I appreciate the response.
Firstly, I'd like to clear one thing up: I'm not blaming anyone. It's natural social interaction that the thing most people relate to will act as the lynchpin of discussion. In this thread, that 'thing' is Hololive, and not 'V-Tubers', so when things of interest aren't happening, it's normal for the idle discussion to be about Hololive.
As a naturally occurring symptom of this, it means that the things I personally like don't get talked about until they reach that threshold of becoming a point of interest. This is all fine and not something that I necessarily want to change, as the only remedy to this is forcing people to talk about Hololive less and Nijisanji more, and I don't like that.
In regards to my 'not my responsibility' comment, I was not saying that it isn't my responsibility to fact-check Nijisanji info, but rather that it shouldn't be my responsibility to try and unravel /vt/ rrats that get presented here as they were posted there - which I maintain is where a majority of our info comes from.
It's perfectly fine with me if I was tagged in a post that said 'Hey Scuttle, I saw this posted and wanted you to check on it', but things normally get presented here with the membrane of /vt/ schizo agenda still intact. This happens with Holo stuff too, but Holo has the luxury of most people willing to figure it out before a judgement is made, whereas others do not.
Tone is very important in changing impressions and swaying the direction of a conversation, so if people want me to act as the Niji Journalist, I only ask for people to reserve judgement on a situation until I've come back with my findings/opinions. It would certainly go some way to curb feeling like I'm fighting an uphill battle to not only correct people, but also race to get my corrections out before the unchecked doomposting/rampant speculation begins.
