The original post this VOD is based off of:
When is it okay to publicly talk about the past life of a VTuber?

Green light 🟢1:
If a VTuber is open about their own past life. If the VTuber shows their own IRL face in their stream or talks about their own past life, that’s a green light to go ahead and talk about that connection!


Green light 🟢2:
If a VTuber has graduated from an agency and is trying to get their audience to notice their new indie VTuber persona. This doesn’t apply to if the VTuber doesn’t reincarnate as an indie. Respect a creator's privacy if its clear that they are done with the spotlight!

The green lights listed above are the only two instances where it is okay to publicly make a connection between a Vtuber and their past life. Now let’s go over some instances where it’s really not ok to expose a VTubers past life.


Red light 🔴1:
When their past life is leaked before debut, don’t talk about their PL or spread the leak! Leaks can make the new VTuber nervous and uncomfortable, and can even cause trouble for them if their PL has made mistakes in the past or doesn't fit the agency ideals!

Red light 🔴2:
Similar to spreading leaks, public speculation is a no go! If a new debuted VTuber is speculated to be VTuber X but it turns out they aren't, the new VTuber is already starting with a disappointed audience. That's totally unfair to the new VTuber!

Red light 🔴3:
When a vtuber is live, NEVER bring up their past life if the streamer didn't bring it up first! Even if a vtuber is open with their PL, if it isn’t relevant to the current stream, don’t bring it up! This can break the immersion they are trying to create!

Red light 🔴4:
Don't compare past lives and current personas. Never tell a Vtuber “I liked it when you were [PL] more!” Chances are, the VTuber is most happy with their current persona, and it can be hurtful to hear that.

In general, we should all be more cautious with talking about a VTuber’s past life. The tride and true “would you want this to happen to you?” Type question is important here! And remember: doxxing is a crime!

At the end of the day, VTubers are real people with life’s and families they want to protect. Doxxing information on them can end their activities prematurely. If you are dying to talk about a VTuber's past life, a private chat among friends is where you do it. Spreading this information publicly could possibly end your new oshi's career. Don’t be that guy/gal who ruins it for the VTuber and their
