First thing I want to say is: I told you guys. I told you the Wiki was unpopular, was hated, but "NOOOO".

189.217.47.59 wrote: according to everyone outside of this place: 1) The mods are tyrants, 2) the users are assholes, 3) the wiki is biased and adds their headcanons as facts. 1) Sometimes, some admins feel like that at times, one way or another. Though it's not something I feel about them all the time. Mods specifically? Not really.

Except in the OC-and-Related threads where they used to (at times still do) turn down ideas, or enforce "rules", for the cheapest of reasons that they didn't even follow consistently ("X must be Y because all X in the show are Y". Yet A doesn't have to be B even though pretty much all A in the show are B).

But that isn't something exclusive to the mods there, and even then it's not something they did 24/7.

2) The more abrasive users are the most active and thus the first seen. Though level of jerkassery varies by user and day. Of course, there's also the fact that some people are oversensitive, and anything slightly negative in a post is taken as a personal attack to their very existence.

3) Biased.......maybe. "Adds headcanon as facts".....yes, at times. Though it's not like everyone does it, and with some luck the speculation is pointed out and taken down. Eventually. After unnecesary discussion that's unnecesary due to Speculation not being allowed on the articles to begin with.

1) RWBY Wiki mods erase any edits that aren't theirs...2) RWBY Wiki edits Yang's character page = Status: Disarmed 1) It's logical people get that impression. Sure, many anons come to help, or try to, but when they edit pages they often add stuff that shouldn't be in the page, be it because it's Speculation, all the way to simply being Stupid (Like "Pyrrha: Status=Alive").

So the number of anons that make edits that aren't reversed instantly for X reasons tends to be 2-per every-10.

2) Like people have said here, those were vandals/kids trying to be funny.

Everytime a user makes a topic, post, thread about the RWBY wiki being shitty, I check what they're talking about and find that it's all made up. Really? Most of the time when I hear people talking about the Wiki negatively, I find them to be correct, but exagerated.

Thing is, those guys are my friends. People I trust yet whenever the RWBY Wikia is brought, everyone turns into a SJW and tears this place apart. It's that unpopular.

Why? What has the RWBY wiki done to deserve such hate? Multiple things, in the past and present. Some are the Wiki's community's fault, one way or another, while others are the visitors's fault, usually people too sensitive to deal with any sort of critic to their words.

Of course, could also be bias among some of the "complainers". Like people from the RWBY Fanon Wiki, which utterly despises this one, talking shit about this one as a result. It's happened before (though note, they do have their points at times).

I just find ridiculous how the whole internet agrees that this place is absolute shit based on nothing I can confirm as true. ....Say, for how long have you been here? Based on your contributions alone you've been interacting with this community since...yesterday. So it's possible you simply haven't experienced yet the things that have lead to said hate.
