🐟 Fishtank Sam Hyde's Fishtank.live General - Jet Neptune's Little House of Horrors

[Lowercase I internet]

Sure, you might make some money and even become a semi-semi-successful streamer. But is it worth it really? There’s no long term benefit imo. You’re effectively getting doxed and having your personal laundry aired to thousands for the chance at z-list celebrity status for a couple years. And that’s if you’re lucky. Most fishtank “stars” are always tied to the show. The moment the cameras stop rolling they become largely irrelevant.

First of all, if you’re a male contestant you will not find online success. Paypigs are unfortunately not gay. Luke probably got the best deal as he’s now working in sketches with Sam and crew, but he’s largely an exception due to his previous big brother appearance and universally beloved presence.

The most well received male Fish are typically used because of their mental disabilities and laughed at. Outside of the show literally nobody cares about them. They are tied to it. That’s not some moral claim about how evil the wiggers are either, that’s just the nature of the show. If you’re a dude tough luck. Maybe you’ll get to hold a camera for Sam and get gas station food for the wiggers if you’re lucky.

While female Fish have an easier time gathering a following it’s probably not going to be much. Congrats, you have a small (emphasis on small) army of paypigs who are deranged enough to think they have a chance at fucking you. Watch as they throw a couple hundred dollars at you per stream. Just be careful, if they find out you’re in a relationship they will quite literally try and ruin your life due to such a betrayal. Enjoy relying on them for sparse income and catering to literal degenerates for years to come.

Even in Letty’s case where she branched out and got a following, her success comes at the cost of having her porn leaked and having bouts of depression and self harm. At least you get to do drugs and fuck some kick streamers though.

That’s not even mentioning the long term consequences. It’s only been two years since season one. I wonder what it’s going to be like after the fame wears off and they try and find jobs. Good luck after your boss finds that video of you getting humped by the naked fat man for $100 or participating in the scream the n-word challenge.

No sane person should ever go on fishtank. Makes the contestants more fun that way.

There are definitely both pros and cons to being on fishtank.

Letty's psycho ex spread her revenge porn to thousands of people, she got heavy into drugs after S1 (nearly resulting in an OD according to her), and almost fucked chicken Andy. But she generally seems to be in a better place (for now) and is making decent money from her streaming career. She probably won't have to get a real job for a while.

Burt's scam business took a hit, and he's worse off financially. But he finally got a taste of the fame he always wanted.

Jimmy is a laughing stock, but he has an army of mid bpd fangirls, which is probably better than what he could have hoped for prior. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Mr. "37 body count" was a virgin before fishtank.

Taylor lost her job and fucked lubecooch who allegedly cheated on her with a sheboon. But now she's amassed a pretty sizable following outside of fishtank, and gets paid to do what she loves (gambling) with actual sponsorships and everything.

Binx is mostly hated by the fanbase, but has a few paypigs spending thousands on her, and she averages about 50 viewers now instead of 12.

Tayleigh and Josie have both made a lot of money, but they have to deal with insane stalkers.

People who seem to have overwhelmingly benefited from fishtank in some way are Fatty, Vance, Brian, Greg, and Luke
People who's lives got significantly worse after fishtank are Summer, Cole, CK, Brandon, and I guess Alex but his life was already pretty fucked. Shinji is back to slinging bussy in the streets of Japan, but that probably would have happened regardless.
The majority of people probably haven't had their lives impacted in any significant way, and just faded back into obscurity (Mauro, Simmons, Ian etc.)

Good point Fishtank isnt that old.

What happens a few years from now when we are on season 9 and there are 100 ex-fish out there begging for simps or orbiting for a chance to get back on the show. What happens if Sam cancels the project in a year or two like most of his half-assed ideas and moves on to something else? You lose your top whale to next seasons e-girl? Guess your back to bartending at 35.

IMO, Fishtank has a unusually high number of contestants trying to make their careers off their appearance in what is in the end still a very niche show with a limited ecosystem.

Aside from Famous House, which was a big ruse anyway, I don't feel like Fishtank was ever really sold as a career launching opportunity. At least that wasn't why the contestants chose to come on the show.
Early on in season 1 I remember the fish being quizzed about their aspirations after the show, and I think Josie said she wanted to work at an animal shelter or something, and Letty wanted to go back to school. It was only in the last few days that the two of them had the idea planted in their heads that they should try to capitalise on their newfound social media fame in a serious way.

Sam absolutely shills Fishtank as a career launching opportunity, maybe not at first in S1 but definitely since the end of S1, he has a whole spiel about the new media landscape and the real way to make it is by being a streamer. He was big on this during S3 after the ruse ended.

he's not necessarily wrong it's just that the people on fishtank absolutely fucking suck

S1 they helped Josie and Letty after the season was over try set up their streaming career and gave them a boost that way. of course there is only so much they can do to help.
S2 cast they basically just wiped their hands clean of the cast as fast as possible and S3 well yea some day Burt died in that desert

Tay went on Fishtank with the goal of promoting her crocheting business and has done so successfully, potentially having earned over 10k from it in addition to over 30k from streaming and fishtank.

If you take Tay as an example, the average salary in Stephenville, Texas, per Ziprecruiter, is just under $40k p/a. Tay has made approximately that in the ~18 months that have followed FT from streaming and crocheting (assuming that nobody charged her back due to non-fulfilment of orders). Financially speaking, Tay would've been better off running the crocheting business and streaming as a side hustle, and, of course, she tanked her online fanbase by acting like a retard, so has largely self-sabotaged her streaming career.

If this is deemed as success, I'd hate to know what failure looks like.

the real success of fishtank is getting weirdo stalkers.
I wish I had stalkers who I could child.

Milkmoder is working on bringing some notoriety to the Fishtank brand... he started going to protests around Dallas under his Channel 6 brand (3 in 2 weeks).

His first one was for Austin Metcalf (pro white) with Jake Lang (j6 dude) where other internet personalities showed up like ac7ionman or the guy who did the gooneral. He wasn't willing to play many sfx/tts "out of respect" but since he had his insane laptop setup he got to tell plenty of people he is streaming on Fishtank (including a possible fed...). Surprisingly quite a few heard of it or knew that it was a "Sam Hyde" thing.

The second one was for "Global Day of Action for Gaza" where he decided to "jewpill" them and felt quite secure shouting some anti-jew stuff among them and playing the (uncensored) SFX/tts (since there is no moderation for the streamers you can send encoded messages which bypass the AI filters so it says nigger & stuff) (which mods also utilize).
He didn't go entirely unnoticed, with a reporter Sam Judy (who ended up privating his profile after this) & some antifa guy getting in his face (threatening to give him a wedgie). They even looked him up on the site to find out his nickname.

Spoiler: clips

(this lady complained twice)

(wedgie "threat" was later on)

His most recent one was for Mayday where he gathered plenty of negative attention and ended up getting counter protested.

He reposted some of the photos & videos where he appeared. The most prominent being a short Tiktok:

https://www.tiktok.com/@laurapikeseeley/video/7499631909358570782

It sits at over 700k views and over 500 comments. People noticed the Fishtank sticker on his phone so the association is certainly already made:

Not sure if this is what Jet is looking for, but if this keeps happening Milkmoder isn't gonna make it around Dallas ...

 

[Polyboros2]

TJ was the most astroturfed and heavily protected Fishtank contestant ever. You can see it in the edits with how they tried to have a storyline of him becoming a man which really didn't happen. He wouldn't do shit unless told to by someone or TTS and the lubecooch shit was almost completely censored for the entire show. If they let it loose he would've been ripped apart by the others and he was clearly terrified of it since the one horse cock TTS not even mentioning lubecooch sent him running to the basement.

You are right, but I think Binx is a really really close number 2 that is kind of obfuscated by having a couple of genuine paypiggy simps.

The Fish have been promised careers and fame since season 1 day 1, the first night Sam showed his face on Fishtank he told the fish they were going to be getting careers off Fishtank and to "get ready for fame" He says similar stuff in s2.

its funny how these tiktok brainlets immediately seethe about Sam when some guy is doing edgy shit like this while repping his brand, yet Sam himself has made fun of "haha hitler nazi 1488" humor. these people dont even watch his stuff and just assume Sam's humor is all saying slurs and acting like a /pol/ stereotype. but whatever, i guess its equally as retarded for me to care about what they say/think.

welcome to Thailand

You know, maybe staying in a muslim area of Bangkok wasn't such a bad idea after all. I don't even want to begin to fathom what was going on in that city the few days I was there.

Most Fishtank contestants are not "average" by any means and very few are capable of earning an "average" salary, let alone be employable for much of anything. I couldn't trust Jon to run a gas station cash register.

Them being able to make money they otherwise would not be able to off of the "fame" they get from Fishtank is a good deal for them. Almost all of them are happy to have done it, outside of the few Fish who think they're somehow better than the show, and they're most certainly not. I think Burt had the highest/most stable income prior to being on the show and he's only ever been in it for the fame anyway.

Mate this would make an awesome Fishtank spin-off. Have Alex, John, Jimmy and Meagan (Because she's cute) run a simple business, live streamed 24/7. Make them handle everything from stock, to shifts to interacting with customers and then let tts call everybody a nigger

 

[Blackstar]

Meagan (Because she's was cute)

Fixed that for you

Jet has also used the opportunity the show offers and how successful previous contestants have been when desperately trying to stop people from leaving.
