You either have not understood the reason behind this being a shadier business practice or are unwilling to understand it.

Regardless the reason this is much shadier than seen in standard practices is because this is an attempt at gaining a monopoly over who can and cannot be allowed to sign on with the studios that have agreed to this specific union since one among their demands is literally that studios and companies that sign on with voice actors who are members of this union are disallowed from signing on with other voice actors who are not associated with this very same union at all.

This means quite literally in practice that once they have a voice actor coming from this one union, they are disallowed from hiring any other voice actors that aren't a member of their union and cannot go with people that have been referred by others in the studio or have been sending in auditions from agencies that don't have an association with them.

You mentioned sarcastically that it must be a horror for people that are working to have some power in their field instead of the corporations that usually are the ones lording over them.

But what you fail to understand is this union with these demands are effectively blacklisting countless other voice actors from working with studios who have already been contracted by the union and barring them from getting work and forcing them to either become a member or continue on getting barred entry into their own field of work by attempting to remain independent or associated with an agency.

That literally takes away even more power from the people inside the voice industry and from the corporations both and puts it into the hands of this specific union that wants to have a complete monopoly over contracts and puts things in a state even worse than before.

There is also the fact that being associated with this union should the strike end with their demands being met will result in their voice actors having their credit stripped from them during the production of any given media item they're involved with.

So instead of it being written down as "Character X - Actor Y" it would be written as "Character X - Union Y."

This effectively wipes away the potential mark and career history they could easily make for themselves due to their credit being stripped away and replaced with the name of this specific union.

Setting that aside did you not even read the part in which the voice actors who are involved with this movement and have been giving out these demands are responsible for engaging in mass harassment against independent voice actors who have been offering themselves for roles these striking actors have leaving unfilled?

I don't see what moral standing they have over others and how they have convinced you they are at all an acceptable group in the face of these practices.

Unless I'm misremembering, I think the union is SAGAFTRA or something similar to that.

♥♥♥♥, I'm stupid, sorry. I misunderstood the first post, now that you put it this way I very much realize that my previous stance was wrong.

See, now... this is how the overwhelming majority of steam discussions and arguments should go. Too many people are too hung up on their pride to admit when they're made a mistake and apologise. They just double down and run the thread into the ground. Or on the other side, get angry and sling insults instead of taking the time to explain and properly defend their point.

We're all people, most of us who disagree with each other here don't act like it. Take notes, folks.

If Sparking Zero did a jump from 1% to 25% from 50% of BT3's content, then that means BT3 is 24 times bigger then Sparking Zero.

YES ffs. This was the SZ diss i intended. The overall tone of the post should have given that away, but here we are.

Ursprungligen skrivet av Buzzsaw:
Importantly, this 25% is a value of raw content, not BT3's content. You took a percentage of one thing (BT3's content) and mistook it for a percentage of another thing (Total content), since the later thing is partly made up of the former thing. Both times the final number was referring to BT3's content, whether its in original form or pushed into Sparking Zero. The 25% in your original message was NOT for total content, although that seems to be what you think it was.

I didnt mistake anything, you just simply mis-read it. The comment in it's original form still stands with zero mistakes in it. I shouldn't have to go and dumb it down so that others can understand it properly.

Ursprungligen skrivet av Buzzsaw:
People are treating it like a flat increase because both percentages are SUPPOSED to be of the same total, even if you thought you meant otherwise. You did NOT indicate they were of different totals. They're BOTH BT3 content. You did not even IMPLY otherwise.

Me using percentages, not once but twice is the implication that it wasn't a flat increase. If i say "im going to add 50% of veggies to your plate since you only have about 13% of your food left, which idiot would begin with flat increases? lol


I shortened the post to prevent the second page from being littered with incoherent further ramblings for other users to sift through. The only relevant things in it, aside from the quote you did of mine, was the 2 pieces of text i saved that i feel is worthy of a response to.
