It's extremely fucking long so I'll give you the tldr:
1. Mods chatting too frequently and essentially spamming. Not doing their jobs.
2. Mods are also breaking the rules that the streamer set, yet is a fucking animal when it comes to punishing everyone else in the chat.
3. Mods are thirsty bois/girls who are extremely parasocial with the guy.
4. Basically trying to control/take care of Uki. Even at one point telling people to stop sending superchats so Uki can sleep during a zatsudan/superchat reading stream.
The author of the letter offered potential solutions including;
1. Mods should just shut the fuck up.
2. Stop power-tripping and be humble
3. Mods should open a Q/A like what Fulgur's mods did.
They also asked Uki to stop playing favourites with his mods, since he clearly favours them by prioritizing their messages, reading out their
names, etc etc. Apparently, there are also mods that are minors, which I can actually fucking confirm.
Awareness has been spread that this is not just exclusive to Uki, but literally in NijiEN's male talents.
Some mods have acknowledged the thread and apologized. And by some, I mean one--IchigoClips
This might develop into something big so I'll you guys posted.
