RWBY Thread III: Time To Say Goodbye

Stop: So gotta few things that need to be said real quick.
so gotta few things that need to be said real quick.
We get a lot of reports from this thread. A lot of it is just a series of people yelling at each other over arguments that have been rehashed hundreds of times since the end of the recent Volume. And I get that the last Volume - and RWBY in general, really - has some controversial moments that people will want to discuss, argue about, debate, etc.

That's fine. We're not going to stop people from doing that, because that's literally what the point of the thread is. However, there's just a point where it gets to be a bit too much, and arguments about whether or not Ironwood was morally justified in his actions in the recent Volume, or if RWBY and her team were in the right for withholding information from Ironwood out of distrust, or whatever flavor of argument of the day descend into insulting other posters, expressing a demeaning attitude towards other's opinions, and just being overall unpleasant. That tends to happen a lot in this thread. We want it to stop happening in this thread.

So! As of now the thread is in a higher state of moderation. What that means is that any future infractions will result in a weeklong boot from the thread, and repeated offenders will likely be permanently removed. So please, everyone endeavor to actually respect the other's arguments, and even if you strongly disagree with them please stay civil and mindful when it comes to responding to others.

In addition, users should refrain from talking about off-site users in the thread. Bear in mind that this does not mean that you cannot continue to post tumblr posts, for example, that add onto the discussion in the thread, with the caveat that it's related to RWBY of course. But any objections to offsite users in the thread should be handled via PM, or they'll be treated as thread violations and infracted as such.

I agree with Zam. The bottom line is that for Salem's goal, the Staff won't help. It won't get her into a vault, it won't locate a Maiden for her.

I mean sure maybe she could use it to make poison gas or something, but why bother? All that would do is kill humans, and she's already very good at that.

Salem isn't a gamer, so I'm doubtful that for her Endgame she's going to be focused on min-maxing an artifact that fell into her hands.
 
Sorry, I just imagined Twitch Streamer Salem. I'ma need a minute

"Let's talk about our sponsor. Secret conspiracies to overthrow the kingdoms require secure methods of communication that you can be CERTAIN respawning jerks can't access, which is why I use WattsVPN..."

Even better, Salem Vtuber: Most people think she's just doing some moe-horor schtick, when in reality she's constantly dropping lines that make it obvious to anyone in the know who she actually is. She is also inexplicably popular at Beacon.
 
Ah yes, how DARE Yang grab Blakes hand to make sure she gets away from the Apathy! She's forcing herself on Blake! Yada yada and blah blah.
Oh, I remembered it as idiots who were like "How dare Yang ignore Ruby and focus on Blake" despite Blake being the really checked out one while Ruby is fine.

I find the idea of Oz and co watching this and just being incredibly frustrated but not able to do anything about it without showing their hands really funny for some reason XD
 
Where do you people go to be exposed to this madness?

I want to know what to avoid.

I admit, Bumblebee still isn't my favourite ship, but it's grown on me a lot.

She picked up gaming as a hobby and had Watts make an Stuber (scrolltube) model for her based on how she really looks.
Ozpin tries to play it off to his allies that this "Salem" and their Salem are likely 2 different people and it's just an odd coincidence.
Ozpin privately decides to "fight fire with fire" and gets someone to make a model for him as "Osma" (close but not exact to try and keep people off him about it and based on his original body) and tries to build a reputation of his own and try and eventually get into a game with "Salem".
shenanigans ensue.

There are reasons I avoid large parts of Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, Instagram, Youtube... Until you curate your feed, you can see some real shit. These days, it's mostly newer idiots I didn't block yet coming into post chains with 'Ironwood is the real hero for sacrificing Mantle, Ruby deserved to be ****** for daring to disagree' and transpobia. And they get blocked quickly enough.

NOW IF YOUTUBE WOULD STOP RECOMMENDING CONTENT FROM CHANNELS I BLOCKED, that would be swell.
 

I've got several issues with this , mostly minor that don't make me angry or anything but make me feel it's one of those takes that only work if you twist stuff to fit. But I am going to go over em just because

So eula is kinda Sarcastic but I'm not sure if I would Describe as sarcastic because her thing is way different than what sarcasm brings to mind. She Where is vengeance and revenge upon people for small things but is a good person and her revenge is not really what revenge brings to mind. So like her revenge for getting a free Salad is to leave money for it. Or her rushing in to Assist you with back up because you kill stole from her.
The Rebellion thing didn't fit eula at all like she did go against her family's wishes but like the knights are like the governing body for monstate. Vs the Happy huntress being like Robin hood's gang. Also is Robin blonde I thought she had white hair, but where Acting grand master jean is definitely blonde she is only Feisty if compared to like 1950 housewife Expectations.
I mean I eula was Kinda Rejected but like not really the same way as may.
Also fight against ancient horror thing is also kinda iffy because technically the traveler dose all their stuff pretty mostly solo story wise.

But also I think eula would be closer to a Schnee, if it wasn't just Primarily Fuanus that hated em,

Even better: Salem actually streams her real self in her throne room and everyone is impressed by the level of realism of her "model" and "background". Ozma is frothing in frustration at being the only one to know that it's all real.

lmaoo, I recently got back into the fandom, n the FNDM is why I looked up how to prevent specific channels from showing up on my recommended xD

YT has two forms of 'blocking': one is called blocking n prevents the channel from commenting on your stuff, and the other is the 'Don't recommend channel' option that pops up when you go to more options (the 3 dots button) on a rec'ed vid from that channel. YT has no built-in way to prevent their content from showing up in ur searches though. sadly.

also i'm still waiting for Ruby to burn something down, so the entire team have arson'ed :D
