While still questioning why I'm still on bigo, and Snapchat (aside from premiums)
I get pissed off with the rules and how Bigo interacts with users.
(The pictures are out of order. The last one should be first, where she's like I'm preparing to go to a party I don't even wanna go to. Helping People as he calls himself is trying to say hi to me. Then I call him out as I usually do. Then he leaves and comes back as Jason Leroy. On the one hand at least he's not a robot. It's just annoying to deal with because he always shows up and says the same thing which too many users on Bigo tend to do.)
And I'm really just annoyed with this dude.. but just too tired to care.
So I tried to ignore him. And the broadcaster is oblivious. Usually (this week) broadcasters have seen the 'fighting' and would get mad and kick one or both of us out. I figured I'd just ignore him.. but got caught up in another Bigo drama on my other phone anyway so left this one open.
I mean honestly she's a breathtakingly gorgeous young woman. Her profile says she's 23 but that doesn't mean anything. They all have to lie to avoid getting banned if they are still teenagers. Typically I don't care (if they are just pretty or really pretty etc, I just stick around if they sound nice or are interesting) because I just want to get to know them.
Sedna (a mostly unremarkable minor celestial body and mythological mistress of the sea) caught my attention a few days ago because of her attitude. She's happy and light hearted but smart and sharp. Maybe a little conceited. Comes off as really nice though and has a really important skill for bigo. She gives no fucks and can ignore that she's broadcasting. And she reads my chat messages. That might sound arrogant but it's important because filtering between the assholes and people that just want to chat and joke around is actually really hard for some people. They'll take everything at face value and get pissed off at everyone. If they do that filtering themselves they don't need an admin and that means I can try less hard to be read with more importance. It makes getting to know them even easier.
This skill though reminds me that one of the reasons to be on Bigo is just the voyeurism. When the broadcaster ignores the camera... It's even better because the typical bigotard dumbfucks that try to interact with the ones with this skill and get ignored get bored and leave. Like the pedo I've decided to call helping others. He got bored twice now after I replied to him once then ignored him but the broadcaster replied to me even if it was only a couple of times before she turned her back on us to do her hair.
What was unusual about this broadcast (and why I left it open and just went on to my other phone), was that she hasn't broadcasted from home that I know of before. I don't follow her so I don't really know. Normally I catch her broadcasts in the morning when she's in class. She just leaves her phone open while she talks to her friends only occasionally checking her phone.
It was also unusual because she was alone in the room so there wasn't other people to talk to or talk about. But as she was ignoring the phone anyway while she was doing her hair and makeup it was impossible not to realise the only people in the broadcast must be the true voyeurs. Typically no Bigo broadcast has under 100 viewers but almost no one talks. The prevailing assumption is that they are all bot accounts. If they have no level or evidence that the interact with gifts then it doesn't matter if they are bots or voyeurs. Heck they might just be recording everything.
Eventually the drama in the other broadcast (where I'm relatively new boiled over.. I felt I had to try to defuse it on my other account). That's hard when you're an unknown account dealing with teenage drama over the internet. All I had to say though was that I'm LZIM when she was like wait.. who the fuck are you (new person acting like you know what's going on) and she was like oh ok you kinda know what's happening because you've been here before. The risk of being kicked out even though I was kind of a regular was pretty real.
I don't care so much about being kicked out I just can't help but meddle.
So that situation boiled over (a breakup between bigo friends that were dating but had feelings for other people) and she decided to take it back offline.
I went back to Sedna's broadcast.
She was still fixing her hair. Over an hour.. just fixing her hair and not interacting at all with the phone. Unusual. She was facing the mirror so had her back to us probably to show the progress of crimping her hair. I tried a couple of times to chat something, trying to catch her attention when she glanced back but failed. It's hard because Bigo like most streaming platforms has a slight delay.
And I mean the situation of such blatant voyeurism doesn't bother me.. at least taking at face value that she started the broadcast and was running it this way and was not having to deal with the typical assault of bullshit from thirsty lecherous fucks. It was just a different way to show how much effort girls put into preparing themselves for parties.
I was trying to ask her what she was thinking about the whole time.. while kind of entranced by how she was playing with her hair while crimping all of it.
When she was done with her hair I complimented it and hoped she'd have a good time at the party she didn't even wanna go to because of the effort she'd put in. She then ended the broadcast.
It was just weird because her dad.. or some adult male in the house had interrupted a couple of times and just walked in (like he owned the place to give her a hug). I chatted aww how sweet.. but before reading the message, as he was walking out she closed the door behind him and did some air punches at his back.. then turned to the phone and went help me! Then she went back to the mirror and was talking to herself belligerently about how she was expected to respect her elders even though they don't necessarily deserve it. Sadly being old I have comments to add but she wasn't talking to us, she was talking to herself in the mirror. I'm not making assumptions or anything but..... Just saying it's intriguing.
I lol'd because I half expected it (the help me to the camera) from the sightly held too long in an awkward hug and the glare she made at the phone when he turned to leave.. but it was only clear after she'd done it. Only clear that it was a weird embrace. (Might just be older brother.. but he was much older)
And the dress is short. It's short enough that you notice it but she would be looking into the mirror, her back to us, and pulling it up. Not too high for it to be lewd but high enough to raise an eyebrow.. like.. why? Don't pull your dress up that high.
The other thing that was less weird was when she finished her makeup, she read my message asking what she'd been thinking about, she remarked how stupid it was to have been broadcasting for so long about nothing or about herself in such a blatantly voyeuristic way. Figured due to that obvious regret that she wouldn't talk for long (also she said she'd be going to bed after she was done) but I guessed every word counts in that situation to defuse the awkwardness of realising someone was there the whole time (even though I was busy part of the time).
As she's been pretty regular with broadcasting I'm wondering if she's put off now or not. I mean she's genuinely interesting and good with broadcasting. I'd have to say she rivals my other friend that got banned for being so magnetic while pretty much ignoring the chat. If she wasn't too put out she might broadcast lifecam style from her room more often.
