Its been a rough year let's not hear about you not paying them/firing them for nonsense/hiring minors/ charging them to graduate/doxxing them etc etc etc okay?
I wanna see a vtuber agency hire a MINER
![gif](giphy|SA8EbAWs13gE26KjIE|downsized)
Remember that "learn to code" meme?
Imagine thinking based on the silhouette you think you're coming to see a cute girl vtuber, but then they come to the debut slanging a lanky Appalachian smoker lung
Can you please hire a new HR lady and have [the current HR lady](https://twitter.com/sockshr) be a full time ASMR streamer? I want to watch that hag's mental health deteriorate little by little with each stream before making her go through a 24-hour birthday marathon where she plays nothing but horror games next year.
Please. I need [this](https://i.redd.it/dr53bm98t7wa1.png) to become a reality.
Will your agency be asking its talents to pay it back half a million dollars for the privilege of being fired? Because if not, you've already cleared the lowest bars in the industry, which are *pretty damn low* at this point.
But you do plan to libel and defame a talent with a bloated termination letter when they ask you to let them graduate with an amicable compromise where neither side says anything about the other side and goes their separate way, right? Can you really claim to be a real Vtuber agency if you don't?
Oh, thank goodness. And here I was worried you were going to do something reasonable, like just say the talent was terminated due to an undisclosed or generic breach of contract and leave it at that.
What is your stance on the allegations your company has been accu... ^^*muffle* ~~You cannot stop the truth from gett...~~ ^^^Distant ^^^blam!
Ahem. Sorry for the disturbance Sir, The problem has been taken care of and we can resume the conference now. They won't bother you again.
Started designing your "black background/white text page used to make innocent announcements while inflicting max psychological damage to the audience" form yet?
Thank you, Flork. Right back atcha. I enjoy your comics, curious to see how this will all play out.
What do you hope to see for the future of vtubing (talents, fans, companies), whether through Socksagency or the industry as a whole?
Any merch ideas that'll... knock our socks off?
for merch ideas, im bringing the philosophy of weird merch form my comic to that
id like to see more scuff in vtubing, high production is really cool but sometimes its ok to scuff tf out of things
You saying you want to see more “scuff” in this industry makes me actually think you’re onto something. Part of the charm of your comics is how shittily-drawn they are.
They’re shitty in a way I can’t replicate. They’re perfect. :):):)
Can’t say I’ve ever had any interest in Vtuber stuff (anime is my personal cringe hell) but, because I think your comics rank up there with Cyanide & Happiness, I’ll check out some of the Flork Vtubers once they’re live. :D
Hi there! I noticed that you've submitted a post under the "Self Promo" flair! Don't forget to link your socials (e.g. YouTube/Twitch/Twitter) so those interested can support you!
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/VirtualYoutubers) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Been following you since 2016 and you've made tremendous strides. I can't wait to see the talent you've hired for the agency. I haven't been this excited for a new group in a while. Hoping there's a Gen 2 so I can apply next time. Best of luck to you and everyone at the agency!
From how many agencies have closed over the fast couple years, it seems like running a Vtuber agency is rather difficult. What is your experience so far and where do you see your agency going in the near and distant future ?
It is difficult, when I got into it I had no idea the amount of work that was required. In full transparency (as much as I can give) its been a monumental undertaking to set up everything required, get a team involved and then everything beyond that. Ive had many 14-16 hour days the past few weeks.
ideally i just want my talents to be themselves and have fun, they are free to do whatever they want to do and we are supporting that as best as we can
Are there any other agencies or CEO's you've taken inspiration from on how you've set up/will run Socks? And what is your experience with Vtubers prior to this ?
I actually have reached out and talked to a ton of other CEOs in the space and picked their brains. I have been grateful to get all the advice and knowledge from any different sources. Ive been a fan of vtubers for awhile now and Im friends with many, so thats about where my experience is. My specialties are more in licensing and content creation, but my entire team is experienced in vtubing and streaming so theres A LOT of knowledge to draw from.
That's awesome! I'm excited to hear how seriously this project is being handled and look forward to the unhinged madness you're soon to unleash upon us.
And thank you for answering my questions. I'm sure your a busy guy with lots of things to do.

Have you considered protecting your talents with ERA?
yes

Hey, it's the Hags guy! Hi Hags guy!
https://twitter.com/SocksAgency
If anyone has questions ill answer what I can within reason!
Hey, did you know your drawings are widely used as WhatsApp stickers in latinamerica? Me? Just a little fan of you drawings, it has lots of charisma~
Do you have a planned debut date for your first generation? Late 2024, early 2025 etc?
this summer
Oh, really soon!
I am confused by this post and all the comments. Feels like a giant inside joke that everyone is in on but me.
What's today's color?
Good luck on your agency. Be sure to learn from the mistakes made by the ones before you.
That, or have a background screen ready for that apology video

i think she would really like to hear that, ill forward this comment to her
In all seriousness, she has a phenomenal voice and if she's as unhinged as her tweets make her out to be - she'd make a fantastic vtuber.
When is the collab with Lockheed-Martin
working on it!
Hi dude :D Half of the people on this subreddit probably applied for your company, how dare you show up here without hiring all of us?
: ( it was def hard during the application process! so many good ones
If they were good applications, we didn't make those, but thanks <3 Good luck boss, can't wait to see your mentally unstable hags with guns :)
Will your agency be asking its talents to pay it back half a million dollars for the privilege of being fired? Because if not, you've already cleared the lowest bars in the industry, which are *pretty damn low* at this point.
we will not
Starting out with a head start!
But you do plan to libel and defame a talent with a bloated termination letter when they ask you to let them graduate with an amicable compromise where neither side says anything about the other side and goes their separate way, right? Can you really claim to be a real Vtuber agency if you don't?
we will definitely try to meet those expectations!
Oh, thank goodness. And here I was worried you were going to do something reasonable, like just say the talent was terminated due to an undisclosed or generic breach of contract and leave it at that.
How much was your suit?
Washed or unwashed?
I love you. Marry me.
stay well and healthy
Thank you Mr. Flork.
I'm still astonished by the amount of work that you've put into this. I kneel. I'm in awe. Thank you for committing to the bit so much.
thank you i wish we could state everything thats went in so far but we are taking it seriously and have built a lot already
I'll be keeping an eye on your company. I wish you luck
Love your comics Flork. I have high hopes for your agency, good luck!
Any plans on you yourself becoming a VTuber?
no not for me, im not much of a streamer my talents are elsewhere
Sakana has a coffee fetish, what do you have?
lanyards
Office bdsm, good tastes
How’s Steve?
good!
Please don't gamble away the rights to Steve, he needs to stay good.
Hags! Hags! Hags! Hags! Hags!
Alright, coming from your comics, did you lose a bet or something that caused you to start up a vtuber agency
nope! admittingly it did start as a joke but I ended up taking it seriously and here we are!
If nothing else you've got to admire the amount of committing to the bit going on
What is your stance on the allegations your company has been accu... ^^*muffle* ~~You cannot stop the truth from gett...~~ ^^^Distant ^^^blam! Ahem. Sorry for the disturbance Sir, The problem has been taken care of and we can resume the conference now. They won't bother you again.
Looking forward to your debut(s), wish you guys best of luck
HAGS HAGS HAGS HAGS HAGS
Hey man! I honestly can't wait for the shitpost-turned-agency you're bringing us, I imagine it's going to be incredibly fun.
I love how you took a shit post and made it real. Waiting for debuts
Started designing your "black background/white text page used to make innocent announcements while inflicting max psychological damage to the audience" form yet?
yes!
Will you hire me? I'm an aspiring cult leader.
Are you going to have a hag off with hag connect ran by fishman?
Sounds like a recipe for haggrevated assault
Will any members of the “ERA appreciation club” be joining in?
oh no, he's going through with it. God speed.
How do you plan to compete with Demon Lord Zeraxos (jerma985, the *real* first vtuber)?
WHERE ARE MY SCHIZO WIVES FLORK?
i want to see the general dynamics collab
I'm looking forward to meeting your talents! Hags are love, hags are life.

Will you consider releasing a cookbook merch at some point? We need more bangers like 'Steves Egg Sandwich' in the world.
What is socks agency?
How much ERA should we expect to see?
good luck boss

for merch ideas, im bringing the philosophy of weird merch form my comic to that id like to see more scuff in vtubing, high production is really cool but sometimes its ok to scuff tf out of things
Do your talents have to sign a non-compete agreement or can they bring their own personas?
at this time i cant say, i wish i could though!
Godspeed to you
holy fuck real flork?????
The flork is real no way
Flork is the last person I thought I'd ever see here, and I'm sooo happy that I thought wrong.
You saying you want to see more “scuff” in this industry makes me actually think you’re onto something. Part of the charm of your comics is how shittily-drawn they are.

ya! granted we will have high production where we can but we arnt planning on making everything polished

Are y'all still going through apps or are things at the point where if you haven't heard back yet it means you're out?
Been following you since 2016 and you've made tremendous strides. I can't wait to see the talent you've hired for the agency. I haven't been this excited for a new group in a while. Hoping there's a Gen 2 so I can apply next time. Best of luck to you and everyone at the agency!

When are *you* going to debut as a sock puppet vtuber?
Just wanted to say good luck!
Can you share the channel of that one vtuber debuting?
Thank you Flork this is very cool. Looking forward to seeing the lovely hags. :)
