Please do not badmouth players in my comments! Even if "Luna" is nice/strong/girl/half demon/leader of all clans, or a fox is your Leader, you don`t have to talk about them as if they were a peasant. We`re all equals! I support every player and I do not want my comment section filled with hate.
Comments deemed hateful towards any of these types of players will result in them being deleted!
Non-cat leaders are cool though-
I agree, not everyone can read the books, and people can be anyone they want to be.
Once ı was a vixen leader when people started to come people wanted to exile me bc ı was a fox ı dont get how people accept sheeps,tigers,dogs as leaders just not foxes but ı did change in to cat and still was leader
@Blueberryfur same
@@ashhlol They`re allowed in-game, in clans, etc. Unrealistic or not, the Devs aren`t stopping it. I roleplay as a WC mouse often!
Honestly the new players can be either way, power players, or just say like hi I'm new
I once saw an incredible person in a server where I was in rc- they were just sitting there and their entire name was: got tips? And
Their bio,
“I’m new here and I want to get to know the form of rp!” (That’s the gist of it)
AND OMG I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE HAPPY WITH A NOOB IN
WCUE
@@rosepetullz aww
i remember my first ever time playing i was in a 6 hours long roleplay. and i probably joined halfway through-
there was Cat1 and Cat2 who fell in love and Cat1 had 2 kits from Cat2.
when the two kits were apprentices, Cat2 somehow ACCIDENTALLY killed Kit2. it was really an accident, actually. i don't really remember but then Cat1 obviously really hated Cat2 and made his life a living hell. There was a clan meeting that went on for 2 hours and was really fun, that's where i joined.
so basically Cat2 was saved and everybody knew that it was an acident and he didn't mean it.
Cat1, however was exiled for many reasons, like killing some kits, emotionally torturing Kit1 and Cat1 to not tell anyone about it, stealing herbs from other clans and forcing her kit to step on their territory.
My oc was supporting Cat1 because um
FIRST TIME PLAYER LOGIC and Lesbian cats. mostly lesbian cats.
After Cat1 was exiled, i still visited her and i saw the Leader do it once too, still don't know why.
some time passed, i don't care about my apprentice the leader gave to me, and he logs out. frick.
meanwhile Cat1 gets an army and tries to raid WindClan but she was stopped halfway and there was war nex to the gorge. i was told to protect the kits.
But the mary sue i was i didn't do it and went to war.
i helped both sides, but caused more damage to WindClan.
Cat1 fell down the gorge and i climbed down to her, telling my feelings to her fricking corpse -_-
the Leader was too busy doing funerals and stuff and i didn't get kicked out. he said something like "Crow'tail, how could you" then left me be.
then i joined the rouges without announcing it and nobody cared for the news bc they didn't even know me.
happy end
Or the person who actually started playing after reading the books
Me when I joined the game “hi I’m new, sorry if I’m not good at rp!”
the non-cat reality differs, along with some others. it's basically not all the same thing like "hi" or "the vixen etc" sometimes the player is less... knowledged, with different types of how they go about it. some will say "kills" and some will be nice, it depends!
yeah! i agree with this. ill only void them if they do the "kills" thing. Other than that we are cool!
When I started playing this I didn’t even read the books! I actually learned all about the Warriors series just from these players, after nine years of experienced and two having no clue of what this game was about. It really only takes time so maybe some " Blaze/fast/strong/swift/anger issues/ might become some amazing player!
But this game hasn’t even been out that long..
@@BitterCyder perhaps they mean through beta and forest territory, I still remember that game, I don’t know how long forest was out for, but maybe that explains?
Me as well! I got into the books through WCUE
Same I recently started reading
Same here
I got into warriors and roblox itself (literally, I got onto the website by their group) by a group of RPers doing a retelling of Into the Wild. They only got up to after YellowFang I think.
The sad truth is, most people actually harrass and people for being non-cats, idk why, but it's heartbreaking.
It is, I've seen it happen so many times :(
[and yes ik this comment was a year ago, shush]
@@BOZMINE same, even the voiding one is pretty toxic imo. they did nothing wrong, why can't they be a part of the roleplay?
I remember the time where I was doing a dog park, a leader of thunderclan didnt like it and kept saying "this is warrior cats not dogs" and practically attacked us, tho we avoided them and they left,
2:07 ah yes the 3 genders, she, tom, and evil
the reality of the rogues, I love! Although as I do normally RP as a medicine cat most do take the herbs without reason, and it's ANNOYING!!!! RIP all those medicine shelves I spent an hour stocking up for an RP!
(Is a StarClan RP a good idea? .,.)
I think it would be cool
Maybe ask other people if they would mind or not
It's a good idea, in the old game it was easier though. There used to be a map for the Dark Forest and StarClan.
Dang I really miss the old game.
Yes, I do agree that's some rouges. However I like playing as a rouge and I just interact with the clans as little as I can.... Maybe if I'm feeling bored I'll hunt on Wind Clan territory, but that's about it.
@@sylviathegreat waot the old ones gone??? Damn!!
CAN I JUST SAYSMT REALLY OF TOPIC THO?? I LOVE THE DESIGN FOR ‘CLUELESS PET FOX’ AND I LOVE THE NAME ‘PRIMROSE’GLISTEN.’ IM SORRY I HAD TO POINT IT OUT
holds ocs gently
Stares in awe
Well, time to camp here and get ready for the premier. Better stock up on snacks before then.
With the new players/lunas, I really try to be nice first, or just ignore them. But I can seriously loose my cool very quickly
My bird just stared at me while my phone made monkey noises 😂
XDDD
WHEEZES IN MONKE
At the rouge or non cat part?
I just recently started playing WCUE not long ago and my very first morph was a version of my older oc named Houndwillow. He was named like that because his markings kind of looked like a beagle dog, he wasn’t a dog, just some cat with markings that kinda looked like a dog’s. I joined a server and then someone started harassing me for playing a dog. I feel like i was mature enough to just laugh to myself about it and not be affected by it much and then just leave that server, but if i had been younger and was still more new to roleplay that would have definitely discouraged me a lot.
Moral of the story, dont harass people for their morphs or just in general if someone seems to be “cringe” in rp, they are probably just new to roleplaying and need a little step in the right direction. They may refuse your help which is fine but a lot of times those people are just new and need some correcting on roleplay etiquette
All around great video, made me laugh at a few parts ❤️
The fact I met one of those anti non cat stereotypes in the wild is wild to me.
the fact that i used to be an anti non cat reality scares me
Anti noncat all the way, I wanna keep the role play realistic and keep it according to the rules of the books, but nope! People are starting to treat us lol lunas now which just furthers my dislike for noncats more.
@Ringonus I literally just explained why, did you even fully read my comment?
I deal with them often ;-; I love playing non cats and I see anti not cats harassing people all the time. Tonight I watched a cougar (yes non clan cat) harass a dog because the dog was speaking cat language... I sat there like wtf- and stood up for the dog because as long as you can have an engaging rp, idc what animal you are and if you speak cat (dragon and human I cross the line)
@Ringonus no probs :)
Tbh a lot of new players the young ones are just random- like they say the most random things
Sour patch kids ketchup
@@fanofalmosteverything4658 i'm bilingual
when i was new, i knew it was a roleplay game and need to make a cat with the colors. i was confuse because theres no bright color like pink blue etc
It can be really funny tbh
Lol moss leg be like:
**visible rage in game but probably just staring calmly at phone/iPad/computer/chromebook/whatevertheheckelsethereis**
Man I give you credit for these, I wouldn’t have the patience nor the time to do this lol
1:32 I LOVE THIS PART WHY AM I LAUGHING SO MUCH
Samee
It’s all fun and games until all the kits in the clan go neeeow
Can someone do 1:32 on loop for 1 hour
Non-cats, new players, and others can come in all different things, even the stereotypes, but I like how you’re bringing light to some groups! I used to really hate non-cats, but I literally have two non-cats now! I use a tiger shark, Wild with the shark glitch (go fully underwater, and always be able to swim fully underwater), and a fox oc Royalty, who just minds her own business. I used to be a new player, but in forest territory, I improved in beta, and my characters got better. I remember I always played as a tuxedo cat called Midnight’(I forget). Forest was when I made my second ever edgy oc about warriors too- but I’ve still kept her, since I think her story isn’t that bad, and she’s honestly really special to me.
how do you do the underwater glitch ?
Personally I think the thing about non-cats is that if the roleplay host or leader doesn't allow it for some reason or other- they don't like cats, animals other than cats don't fit in the roleplay currently- that's perfectly well! There's a lot of roleplay concepts where I use non-cats and it is equally as good as cat roleplays if the right people lead and participate
0:00 MOM THAT'S ME!
HAHA LOL I LIKE UR MORPH-
No one:
Kits: *NYOOOON NYOOOOON*
I’ve dealt with a LOT of new players. And most of them are really rude when I try to help them. But once and a while, New players a really respectful and grateful for any help I, or someone else, may offer. I met someone who was playing as a kit named “Luna” which, Was already a little concerning, so instead of telling them to stop playing or to go be mature, like I’ve seen so many times, I helped them and they seriously appreciated it! It was really sweet. I hope they’re doing well, and to any new platings of WCUE I hope you’re also doing well and if you have any questions, ask away.
The rude ones aren’t actually new players and most likely trolls
1:51
Me and the other rouges who started a cult in wc: h e h
Usually it’s not even rouges stealing herbs, it’s the other clans and once we had some fox’s come ask us permission to attack our clan (I think it was wind clan ) and we told them not to steal herbs, and they didn’t, However on the other hand a fox ate ALL our edible herbs because “they wanted to be in a clan” we told them to stop MULTIPLE TIMES but they didn’t we also said they wouldn’t get in a clan if they stole and they still did it, think I left a bit after that
i just found this video on my recomended, ( don't @ me ) just wanted to add something to #3 ( kits | reality ) whenever i play in sc as a kit, i find time to get all the available kits, and go eat rocks, then go to the medicne cat, and get an excuse to "learn" about herbs ( and potentally get medicine cat app / medicine cat bc of it )
I'm kinda new to this game and know very little of WC. So i have a few questions:
1. What's a Moonstone that's in the game?
2. What does a Moonstone do?
3. What's a rogue?
4. When RPing, when we wanna hunt/patrol/go outisde territory or anything should we ask the leader?
5. How do we RP as the leader?
6. How do we RP as the Medic?
I'd appreciate some answers haha.
Moonstone is a large shiny stone at the bottom of a cave.
Moonstone is "used" by leaders to receive their 9 lives and by medicine cats to communicate with the star clan. After that I don't remember the rest
Rogues are loners, cats without clans. They don't believe in the Star Clan and are totally free.
The Learder may ask you to patrol but if you want to do it you can just go tell 1 or 2 warriors so they know it
If you are a Leader, before midnight you must choose a deputy (someone who will succeed you when you die, etc.) then you go to the Moonstone to receive your 9 lives. So I advise you to see on the internet because I could not explain everything TwT
If you are a medicine cat, all you need to do is take care of what there are plants in the reserve and take care of the cats in your clan. If there is a war you don't need to fight, just take care of the healing.
Sorry besides I am French so my English is not perfect and also I have just read book 1 and I started on the 2 so I may have made mistakes in my explanations.
@@SosoIsSmall Wow, thank you so much! Finally i got answers :D 💓
@@onlyalf. You’re welcome
MoonStone is a giant rock underground.
Leaders receive their 9 lives and name there. Medicine Cats speak with starclan
Neither a Clan cat nor Kitty Pet
Outside Territory would have to ask leader. Patrolling and hunting can done whenever
Wait to become deputy or make a clan.
Become the medic in a starting clan or fill in for them.
@Ringonus The 9 lives are given when a deputy becomes a leader, they travel to the moonstone and fall asleep next to the stone to communicate with StarClan. When they wake up, they are in the presence of their deceased loved ones (family members, mentor, friends…) and each of them offers them a life for a quality. When the leader dies they lose a life, so they wake up in StarClan territory and one of his relatives announces that they have lost a life then the leader stays with them until his wounds heal then they return to life, when they reach their last life, they die for good.
NAW ROUGES BE SITTIN' AROUND BEING ANNOYING SPECS TAKING OVER YOUR CLAN WITH THEIR TRADING AND STUFF-
Yeah it’s like this until an old toxic players is like “shut up” to your “hi”
I love the rogues failing to insult the clan cats XD
“JUST LIKE A BUNCHA ANNOYING ROGUES, THOSE CLAN CATS”
“oh, wait…..”
“I FRICKING HATE CATS WHO CAN SPEAK ENGLISH”
“Shoot”
The stereotype anti non cat happed to me. Half of us were cats that looked like fox but I was a foxcate so I was part cat part fox.
The stereotypical version of Rogues are so annoying they either steal herbs or attack my camp for a made up reason it always happens
that stereotype for the kits is sometimes true
4:37 “HGRGRGRGRGR” LOLLLLLLLL
this look intresting and A m a z i n g :D
This is how AI describes your video:
Stereotypes VS. Reality [Warrior Cats: Ultimate Edition] is a video by FamouzIsHere. In this video, the creator starts by describing the warrior cat stereotypes that people have. They then show footage from the Warriors series that fits into those stereotypes. As the video goes on however, they show footage that breaks those stereotypes with more nuance and shows how the series is more complex than viewers give it credit for. The video ends with a call to action for people to expand their view of the series and give it more respect than it usually receives.
You’re welcome.
I died laughing at the kit part
What I do think is that if you play this game and you are told that they are based of books, they should go and at least do re-search and I don’t think foxes and dogs would ever be allowed in clans and tigers don’t live in a forest, at least I wouldn’t think in this kind of forest so if they play this game and we give them tips they should not act rude after which in my case they most of the time are, I even got banned for saying something back while it was less offensive and I didn’t even get to explain the story but they should prepare to get tips, sometimes harsh and sometimes in a nice way.
What`s nice is that this game isn`t the books, the Developers allow dogs and foxes, even tigers! Imagination is very useful in the beloved meow meow game!
DUDE THE ROUGD STERIOTYPE IS SO TRUE
Fun fact I once joined a server and i had just finished setting up my name and my bio and then all of a sudden someone comes to me types kills and runs away. It was very weird and i did not do anything but leave the game.
this made my day. the sounds
me to non-cats: perhaps I've treated you too harshly
bruh i actually met rouges who make fun of clan cats, so i dealt with them and they raged
AS a new plyer I a lot ask questions and be all "what the heck-- I cant understand this--" or when I try to play Med cat "I don't have the herb to heal you sorry" or just searching though the starpedia being like "I NEED TO BE QUICK-- AHHHHH THEY HATE ME FOR BENG SLOW DONT THEY?!" Or when there's too much roleplay I cant even understand what nd who I should go 1st, I just cant comprehend to much at once-- XD
I helped a new player once they were really nice! They didn't know how to make custom ocs so i told them how they can! Their first oc was really nice!
No, anti-non-cats always say ‘it’s a cat game’
Edit: I didn’t know this comment would start a riot LMAO. I was just saying my opinion, no reason to argue. :)
@Eliana Belleville it is, but no rules say, non cats can’t play.
Im not an anti-non-cat, I don't like non-cat clan members, so I just void them-
@@yipyotee I literally have non-cat oc's. I dont like
Non-cat Clan members.
Meaning non-cats like foxes or dogs that join clans.
@Ringonus I’m not?
@Ringonus wth? No your not. You’re saying I’m attacking you, when I’ve never spoken to you:
the rogue stereotype made me laugh, its so silly
/pos
*monke noises*
Non-cats aren’t all toxic but most of my encounters with them have been really really bad. I find that the raccoons and dogs are the worst while you see foxes a ton besides stealing kits they don’t really bother us
the reality for rogues is too accurate
Yea we did Monke Rp at rouge barn once and it was like that. We legit said things like ooh ooh ahh ahh in the chat and *monke noises*
When I first played I knew excactly what to do, made a oc joined a roleplay did a name and bio became a warrior and just a da good rp
Ok I swear its usually the "ArE yOu EvEn ExP?!!?!?!?, Do YoU kNoW tHaT rOlE pLaYs ShOuLd AlWaYs Be ReAlIIsTiC aNd No FoX sHoUlD bE lEaDeR?!?!?!?!?" and I'm specifically talking about this kind, yes the super nerdy kind that will always get super uptight and clan - LoreYYyY to make every roleplay super duper realistic and sometimes it makes it boring-
‘WhOs tHiS tHiRd PeRsOn?!’
Ooo, interesting!
LOL I LOvE ThE ROUGEs PART!
What if you were roleplaying Ultimate Edition, and you got hurt. Then, somebody ran up to you and yelled, “HEALS WITH POWERS” and ran away. Wouldn’t that be weird. (I actually saw this while playing Ultimate Edition)
This is so relatable
With non cats reality is….
Fox:HI how you doing?
Cat:what the-
The rogues reality is actually me- ;-;
Leader's Kit[s] stereotype : * Civilized, neat, good natured and kind *
---
Leader's Kit[s] Reality : * Bratty, Rude, is the " best " *
Edit : Im not trying to be rude, its just every Lead's Kit[s] I've encountered are like this-
yeah most of the time they just rock up and pester the leader into being their parent but obviously that's not always the case I've seem some really good leaders kits (even if they are not all too experienced)
Same, every leaders kit I’ve seen has always been like this.
oh this was before the annoying cats would come and eat all the herbs ! XD
When ever I'm a rogue in a clan camp minding my own buisness sitting there, cats attack me like "get out" and "your dangerous" like what am I doing wrong..
Not to be rude, but you were trespassing, that’s a reason, warriors are supposed to protect their clan meaning attacking a rogue intruding camp would be right. Same with non-cats, loners, or other clan cats who aren’t going to speak to the leader or something. Kitty pets I’m not sure, but they’d probably do the same with them.
They're edgy kids who think they own the game or some crap like that.
@@St0rmcloudy Yeah but he isn't roleplaying with them, so he doesn't have to follow their rules. How about ignoring the rogue?
@@VivianaSilverback Their trying to be realistic. The person could also just void it, you don't need to call people like me edgy kids who think they own the game.
"Hi."
*scurry away*
I experienced a rouge stealing herbs and prey alot and refused to go away
Idk what servers you're playing on but take me with you!
I personally have really only 1 non cat morph (which is a Pomeranian) and about 2 non animal-like cats I use (One that looks like a fox, and another that is based on a Chinchilla. The latter is a rouge/loner, for anyone curious), and 1 I don’t really use much (Which looks like a German shepherd)
New players usually: hi how are u let's be friends
is is just me or is stealing from windclans medicine den as a rogue kinda fun?
I did that once with my friend the whole clan was having an argument about something idek what we just hid a lot of the herbs in a bush we almost hid it all but my laptop crashed
3:31 I was watching this video in the middle of the night and my mom woke up at 3 AM to monkey noises she was like THE F*** ARE YOU DOING
At full volume
Kind of related?
Today I was the medicine cat in river’clan and this “raccoon” rogue ate all the herbs I collect and chewed all yarrow into poultice and left the game so I only had 1 yarrow left 😢
I eat all the herbs for no reason like the raccoon rogue 😂😂
@@looking_for_titan why 😭
i love it to freken much
*Me being the new player who says hi and the non-cat reality stereo type: I'm pretty sure I'm like that-*
The rouges stereotype literally happened to me a few days ago
Yeah-It's honestly really annoying
Yeah I was involved in that once and we did Monke RP in front of people who did TC Rp so they were all annoyed ;-;
When I first joined warrior cats, I knew a lot about it however I didnt read the books yet, I had a pretty good morph with the name RoseClaw :]
Roseclaw is such a nice name! :]
@@FamouzIsHere thanks, but my OC’s nowadays have much better names and more original- 😅
@@YourLocal_Weirdo0478 Sometimes simpler is better :D But I can understand coming up with different names.
Not all Luna's are rude and annoying, I'd like to point that out. Some don't know about game and need help with stuff. Also, being a non-cat is fine, personally I am one to. They can RP how they want to as long as they don't bother your RP without perms, simply just explain to them.
look at all da memowies when the grass was green ;-;
i miss the gween grass unu /joke
When I was new I had no idea what to do so I made a private server and ran around the land 😂
Off topic: should I sell my private server in WCUE? Reply if yes, like if no.
(Why do I look like a bot posting this in every video?)
soooooooooooooo true lol i see this all the time
I honestly met the sweetest new player. I was kinda being mean and was like "sorry but can you leave?" I was doing a specific RP and they kept sitting down like ontop of me. They didn't get mad and were just like "oh ok sorry"
Then Ive have another with someone like the name mud or something by itself so I helped and explained it to them and they were thankful about it. I hope there doing well.
But you weren't being mean-
Famouz?? from the golden clan? if so its Kapi!
Personally I like to take kits from clans as a fox and raise them in the barn to be rogues to kill the clans :)
The rouge one though -
What clan cat doesn't believe in StarClan- oh right MothWing didn't believe in StarClan.
For the rogues some rogues and cats rogues or not will steal herbs but won't always I made the mistake on most a rogue who was eating herbs had taken it but they didn't they had a herb that was maxed up on so please ask if a rogue is eating herbs I the medicine den instead of just guessing and reporting or blocking them!!!
As a person who has a border collie oc on this game this is very true.
Roblox is down i can't play warrior cats so this is the best i can do TnT (im so late lol)
Tbh ive been or experienced all of these lolp
Quality go BRRRRRRRRRR
i'm la t e
If i ever get Roblox ill be that one player who literally knows everything about warrior cat roleplays i do them a lot on animal jam
Edit: I got Roblox :D
Why is this so funny though-
Not gonna lie this would be me
The only reason i wanna be a famous youtuber is to not be lonely.
Another stereotype:
That one person who gets in their own private server with their alts to roleplay
Im that stereotype
Tbh I've always seen non-cts steryotyped as something like...
DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK CAT
GETS HURT A LOT
PUP/CUB
STRONG AND LIKES TO SNEAK AWAY
DOESN'T UNDERSTAND CAT RULES
PRETTY
NEEDS A LOT OF PROTECTION
IS VERY SPECIAL BECAUSE ISN'T A CAT
GETS BULLIED FOR NOT BEING A CAT
CAN KILL FULL GROWN BEAR BUT IS TOO INNOCENT
Like bro what 😃
At 1:44 I’m fairly certain that the rouge in the middle is a copied oc, I’ve seen the oc on Pinterest and it’s not that hard to find. I’m not sure if it’s a free to use oc, if it is I apologise.
A mod gave it to me and a few others during a raffle. Not copied.
@@FamouzIsHere Ah, okay, my apologies. (´ｰ｀)
My OC name is Brindle Rose
What is steroetype?
It’s like what you would think a type of person/creature would behave/act
It's a generalized assumption about a certain group or minority. Example: "all cats are evil and don't love you, and they can kill a person" That's a stereotype.
I’m not being hateful but I think that non cats are against the rules but I don’t have discord so I’m going off the old games rules but I have bad memories so correct me if I’m wrong but I’m fine with non cats
Non-cats are, in-fact, not against the rules! WC:UE isn`t the old game and the devs are more lenient.
@@FamouzIsHere oh ok I’m just dumb but some people told me it was against the rules but I’m pretty sure the game that got deleted (warrior cats forest territory) was the old game but this is the new improved game
Edit:I think in Forrest territory had a rule stating that non cats were not allowed
If anyone who reads this is confused warrior cats ultimate edition is the successor of forest territory which was shut down so people would only the wc:ue
@THALIDA ANTONIA PLEŞOIANU ok I was told by others they were
The mods host non-cat RPS on the discord! It is *very* allowed. :)
Ah, back in Sky clan it wasnt tolerated at all
Does ult still have no rules
If they dont they really need to get around to atleast adding some
@@CircusSabre If you go in the Discord, there are rules for the game in there! If I`m correct, Pav is trying to find a way to implement them into the game for all to see.
@@FamouzIsHere there are rules! Well, I can’t use discord, I’m not old enough, I really hope the implement them into the game cause I can’t get on discord, meaning I can’t see whatever I’m doing wrong.
