User blog:CrazyGeek31/How the Fanon changes

Hey guys,

it's me, Aaron. I was just thinking recently about how small the fanon used to be, and how messed up the rules were before RWBY Volume one officially launched. Before we had a lot of Canon info to go off of, people were creating all sorts of random OC's. There were Angels and Demons and Elves. Anything you could think of, someone had made.

Now that RWBY is out, we have a lot more information for the canon and what rules to go into making an OC. We have places to name in our Role Plays. We have characters to interact with and orginazations to be a part of. I guess what I'm trying to say that the Fanon really has grown over the past year. Since RWBY aired, the fanon went from having 134 pages to having almost 3000. We started out with 32 members and are now crossing the 700 line.

We have had some misshaps in the past with older member's in the past. (A.k.a. Rain/Hope) but nothing has seriously gone wrong with the wiki, and that's something to be thankful for. The Fanon is something that now several dozen people are contributing to weekly, mabye even daily. We have beautiful art and wonderful stories about character's that you, the users, have poured their heart and soul into. RPs now allow us to interact these characters and have fun with each other.

Our wonderful staff should also get a congratulations. Over the past year, several upstanding wiki members have taken responsibility and realy helped on the wiki. Some of these names include but are not limited to our admins Tsubori, ThanhnuFia (Who perfers Flora), Arren (DragonBossGala), Ragadorus, and TorrentAB. We also need to thank all of our other staff positions who all help manage the wiki in some specialized way. The fanon would be unorganized and a piece of crap without them.

Here's to another great year,

From, CrazyGeek31
