I read what Damesukekun has said... Unfortunately bad behaviour happens.

A lot of it seems to be despite the controversy they still are around, whereas others quit when discovered. No matter how the producer acts, its their choice to continue on. Its unfortante, but a lot of fault lies with the fans who do support them and continue to encourage them on despite the fact they misbehave.

What would have happened if planty-p or Ricardo had stuck around despite the criticism? Eventually they would have had a following despite their behaviours. When something is taken away, people are more likely to criticise then when it exists from my experience. While I don't understand why this is, I'm not going to pretend its not a thing either, and producers supply the internet with songs that leave can have the same effect. So if a bad producer bares their teeth and endures their criticism and hate, eventually they'll get to a point wherein the people supporting them outnumber the people who don't and you get a loyalty versus morality situation.

We as fans don't want bad producers I suppose, but this is not always the case and even then... Behind closed doors things may be going on we have no idea are dodgy. Think how many producers, particularly in the west, are actually using illegal vocaloid even when they claim they are not? How many react versus how many who don't care? It doesn't help when there is a counter culture at all.
