Talk:Mano Aloe/@comment-35559522-20200910033003

I'm getting seriously tired of ignorant people slandering HoloLive, every single time some incident occurs. All HoloLive did was suspend her for 2 weeks because she did something that was in breach of her contract, the retirement was entirely her decision, do to the pressure and doxxing from the anti-VTuber groups, which HoloLive has taken legal action against, they've also filed a legal request protecting their talents from future abuse. (Remember, every time someone blasts HoloLive, or encourages another person to stop watching their videos, it marks a victory for those anti-VTuber groups.)   If anyone thinks a 2 week suspension is extreme, even if it's in her first week of starting out, consider why they wouldn't want her streaming during that time, for one thing she was being doxxed, so that's a very good reason to not upload anything, as it puts both her as well as the other 5th gen members at a serious risk, second HoloLive would be carrying out their investigation and seeking legal advise on the matter during that time, and releasing an official statement beforehand would have caused more problems, so calling it a suspension was probably more of an error than a fact. As for Mel's case, what exactly do you expect them to do? One employee accused another employee of a serious crime, which she herself stated seemed out of character for that individual, so needless to say the company would ask it's employees to remain neutral while it was investigated, and Mel never stated, nor did she imply, that the people who were not there for her during that time, were affiliated with HoloLive. We can't blame HoloLive for releasing Hitomi Chris from her contract either, as she proved herself to be a risk to the company, and though it may have seemed unfair to us, it was entirely within reason. Now consider how some other companies have handled domestic problems: .Live flat out fired Yozakura Tama and Nekonoki Mochi, when they could have probably just suspended them for a few weeks; Brave Group completely replaced the Game Club Project's VA's; Azuma Lim's situation was by far the worst case of a company abusing one of their talents, as they locked her out of all her accounts, she couldn't get ahold of them and they didn't pay her for over 6 months, but fortunately she's resumed as an independent VTuber and is now taking legal action. I've watched a large number of VTubers come and go over the years, and have seen some controversies, but from what I've seen and heard, HoloLive is definitely one of the better companies to work for in the VTubing industry, the other being Nijisanji. Talents work incredibly hard just to get into one of those two companies, and I know of at least one that transferred from the later to HoloLive. Now this is not to say that HoloLive is perfect, but there is a vast difference between handling a situation poorly and abusing staff; encouraging people to not support the company and to stop watching their videos, is just as abusive to the VA's as the anti-VTubers who doxx, and the dark companies who put money before their talent's well being. All in all, what happened to Mano Aloe was a terrible tragedy that should never happen to anyone, and it will likely happen again in the future, but HoloLive was not at fault, and I hope that with their taking legal action against the anti-VTuber groups, maybe someday Mano Aloe just might decide to return.
