Embarrassing Things You've Done In The Fandom

[ThatGirlMyra]

Exactly what the title implies. No limit on how embarrassing. Go.

Here's one I think (hope) everyone's done.

"Yeah, my favourite anime character is Akita Neru!"

 

[Geranium]

Being 12 and commenting in full english sentences on niconico

 

[CV420]

Uploading my plug-and-play, horribly mixed, out of sync covers to Youtube and thinking they're "good".

 

[Aikonow]

Plastering a typo'd, poorly timed and what was probably the third set of english lyrics on the rolling girl vid on NicoNico. My internet was also really bad that day so add random duplicates of my "lyrics" to that list.

 

[Pup-p]

Thinking Neru and Haku were Miriam and SweetAnn

 

[BigScreenTV]

Being completely unaware of Meiko's existence, the Cryptonloids were the only Vocaloids, and thinking that Miku was the first one released.

 

[ZAR-PARTY | ЦАРЬ-ПАРТИ]

Voting Miku for Super Smash Bros.

 

[ThatGirlMyra]

Thinking Neru and Haku were Miriam and SweetAnn

...

 

[Kona]

Pronouncing Kaito as Kayto for the first year I discovered Vocaloid and believing everyone who said Kaito correctly was wrong

 

[ThatGirlMyra]

Pronouncing Kaito as Kayto for the first year I discovered Vocaloid

YES

 

[Blue Of Mind]

My cousin used to pronounce Kaito as 'Kayto' back when we were still in school, and it always irritated the crap outta me. X)

 

[cafenurse]

The phase I went through when I found out Miku wasn't the first Vocaloid and that Haku and Neru weren't Vcaloids so I had an elitist attitude and rubbed in everyones faces at all times that I knew these facts thinking it made me look super cool and knowledgeable.

 

[Jikyusan]

In 2011, I made a fake Vocaloid called Tailsloid, which was a pitchbend of Len. This was old and now I don't like mentioning anything regarding that because I was a immature tween back then and I've gotten harassed about it in recent years. Currently, I'm an adult and I've matured from that low level. =w=

 

[Retrocat]

Making a fan-vocaloid even though I knew UTAU existed, but somehow not fully realizing that UTAU was actual software I could use to make my fan-vocaloid "real".

 

[ramencup]

make terrible plug&play covers with oliver

 

[summers50]

make terrible plug&play covers with oliver

Haha, I remember one guy who did that on VO. What a riot that was

 

[WyndReed]

I pronounced IA as eye ah for quite a while. Also, I was told that there was a kid in one of my classes back in 6th grade who had Miku and Rin/Len and I thought smugly “Why would some kid have a vocaloid? He’s not a vocaloid producer.”. I know better now.

 

[Amy☆]

My entire existence in the vocaloid fandom was an embarrassment basically the entire time I was active on VO lmao not only was I new to vocaloid, but I was also new to internet culture. Not a good mixture, especially for the vocafandom.

Same here! I cringe at remembering some of the posts I've made on VocaloidOtaku years ago.

Don't be embarassed that you're a noob, it takes time to gain the status of le veteran memers like me, who were around since the conception of vocaloid in 1982
