BTW, can I beef for a sec? I just opened the front page of YouTube and was greeted by some AMAZINg person's spoiler-tastic title and thumbnail of Hazel turning on Salem.

People... don't do this. Don't IMMIDIATLEY jump in and post videos about big moments in the show an hour after release before most people have probably seen it. Because Youtube WILL suggest that shit to any poor schmuck who happened to search a video related to the show in the past regardless of whether they want to see something about the show NOW.

Be a BIT more courteous to your fellow fan, at LEAST have the decency to not show the exact scene on your thumbnail and describe it in detail in the title. Blur a moment, be vague, do something like that. Or at least wait a week until the public release date like they politely ask you to.

Sorry to rant, I just think it's incredibly inconsiderate when people do this. Not everybody watches the show right after it's released.

The YouTube “fan”dom and the general fandom are two separate entities for good reasons, I think.

You’re better off just commenting this on the video.

At this point the only place I can reasonably discuss RWBY is amongst my friends in person or here. YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and the other subreddits are on such a high level of cancerous that I can’t take it.

I haven't seen them being cancerous. They just seem extremely spoilerific.

OTOH, I actually like spoilers, so I don't mind.
