertaining also depends on the strengths of the vtuber.
I'd say the safest form of games for vtubers are those that provide them with a lot of stuff they can react to or comment about and have some discussion with the chat.
Stuff that has them think of creative ways to deal with situations. And stuff that can make them react in a strong way.
Horror is good because it gets fun scared reactions. Stuff like GTA is good because it's basically a movie and has a lot of fun stuff streamers can react to as well and the gameplay is open world so the vtuber can actually take advantage of it and drive around and do violence if they want. It's why those are Vtuber staples.
Visual novels let vtubers read stuff in character which can let them be expressive and try out something new.
Stuff like Phasmophobia style games are very good because they mix horror, some panic/crisis situations that make streamers scream and rush around and they put them together in tough situations where some people can pull through and be MVP's or others can be cowards and it's just in general fun and creates a lot of funny vtuber moments together.
Minecraft is fun if enough people play it so they can create stuff and react to each other's creations and if the streamers themselves either are good at creating complex stuff or have the interest in learning or are at least good at talking alone a lot and basically mining/ putting blocks becomes just a big zatsu with gameplay.
"Rare" games have a strong appeal just because they are unique and uncommon. This can apply to good old games rarely played or just niche games.
Games that are punishing but doable put streamers on tough spots and push them to persevere and the pay off from beating them is a satisfaction shared with the audience, stuff like metal gear revengeance or Mario 64.
I find games that offer players a lot of freedom also very good at letting them express themselves, take chat input and create their own fun and inside jokes with the characters and places. A good example is skyrim, I've seen vtubers spend a lot of time just travelling, doing zatsu, making builds, befriending random NPC's and making inside running jokes.

Finally I'd also say that one of the best form of game streams are games that can be completed in a few streams. 1 or up to 3. Stuff they can pick up and play and see fully completed quickly enough that their audience does not lose interest or gets left behind.
A lot of games are pretty short and can be done this way. This is one of the issues for instance that Kiara faces because she enjoys very long games and actually sticks to them which is cool but it costs her viewers retention.
When it comes to player skill a generally compatible ballpark is ideal.
Don't have a player pick something up they are far too incapable of handling, but something a little challenging for their level makes for a fun experience because people can see them learn.

So top list of my recommendations:
Phasmophobia (collab)
Minecraft
Metal Gear Revengeance
Skyrim
Mario 64
Any of the GC Resident Evil remakes
Any Gen 1-4 Pokemon game
Hatoful Boyfriend
Panzermadels: Tank Dating Simulator
No More Heroes

I would also suggest GTA IV, mostly because it one I haven't seen played and has a good story that really sucks you in. Plus we're hitting that nostalgia cycle, so we're about to get a bunch of people who are nostalgic about 2000's games, which does have some good shit.

Ok I missed GTA, I am embarrassed. Any 3D GTA is good, if they play the PS2 era games they should use the original release not the new rockstar collection version, which are just PSP ports and not the high quality originals.
4 and 5 are fine too. All GTA games have fun writing, great voice acting and solid gameplay, they all offer good gameplay freedom, they are all solid.
5 is obviously the better looking one but it's also the most played game so more people have watched it already.
Also yes Panzermadels is by the same people behind Stay! Stay! Democratic People's Republic of Korea! the satirical game that parodies the game Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~.
It's a very weird and funny game where you date the personifications of tanks, it's very simple and easy to get into it and not too long and it's not voiced so it's perfect for vtubers to make up funny character voices for each girl.

Good writing and gameplay, offers a lot of freedom, good downtime to zatsu and story bits to react to.
A well known IP but the game is not overplayed.
I think it's a solid choice. I've watched some of her streams of it.
The only drawback as you said is that it's kinda long. So it can be hard to finish and if it goes too long viewers might have a harder time keeping up.

Late to the party, but I need to vent.
I feel like this has been caused by a combination of unityfags / collabbeggars and "FlaVR is an open source project, so anyone can join". You can't have it both ways, either you keep asking and encouraging people to join, or you keep FlaVR as a small but unified group.
But what seems to have happened is that people kept encouraging others to join, while also telling the original group to support/collab with anyone who joined later.
I saw some complaining that the Kuro account wasn't tweeting about every girl, but that account isn't official or anything, so what was stopping you from creating your own account? Instead of putting the responsibility of supporting the girls you like on others, why not do it yourself? Oh, right, because that account would not get Pippa's follow, so there was no point. Better to keep asking people to join FlaVR and ask the already established group to raid/collab with them.
Let's just agree to support the girls we like and that collabbeggars deserve the rope.

If the "main" Kuro Corp twitter account created an issue of people thinking there is an actual company, then why not just delete it and stop the company larp. There are plenty of indie circles like thesouthsidegang or girlsFC that have none of these issues at all.
I also call bullshit on naming this as the reason for it after the fact. The real reasoning they initially named was "because its open source and thus bad actors could be FlaVR" and doing that right after the Niicola thing shows very clearly the why.

I also find it a bit dishonest to act like nothing changed and keep wanting to be part everything related to FlaVR like the thread and such but not associate with it officially anymore and being able to pick and choose from their side when when being a part of it is ok and when not.

I can understand distancing yourself from the project to get more of a mainstream appeal and not be linked directly to something that some may find problematic, ergo this being related to AIart, being on 4ch etc. and that is a fair choice they should have. But when you do it, then do it fully. This half-assed approach does come off as grifting because you basically say "We still wanna eat at this table and eat part of your food, but we want the ability to not have to share our food with you anymore or help cleanup afterward."

Women have a really bad problem of wanting to have their cake and eat it. This seems like one of those cases. The issue is that the way it was presented makes it look like FlaVR is done as a concept, when literally nothing is changing except a few people removing the flavr tag. Talents will still get to choose who to talk with, anybody can still join flavr, and brolime will still be menhera. Even the Kuro Co account is still tweeting about flavr talents like nothing has changed. I agree that the half-assed approach really doesn't look good.

>>50412237
So I'm probably missing some context here, but I've watched happenings with a lot of indies and small corpos and I have conflicting thoughts here.
Yes it is definitely a thing where people expect their friends (in b4 parasociality rants) to be friends with each other by pure wishful thinking, and that just doesn't work and causes friction.
But gatekeeping is a spectrum, "anyone can join" doesn't mean the thread will acknowledge it, >we still expect a vocaroo, some in-thread planning and a non-disastrous first stream last I checked
And on the other side of that, most unityfagging is more about spreading positive vibes for unity that already exists, and collab "begging" is usually more just... dreaming. Yes, anyone who gets pushy about that can help themselves to some rope IMO, but the same is true for getting pushy about a lot of other things. The real problem is with people being the wrong kind of autist and not being willing to take some Ls.

ITT there wasn't any unityfagging really, but I do recall there are times where chat will ask about other streamers, the most egregious of that was when chat asked if Minta would meet up with Kinolime or Minna when she goes to Japan. I don't think it's really that bad tho, let alone bad enough to lead to all this.

The kind of people who can remain regular fans of a 2view are a very particular breed, and almost always they want the audience to grow because growth = success in that mindset. I've seriously seen people suggest collabs based on, approximately, "hey I know another chubba who is the same kind of animal-girl".

If i had to guess/rrat, FlaVR members were getting DM either on Discord or twitter repeatedly by someone they didn't want to deal with who kept going "we boTh pArt of FlavR, LeT's ColLaB!" or something similar and didn't take a hint. So they decided on this, but botched the announcement hard.
>>50416892
Fucking exactly, amen anon. Just make a tweet thread saying that the "main account" isn't actually managing shit or something, DM aren't open, and the girls collab with who they want to. This is just fucking stupid because, to quote Nyana, "people have the attention span of a goldfish", and are going to come to the most basic bitch conclusion. Plus it's literally sounds like a fucking corpo announcement, when the entire point is to tell people your NOT a corpo, but an indie circle.

What worries me the most in this, is that it clearly wasn't one agreed upon decision at all and it seemed like people kind of got strong-armed into going along with the removal. Nyana clearly was sad about it and really didn't want to remove it at all, going by her stream and how she put it back. This and the removal of the tag being a response to Niicola really makes me question if the whole "canon" FlaVR thing might not have gone to head for some of the people, and they feel some entitlement for being the OGs.

>>50417947

40 ccv for a highly anticipated debut (remember, she put this off for like 2 weeks), isn't a big deal, and if they cared so much, they should have been happy that she's stopped streaming right?

If that was all it was then this whole thing is even more stupid than it already was. Sena already removed the tag way ahead of time and if that still was an issue then obviously the Tag isn't the problem. It also makes that "official" statement even worse because it indirectly throws a lot of shade for nothing if all they wanted was to convey "Hey dipshit, just putting a tag on your twitter doesn't mean you are now best of friends with everyone and are owed anything." and made it out as some huge deal to them by making it a huge deal to everyone.
>>50419539
Rikka and Brolime also don't have the tag anymore and when people checked yesterday with the announcement Nyana also was listed among those not having it anymore. But i will fully admit i got no clue if Nyana removed it or not since i was asleep at the time and i also honestly never paid attention to the tags or so. I didn't even notice Sena removed it way after the fact.
If they hadn't made such a huge deal out of it and make it seem like there was some grand decision by some being made due to what seemed like reaction to the events we DO know of instead of behind the scenes stuff no one knows, ergo DMs then i doubt any of this ever had been an issue to begin with.

MAYBE if they don't want people to take this the wrong way, they should just address the miscommunication and just say what the issue was instead of this vague corpo larp.

>You can't have it both ways, either you keep asking and encouraging people to join, or you keep FlaVR as a small but unified group.
Yes. In my personal opinion, FlaVR should have never grown beyond the original 5 + 3 members created on stream. That first stream established the lore of FlaVR, so it was pretty consistent. Immediately after there was people roleplaying the characters, and within a month we more or less got the de facto official members with Sena, Brolime, Kinolime, Minna, because they actually streamed. That's all we needed. Then assuming that Sena, the Limes, Minna, etc. decided to retire after a week, or month or so, that would have been the end of FlaVR there and then, a flash in the pan but a nice sequence of events nonetheless.
With the new waves of community created FlaVR, that just invited confusion because obviously there would be no vetting or consistency, just a long string of "wouldn't it be cool if there was this flavor or that flavor?"
Sometimes simplicity is best. I would have been totally content if eventually everybody called it quits and Sena remained as the only surviving FlaVR member.

I feel like sticking to the original 5+3 would have been an interesting way for FlaVR to have gone. It didn't though, and I think that's because the appeal of flavr was the openness. Those early days of genning random flavrs helped solidify the general and brought in thread culture. The debut of sweet brought in fan favorites, as well as drama. Would /fvr/ or flavr still be around without anons genning random characters and offering them to femanons? Maybe, maybe not.

I'd find it ironic to see anybody shill that opinion anymore, since she basically scrubbed flavr from her channel. If anybody truly thinks Sena is the only good one, they should go shill her in /wvt/.

There are no possible worlds in which it actually closed up after 5+3. The entire point of Pippa's stream in the first place was to show off what can be done now. How are you going to dangle that in everyone's faces and not expect more proompting?

There's a lot of people in the thread today that clearly don't watch any of the FlaVR chuubas.

Personally I catch the thread when I remember, and I watch Sena, Minta, Mixie and now Raimi whenever I notice they're streaming, and possibly the others if the stars line up right. Right here is where a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. If I weren't an autistic backreader I might have just dropped the whole thing. Even worse if I'd decided to check Twitter today instead of basketweaving reps.
Sorry to prolong the drama, I just want to say, let's all please learn from this and try not to fuck up the same way again. I'm going back to rat strim now.

>>50426424
That is not however how it went, they didn't just stream once or twice but kept going. When things started to expand and FlaVR became more than just the Pippa joke chuubas, they also still kept going and seemed to initially embrace that. They had many moments where they could either quit and let it be done with that or properly distanced themselves of what FlaVR is now without coming off as pricks. Sena did, and i wish her luck with it.
But the other few now instead decided to make a huge deal of it, making it sound like way more people were involved than actually are and present their "departure" as if FlaVR now is a detriment and bad thing while making it seem as a knee jerk reaction to a thing they didn't agree with.

FlaVR right now, at least to me, is more than just some joke chuubas or AI created chuubas or food flavored chuubas. It's a community where both anons and talents together lift themselves up and actually have some fun with the concept of vtubing together. If from that, it can even go further and become a thing where people eventually have a chance to break out from and become their own entity in the vtubing world, even better. And the notion that just about anyone can just put [FlaVR] on their twitter in order to ruin all that is absolutely stupid to me. That does not automatically make them part of the community and it's not that crazy a task to simply make it clear that they are not part of it, even to those outside of /here/ and that stumbled across it through twitter or youtube.

This is where the big difference comes from in this to me between Sena and those now. Sena simply seemed to want to take what she achieved and learned in FlaVR to as high as she can carry it in a positive way. The others seem like ungrateful asses that don't want to be linked anymore to those they disagree with or are beneath them but still want to be linked just enough to get the attention they got so far.

Nyana did have [FlaVR] in her Youtube name before. This is how I know.
I actually missed the Pippa and Panko collab where Nyana was created. However, I watched subsequent Pippa streams, and I noticed the name of Nyana in the chat and comment section. I thought that the all-caps name plus number NYANA SEXTYN9 [FlaVR] looked ridiculous, and capipis were just fucking with me, inventing random names and adding the [FlaVR] tag (pushing the joke too far). Only later I went back to watch the collab and realized that actually Nyana is totally canon because she was created by Pippa and Panko. LOL, what a weird name, but knowing Pippa, yeah, not that out of the ordinary (Nynan is a gamer gurl after all).
So, yes, Nyana always had the [FlaVR] tag; you can even go back to watch Pippa streams of the time to see Nyana's name on screen with the tag. I suspect this is the reason she was sad, because she always felt comfortable repping for the [FlaVR] name, so the Kuro Twitter announcement caught her by surprise. And that's the crux of the issue, even if Nyana and Abigill are the "canon" Gen2 by Pippa, they are still removed from the true originals (Minna, Sena, Lime) created in the first stream.

I've always thought the "talents" themselves knew that flavr has always been a doujin circle who are also fans of pippa. I don't really agree to the "no vetting" camp because doujin circles first and foremost should vet people before being accepted.

I'm not making that argument at all; I'm just saying Sena was the one who really took her character "seriously" from the beginning, and developed her content the most. So if the original cast had remained fixed, I feel she would be the only one standing as an actual Vtuber after a year or so.

This is a fair point. It is very hard to stave of creative urges. People just want to create without thinking about organizational matters or structure. This was sort of inevitable. I just wish people had stuck to the original Pippa characters.
I watched the first stream live (November), and the subsequent one with the Minna allegations, and thought they were fantastic. It took me two months or so, already in 2023, to realize that the community was actually keeping FlaVR alive as an open project.
I personally think Pippa should be the only one creating new designs but I understand if that feels too restrictive to many.

[Anonymous No.]

>>50412237
Ok so if I understand this narrative basically new people kept joining, the thread kept "recruiting" new members, maybe randoms wanted to be a part of it and old members were pressured to interact with the newcomers or pestered by them, and people actually assumed the Kuro account was a serious manager account for the "company" and had issues with it because it wasn't promoting the new "members" equally.
This burden troubled Kuro and old members and their reaction started this whole situation.
That could kind of makes sense and I could see it being the case but I'm not fully convinced it's not just a rrat yet. It's just something that sounds plausible.

>>50428703
Kind of agree with some of this post. I also see FlaVR as something born based on a theme and that got its inspiration from what Pippa created and its initial audience from her thanks to Pippa's involvement. But it's more than just the meme Pippa created, and she had little to play in it existing besides prompting it and retweeting them a few times. The real FlaVR are the members and the fans, more than the brand.
It's a grey area, anyone could "join" but at the same time not everyone is guaranteed to be welcomed by every member. And this is a very complicated thing for vtuber fans who are used to a corpo format where everyone with the same brand by default will get along.
So there is a value in either creating a new brand or adding a sub brand to the current flavr.
There is a difference between an open source project with 0 ownership, authority or order and a doujin project. A doujin project does have leaders or people who make choices, even if it's a true democracy and every member has an equal vote there is some form of order. If they are just friends they can even agree to things without the need for formalities.
An open source sort of project like what FLaVR is has literally 0 vetting, structure, order.
I did not know Nicola was a problem, I missed that whole arc due to real life obligations but I'm piecing it together now and it seems she was a problem that contributed to the split in opinions going on.
FlaVR has a few options. One, ignore the issue entirely and carry on as they were. This is safer in the short term because it avoids any immediate risk, it's literally doing nothing, you can't fuck things up that way. But it does not solve the underlying issue. Perhaps if Pippa never makes another FlaVR stream there will never be new members, perhaps the thread will stop recruiting people, perhaps no one new will try to pick up a character. So this "issue" will never actually present any problems again.
But maybe it will. No way to know for sure.
The other two options are roughly similar. One is to rebrand potentially as something very similar, simply as a formaltiy so the new "brand" is not open source but instead a doujin project. This is the bigger change. The other option is to simply add a sub brand within the brand that separates those who were part of FlaVR before, who are already in good terms with each other, who everyone has accepted. And those who aren't part of that group. Pretty much anyone else.
This can be simple, just turn current FLaVR members into FlaVR-Doujin group. The name can be anything.
This option also presents some change, and change is a risk, things can go wrong and people can disagree with it and it can cause more division. But it could also go well and without issues. And it would future proof the group from this sort of issues.
Honestly I just expect nothing to happen because generally people tend to prefer the passive route as long as they can afford to.
The only thing I truly want is for everyone to still be happy. For them to have fun and still enjoy doing this. Life can have rough moments, sometimes taking a break is important, and sometimes things can look bad
But what matters is weathering those storms and coming, solving the issues, taking a break and remaining positive.
All options should be on the table just in case. I remember when Mixie showed up. People were split between "kick her out" "she's fine" "just change her color scheme so she's not the same as marie" and "make her change character entirely"
She tried all options and eventually changing her character was the best choice. Change isn't always bad sometimes adapting is good.

So all I can ask is to try to be positive. Even if things look bad and there are challenges and there are problems in the way try to stay positive, instead of thinking the worst case scenario consider the options available to deal with the issue, remember things rarely go as bad as they could and try to cheer each other up.
At least do it for the streamers, you don't want Nyana to cry again right?
Whatever choice everyone makes, it's up to them. With or without tag if they are still getting along there's no real problem, FlaVR hasn't gone anywhere.

The way I view things, FlaVR was a massive high effort fanproject for Pippa - taking the ideas she put out in a sort of exploratory AI art screwing around stream, and trying to make those ideas manifest in reality as faithfully as possible. I think the first wave understood that, and most of the new ones did too. However, I think there's a faction of people here that see this as just /asp/ 2.0, this time signal boosted by Pippa, when that's not really what it's about.

>The others seem like ungrateful asses that don't want to be linked anymore to those they disagree with or are beneath them but still want to be linked just enough to get the attention they got so far.
I don't understand where this feeling comes from. I believe you have written several posts like this in past threads because you always seem to inject vitriol with the words you choose such as "ungrateful asses", or "grifters" or "leechers".
I never saw any of the original members with this attitude. Sena took it seriously, clearly; Minna does it for fun, she's clearly not going pro any time soon; Brolime always rejected monetization, and rejected the notion that he was doing it to get Pippa's attention, etc. So I don't understand your attitude of "those bastards were just doing it for attention!"

>I've always thought the "talents" themselves knew that flavr has always been a doujin circle who are also fans of pippa.
Not true at all. That was true the first week, or month after the original stream. But after the new year it was clear that some people didn't even know Pippa, they just wanted to get into Vtubing.
>I don't really agree to the "no vetting" camp because doujin circles first and foremost should vet people before being accepted.
Impossible to implement. That requires a "core" group to handle the vetting, and it was clear from the beginning that nobody wanted that responsibility, so it is what it is.

we've had this discussion in the past, but the sentiment has been vetting is typically up to the "original" talents to do. Marie was actually this thread middleman with the other talents to warn them about potential bad actors like spooki, linkd, and then coco (nothing against him but his PL posting is why jubi was excluded from the rest of the talents).

And now the original capipis are upset that the fanproject hardly resembles a fanproject anymore because of all the people who came here and made it about themselves instead of in service of Pippa. Now they're leaving, and you're not only wondering why, you're calling them grifters, screaming your head off about them pulling the ladder up behind them. You took a big fat shit all over the work they made for Pippa, they're right to be upset.

I want to commend most of you for the thoughtfulness and kindness you have shown toward these streamers and to each other. Thank you. While you have all experienced what seems like some very stressful times, I think it is a testament to you all that most everyone in this project has been consistently positive and friendly.

FlaVR has demonstrated the power that we have to turn ideas into a sort of shared reality. It is a valuable lesson. I'm not sure how occult that gets, but if the Bible speaks about it then it can't be dangerous knowledge to attend to, can it? The power of the tongue to bring life or death.

I think some of you intuitively grasp the concept, and sometimes take it too far in trying to speak things into existence, but those are few still.

I think this entire project has a lot of lessons to be extracted from it. And I think the fact that some of the talents are having fun streaming, even if they are not at the numbers they might prefer, is a good thing.

Please support your oshis. Please use your words wisely. and please consider taking some time away from the computer for your health. There are much more serious and important things in life than this, even if it can be a very therapeutic hobby for some people who are in rough patches. And consider using what we have learned about the creation and development of this meme into something more, and apply that knowledge to even more creative and productive endeavors.

No, you are mixing me up with someone else, i never once considered anyone here a grifter or leech or some such. Neither the OGs as leeches or such from Pippa nor anyone else since then as leeches of the OGs or the FlaVR brand, not even those that just streamed once and then went missing or those that never gotten out of the twitterphase.

I always considered everyone, not just the Talents but also those supporting them with stream assets and the like or just anons genning new potential models with AI to simply having been people having some fun and playing around with the vtubing concept. And if you are like Sena and want to take a more "serious" approach to it and see how big you can go with it, all the more power to you.

This is why this whole "We want to distance ourselves from FlaVR because of potential bad actors." rubs me the wrong way. This is a fun project for the enjoyment of itself, not some moneymaking scheme or with the main purpose of "serious kickstarter" for your indie vtuber career. The notion that someone can have fun the wrong way or just because you disagree with their approach, they are wrong. is stupid. And people with actual ill intend can and will approach you regardless of FlaVR.

In that same sense however, it should be clear that just because you join as a new talent, doesn't give you right to anything. No one in an open project owes you anything. No one has to collab with you or give you stuff for free just because. If you want to join a community then you also are the one that has to make the effort to become a part of it, and even then, if someone just doesn't get along with you, so be it. You can coexist in an open and public project without the need to interact and can just ignore each other.

This rrat came from the FlaVR twitter and Brolime. The twitter complained about people bothering the original members. Then they took down the tweet and quit the next day. Brolime has been mentioning not wanting to interact with new members for the last two months. Then after they quit Brolime did a joke stream and has been posting on his twitter an old meme video that people shouldn't be cringe. It wasn't a problem to gatekeep or remove the FlaVR tag or whatever. They decided to make the drama on their own by complaining about Niicola and quitting all at once the next day. They decided to not explain after they did that. They decided not to gatekeep the original characters. They decided not to make rules about who they wanted to interact with and how.

Not the guy calling the original talents grifters, but holy shit, for someone who sucks pippas toes so much you sure don't give a shit about what she thinks about this. She's said on stream before that she likes that people have grown their own community around it, and if you fuckers had your way "the fanproject" would have killed this whole thing a week in.

I agree with the gist of this post
"early on people tried to match what pippa created to make it real" and Pippa's corpo, its concept and characters was very good and now it's just "aspiring vtubers being given a chance to belong to an existing group"
in big part we can blame the thread itself I guess for prompting and wanting more people to join but Pippa said people could do what they wanted with the project and part of running a company is recruiting new people, the original Hololive debut cycle was 6 months
and even from the start not all members were exactly as Pippa envisioned either
we had Pippa's project come to life for like what, 4, 6 months? That's a very long time for a performance art project to function
it's not that odd for things to take a life of their own later on
we even had mixie who was not created by Pippa but she still supported her so it's not like Pippa herself had an issue witht his, it might just be come capipis and if they are disappointed the project stopped being faithful to Pippa's original vision not much can be done about it
sena leaned hard into the bear theme, nyana rebranded from whore to a wholesome memer very early on, lolime is a guy and wants to rebrand too
I think at least the new members the thread has sort of embraced were still consistent with the style of the original pippa creations, cool designs, some sort of flavor theme, they were new but they didn't betray the original concept

[Anonymous No.]

>>50432157
Exactly, and to expand on this, Brolime has always been upfront about his intentions. He's mentioned it several times. It's not to get the attention of Sleepy or Pippa, though he appreciates it, but rather to get the attention of others, and point them towards Pippa and Sleepy and all the other chuubas he's a big fan of. He's always said, if some random fan of Pippa could have a body of work that extensive, then that must mean that Pippa herself must be pretty inspiring. All he wants is for the things he does to reflect well on Pippa.

Kinda yeah, it comes from projection. Someone who thinks the project is /asp/ 2.0 is going to evaluate the actions of others in that same framework, in which case of course it will look bad to leave as soon as you see a bit of success, and doubly so if your group was getting some kind of "sponsorship".
BUT I think this conflict doesn't really need to exist. Pippa made it pretty clear that >we can do what we want with the character concepts. Of course we want to pay that back by making something special, but there are lots of ways to interpret that. Including, ya know, building something bigger that's community-focused but still knows where its roots are.

That kind of view is completely valid and fair and if they had simply gone and stated "Hey, this project drifted away from how we envisioned it at first with all that came after us and thus we want to break off." that would be absolutely fine.

I tend to agree, but it does present some issues with filtering. How do you keep a Pippa anti out, for instance? How do you deal with someone who doesn't give a shit about roots and paying respects to Pippa, and is only coming here for what they can gain for themselves? How do you keep the project pointed in the direction of original intent when so mant newfags are involved, especially if they don't do their reps?

By the way, that reminds me, if we do end up genning more ideas for more generations, I think it'd be a great idea to look back at the original source material of those streams, and look for little things she might have said in passing, and further flesh out those ideas. There's a surprising amount of overlooked ideas she threw out still left on the table. I think that would be one way to continue paying homage going forward.

Not a bad idea but I wouldn't obsess over it either.
Pippa isn't some master artist who created a bunch of rough sketches that could all be masterpieces. She's just a regular weeb like any of us who is also very familiar with vtubers and knows what can work well for them.
It's not like anime or vtubers have that much depth, there are many general archetypes or traits that can be used to create a character and the fact that it's all in the AI tag system should make it clear it's all already well catalogued shit.
The more character centric ideas she might have had like Sena helping out and "fixing" her fans might be very good and fun but they are not things that can be replicated anyway even the first gens that made the meme real were not 100% in character. Only character art direction can be truly emulated and implemented.
But we could try to pay homage to it, sure why not. It wouldn't hurt and it would be a good starting point to think of good ideas to work with and it might gain some support from capipis, but I don't really know how much of a benefit that is anyway. It's not like they will come just because they heard a new design is loosely inspired by some of Pippa's comments.

This won't happen for the simple fact that nobody wants to be the boss of anybody else. In order to do this transition, at least a "core" group of FlaVRs need to come together and make decisions, and it's clear nobody wants to make decisions for anybody else. In human societies there's always leaders and followers, so I presume some people would be fine being led, but others wouldn't and they would prefer to be completely free to do whatever they want.

He never baited Pippa, somebody else suggested the raid, and she did it. Once that happened, Brolime and Temp pulled a switcheroo, and did the stream tier list. It was masterfully executed because they prepared it before, in case Pippa ever raided them but they never pushed her. In any case, the tier list stream was clearly not for Pippa, but for Pippa fans who obviously were watching Pippa before the raid; a stream by fans for fans. See also >>50434134

If you are going to argue attention seeking, maybe you could mention Brolime at the highway billboard, dancing, prancing around, and trying to climb it. Pippa even showed up in chat that time. But Brolime always stated that it was just a bit, for fun, because he's a fan, not because he wanted to talk to her or get into her DMs.
Simply put, Brolime had plenty of opportunities to get Pippa's attention since he debuted the character, but he stuck to his word and never pestered her publicly, nor tried to go beyond "I'm just a fan".

To add to this, remember when Marie decided she didn't want to interact with some members, there were two types of post about the situation.

2. "Understandable, but I hope they get a long some day" Even when people make it clear they don't to have anything to do with someone as long as they are part of the same group fans will have an expectation for them to get along, even if the fans have the best intentions, it can be annoying.

Tenma's more of a sperg than a bitch IMHO, and doubling down usually works for her so I can't say it's not expected of her to do so.
Though I will say that part of it definetly is how Tenma and some other PC girls but they're irrelevant to this conversation mostly do in fact really dislike Pippa's fanbase a lot of the time, especially with how much they come off as from le ebin hacker website 4channel dot org.
