@IP 86, you are not an UTAU, UTAU is also a software.

@SuperTEMPEST42, unfortunately CFM doesn't always have a good reputation... Their is issues with them doing the bare minimum to create content for their Vocaloids, focusing on Miku at the cost of other Vocaloids, generally ignoring things like Miku not being the first V2 but Sweet Ann, and then when the issue gets too much they have since re-worked it to hide Sweet Ann ever existed before Miku by use of careful wording.

Then there is the issue of because of theirVocaloid, other vocaloids struggle to get attention... Our pages have to remain neutral, we can't note everything and have to present things so others can take their own opinions. To the point that sometimes it creates illusions about the Vocaloid software itself. We paint a rose colour painting of Vocaloids often, or dark shadows because we report on Controversy Concerns, there is nothing we can do. We can't ignore some issues and have to report them, so it paints a picture that readers read and get false impressions of. Then there is the fandom of the west being disconnected to the Japanese, Spanish, Korean, Chinese fandoms, so what we do and feel as fans is different and even the wiki can't cover every aspect of the fandom here.

And Miku's been the one vocal whose really divided non-Vocaloid fans... We get judged all by her. Miku's not at fault. But even among fans... I've been attacked for hating her... We're all suppose to be Miku fans? I've done more to get Vocaloid noticed then many, so when I was attacked for not "being a true fan" in the past, I was kinda insulted and gutted.

Its really hard to talk about Miku at times for this, I find myself bringing up a lot of negative stuff about talking about her, but its like with Sonika, the Megpoid V4 package.... There are some issues that follow vocaloids or products, like the Kagamine V2 era problems... These never go away. And often you can't avoid talking about these topics. To get a full picture on a subject, you have to look at both good and bad about it. You can't love Miku and be blind to her negative side, otherwise you end up being blind. But likewise, haters shouldn't ignore her good side either as Vocaloid wouldn't be the same without her. ITs such a divided problem. :-/
