My reaction to learning it will be another six months before more RWBY:

I have to agree that RT probably did not want it this way. Their statements about Volume 1 not being season one definitely left one with the impression that it would be only a few months between Volume 1 and Volume 2. During the mid-volume chat their talk of taking a break was definitely not of the "it will be eight months before you get more RWBY" persuasion.

My guess is that they were wanting to avoid the kind of rush they were in with Volume 1 and, hopefully (fingers crossed), make it easier for them to speed on into Volume 3 sooner.
