COVER is a nepotism company
>>115066433Which part of the bottom is nepo?
You, me and your discord tranny freaks have literally never heard of these two before today
Literally WHO and why should I care?
>>115066503She was one of Raden's cultural travel friends.
Eh?, one of the new hires is kakapo?, I know her because she did a bunch of collabs with Raden, no idea about the other one.
>>115066536Okay then. I'm fine with it either way.
Kakapo deserves to be in Holo. Dunno who the first one is but she's also worthy.
>>115066550oroca , Matsuri's friend
>>115066583Matsuri friend but seems ok
>>115066557Who cares what you're fine with
Why do people not understand the difference between nepotism and cronyism?
>>115066804Me
>>115066812Bro, half this board barely understands basic English grammar
>>115066433>nepoholos are mutuals or friends with like 80% the industries at this point
>>115066629Will check her out, thanks.
>>115066433Nepotism is when you give favoritism to family members.However, the PhD girl has her own merits.
>>115066433Good. Fewer random indie shitters to fuck things up.
Nepotism was most of the early hololive gens and they worked well.
>>115066812I don't watch her a lot
How much is Chloe/Ruka seething right now?
>>115066812Nepotism hire is family. Cronyism is outside of family, such as friends.
>>115067667what ? is that true she quit because she so mad her little sister not accepted into hololive ?
>>115067576then again a lot of them were diamonds in the roughthese are pretty successful so they're kinda playing it safe at the same timei guess kekpark is supposed to take care of the rest
>>115066804Who cares what you are not fine with?
>>115067667Not much I guess. I don't think she was that fulfilled in holox and the person whom she really has an affinity for is shion and is the only one she still talks to post-graduation.
>>115066433>nepotism BAD in EVERY CASE! Wouldn't have gotten Mio, Okayu, Korone. Mainstays of JP Holo popularity. Ignoring the loose and incorrect usage of "nepotism" today, which actually means giving jobs etc., specifically to family members, if a "nepohire" is actually good then what's the problem?Cover has to make sure the girls pass the vibe check. You can have accolades oozing out the pussy but if you're a psychobitch that can't play well with others then you should not make the cut. Having a friend vouch that you're vibe checkable is an advantage. So what?Do not confuse Nepotism with Cronyism, where the nepohire is actually subpar and didn't actually make the cut and there's connotations of incompetence etc.Nepotism is just the term for a mechanism, with neutrality on actual competence; they got in through connections but there no explicit negative implications as to their actual competency or suitability.A nepohire that didn't make the cut but only got in because of said insider connections and not on any innate merit got in through cronyism, and that term IS implicitly laced with notions of mismatched merit. Dictionary: nepotism - familycronyism - friends/associatesNepo purely descriptive of a mechanism of hiring family (no clear judgment on actual merit, just how they got in).Crony - they're not suitable nor capable and only got in because they're mates with someone inside.Tl;drYou should be using the term cronyhire, not nepohire.
>>115071128>but if you're a psychobitch that can't play well with others then you should not make the cutdidn't stop Rushia from getting in tho?
>>115071128cope: the post
it's not fair
>>115071543Rushia's one of the best utaites they've ever had and the top SC earner still even 4 1/2 years later. Messy career but you should still recognize her ability.
>>115071872Forget it, Jake.It's hololive
>>115071872what's not fair is that only one of them is showing midriff
>>115066433damntop model is sexy as fuckI assume the bottom is Sophia
>>115066812Because it's a semantic difference that doesn't actually matter in practice- you're hiring your buddy or your family member based on connections whether they're actually good at the job or not.
>>115066433So basicly you said COVER is a company.Cus every company is nepotism company.
>>115066433yes? their nepohires have been golden except when it was EN hore
>>115071929bottom is sexier imo
>>115066433>>115071872This is just proof that's it's not about what you know but who you know.
>>115067640Subtle kek
>>115072009it's okay
>>115071543besides >>115071896 , it was early days. She obviously was well hidden enough to get that ayylmao faggot to marry her etc., and wasn't dumb enough to pull a hitomi chris and get booted within a weekwhy do you think holos now go through like half a year+ of "vetting" behind the scenes after they've already signed a contract and have graduated from their PL? that shit didn't happen back when rushia joined 3rd gen - wham bam you start next week shit back thennow they know it's truly necessary
>>115066536>Raden nepo hireBased?
>>115074161If holo didn't have that long vetting/filter period they might've ended up with that utter moron, grimmi, and all the baggage and endless drama she carts around with her because of her self-induced retardation.Cover should thank that vhoejoekike cco for gaslighting her out of it.
>>115066433>named Kakapo>has a kiwi instead of a kakapo
>>115066536raden is one of their best recent hires so i'm failing to see why that's a bad thing. she's an experienced vtuber and has her own niche.
>>115066433You're telling me these vtubers are close blood relatives of hololive executives?
>>115074227cover's wranglers are pretty good and could have kept grimmi in check. Thenagain she would've been EN so probably would've been neglected. Either way she'd have been able to rely on people not named Seth and likely would've ended up avoiding those situations.
Ina got a nepotism hire and nobody batted an eyelid. Ended up being a failure as well, must have been embarrassing for her.
>>115074312>Either way she'd have been able to rely on people not named Seth and likely would've ended up avoiding those situations.She would've given that hjew a doorway direct into holo.I'm just waiting for grimmi to wholeheartedly endorse geega/seth's latest scam scheme. You know it's coming. Good fucking riddance.
>>115066433It's literally, genuinely, lowkeynely, absurdly okay when Hololive does it.
>>115066433>holo members are actually friend with each othergood, good people with their good friend are good anon. whats the problem?, its like "we hired top graduate with top skill, then we hire the same with previous hire, they come from same place, same quality" which is a good thing, which is why top company have top quality.
>>115066812>>115071128the terms are used so interchangeably that it doesn't matter anymore
>>115066536literally the greenest green flag
>>115066517Quite literally a skill issue on your side, SEAmonkey.
>>115074325Nobody bats an eye at anything Ina does, good or bad
>>115074661Based followerWhat kinds of stuff did they do back then?
>>115067640funny
>>115074697Oroca was your average 2view nobody with the advantage of being a sexpest lesbian with NotMatsuriAs for Kakapo she was very close to Raden since the very beginning(not acting like a leech) + she did some homocollabs in universities because her PhD is actually legit.https://www.youtube.com/live/1mDTzlxIym0https://youtu.be/E5Fkw-6kfDYhttps://x.com/kakapo_research/status/2034624802280075324https://x.com/kakapo_research/status/1963802640074109279Both are great additions with no redflags whatsoever, but the first one might pull up a MatsuriOnLuna kind of shenanigan.
nepo is fine so long as more than 1 girl isnt in the same nepo group. ethyria was bad cuz it was 2 people nepoed in which fragmented the group. look at myth, gura and ame kinda knew each other before and now they both graduated. debuting is supposed to tie a group together, but nepo ensures that connection dosent form.
>>115075184Since when was matsuri not a red flag lol, she is going to be the runt too
>>115075184God I wish Matsuri would sexpest me.
>>115066804Seem like you care
>>115075184imagine getting a PhD and wasting it completely by becoming a fucking vtuber. jesus christ
>>115077748>he thinks you can do anything useful with a PhDlmfao little buddy still thinks it's 2003
>>115077780true, society is completely autonomous at this point and nobody does anything. fucking retard
>>115066536Is this the first case of a holomem collabing with another holomem's PL before they join the company? That's gonna be a pretty awkward "first collab".
>>115066433All big corporations have a level of nepotism to them. That’s just to be expected in all honesty. Haven’t you ever heard the phrase, “it's not what you know, it's who you know”.
>>115079425Nope.
>>115066433>hire newbies>they do great>hire previous lives>they failI'm noticing.
qrd?
>>115066433I wish Cover would nepo hire some EN members so we could have some regular EN streams again.
>>115082931holo EN is dead
>>115066433And that's a good thing
>>115079954holy semen demon
>>115079954Luna is a big upgrade
>>115066433I don't get it
>>115079425Not even close but I would say it's the first time the two are really close. Most past instances have been them being part of some random big collab in the past.
>>115071896>one of the best utaitesHuh? She was pretty much like Pekora, fairly known NND streamer not utaite
It's not really a nepohire when you still need to pass the audition, it's the same even way back then with gamers, do you actually believe someone like Raden got enough influence in the company to actually nepohire her friend?
>>115092740>do you actually believe someone like Raden got enough influence in the company to actually nepohire her friend?Considering how much money she's currently raking in for cover? Unironically yes.
>>115092740Investors are obsessed with bringing in more normies and Raden is an absolute normie magnet so yeah
