If anyone is worrying about not having time to archive everything you want RT content wise before the shut down, may I make you aware of The Archive Of Pimps the huge community archiving project which currently has about 96% of Rooster Teeth's content archived (everything is still getting organised so its easier to find, but its in there)

Hey Watcher fans, if you guys are looking for new content to listen to now that Watcher is disappearing into a paywall I reccomend checking out Red Web!

They're also an unsolved mystery podcast with 2 hilarious hosts Trevor and Fredo and they used to be part of Roosterteeth but now that RT is shutting down they're going indie and making their own channel to continue the show in the future. (We aren't sure if they're changing their name yet but for now it's still called Red Web) They have some topics that cross with Watcher and Buzzfeed Unsolved but they also dive into modern internet mysteries, mysterious historical artifacts, ARGs and even a few ghost hunts of their own and they're extremely passionate about it that they wanted to continue their show even after their parent company shut down.

I reccomend checking them out and supporting them as they branch out from their main company just like Watcher did with Buzzfeed many years ago. Who knows? Maybe we can help them become the new Watchers in the future?

The RoosterTeeth site will be deleted May 15th 😔 do yourselves a favor and start archiving EVERYTHING you can now. RageQuit, RvB, X-Ray & Vav, the Minecraft Let's Plays, RWBY, etc. RT is warning us as nicely as they can that there's a p good chance we won't be able to access ANYTHING by next year, including the YouTube channel. Download!

im somewhat belatedly quite devastated.

rt's been a large part of my life since before youtube was even a big thing. and watching these people, old and new, talking in this livestream has me shedding tears i thought i was too grown and resigned and accepting to let free.

im in a little bit of a "What am i going to do now?" spot too. there's gonna be a void, and im gonna hit a grieving period that i cant dismiss.

the "its just a ____." is such a shit take, and anyone making it is soulless.

my heart really goes out to everyone involved with rt, everyone that poured their heart and soul and creativity into it, from the company side to the contractors to the fandom.

i really hope to see the phoenix [many] rise from the ashes here, and something new and brilliant come from all the people that still want to create and participate and make and reach out and touch.

ill miss you rooster teeth, more than i can express. and i hope that i see you all again in new places and doing what you love.

despite every bump and burn and frustration and angry disappointment, and for every bit of magic and joy and laughter and stupidity and creativity, i've loved being part of it. thanks for the memories.

goodnight, rooster teeth.

"Rooster Teeth is shutting down after 21 years."

Rooster Teeth got me through the worst times in my life, and I've met some of my best friends through this amazing incredible fanbase. They have impacted my life more than they will ever realize.

It's been a bumpy ride, but I will never regret being a part of this community.

Thank you for the memories, RT. Love y'all❤️🐔
