User blog comment:Jkphantom9/Shane Newville: "An Open Letter to All Who Treasured Monty Oum"/@comment-27806015-20160513025130

This letter is almsot certain compried of a core of truth– I don't find it surprising that Monty pissed people off at Rosster Teeth; it sounds like the way he worked was both incredibly efficient and annoying for those outside the loop. On the other hand, Rooster Teeth's treatment of Shane and Sheena is completely inexcusable. While there is probably a greater reason that Sheena was not allowed to work for RT (I find it difficult to believe that Rooster Teeth flat out rejected someone who could have shed light onto what Monty had planned: Shane's description of events seems to be be leaving out some otherwise key details), not letting her be a part of it if she wanted is horrible.

In addition, I personally view Rooster Teeth stepping in and limiting some fight scenes to be both a boon and a curse. On the one hand, Raven attacking team JNPR in a cafe doesn't seem to make much sense– if she's as dangerous as Qrow implied she was, and as she looked when she fought Neo, I can't comprehend why she would attack a group of students in broad daylight, or why she would even do it. In addition,  I personally agree with RTs decision to cut Yang and Adams fight: the current animation demonstrates just how powerful Adam can be with his semblance, and shows how much the main characters have to improves. I really wish that the Adam-Blake fight was kept however– emitting that seems like a horrible decision, unless they revised their production schedule because of Monty's passing and figured that they wouldn't be able to include the fight and finish production on time.

Hopefully we'll be able to hear RT's side of things so we can see both sides of the arguement
