Many moons ago I agreed to collab with someone I hadn't really talked to much before because they were friends with my friends.
During said collab, dude got piss-ass drunk and started screaming about his dick every chance he got. The best part that came out of the collab was the facial expressions my model made, even back then. You could tell how uncomfortable I was purely through my tracking LMAO
Anyway, that's the story of how I learned to not just collab with everyone who asks and actually vibe check first.
Do you guys have any bad collab experiences?
My worst one was a couple years ago with a VTuber. We were supposed to play Valorant together, but something came up on their end. They canceled less than an hour before we were scheduled to go live. I get that emergencies happen, so I reached out to reschedule… and got completely ghosted. A short while later, they even unfollowed me.
We had similar-sized audiences, so it wasn’t like I was a nobody to them. I was just left hanging with nothing. I hope they were okay, but it definitely left a sour taste in my mouth.
