My theory is that Weiss is basically a female version of Zuko, from Avatar: The Last Airbender (she's got the scar and everything). She comes across as a highborn bitch, just like Zuko was a total asshole in season 1. But remember, that's not her natural demeanor--she's jst like that because of her status and her implied family problems.

Weiss is actually my favorite character, because in my opinion, she is the most complex character in the series and has the most potential for development. There's probably going to be some big cathartic bonding moment, where Ruby finally convinces Weiss that she doesn't need to be so prickly all the time.

Then, she'll ultimately have to make a choice between her family and her friends. Looking forward to that episode.

When the thread says "everybody hates weiss", he probably meant the characters. Not the RWBY community.
