Don't even bother: unknowing butchers the English language and doesn't care.
Also: I think he means that Weiss was "too shy" to stand up to her father. You know, the man who is possibly the single most powerful man, money and political power-wise, on Remnant?
During the undisclosed amount of time between the Black trailer and Volume 1, Episode 1, obviously.

When was Blake a vigilante?

She's not confident enough...
It wasn't "kill or be killed" it was "kill or be ignored"...only threats are killed.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Too much complaining about other tropers going on in this thread.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.I'm going to keep on making that joke until it stops amusing me.
Yup, pretty much.
And also, nearing the end of Season 2, Jaune already became good enough to solo an Ursa by himself, which speaks far better than whatever Blake can.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.Normally I relish the chance to mock Blake's incompetence, but while initially I only saw Blake running to save herself/keep her friends safe from Adam - the crack about her becoming a vigilante makes some deal of sense.
Have Blake become the terror that meows in the night? Her character arc was about her doubting herself and going into overdrive to stop Torchwick right? Then Oobleck called her on her shit because "ooh Ms I'm an ex-terrorist with a mysterious and bloody past, well Blake what are you actually doing about it?"
So now that she's on her own, leaping across rooftops, her moonlighting as a cat-eared avenger preying on the superstitious and cowardly would kind of make sense. They've already established the WF meet at random warehouses in the city and that few actually seem to recognize Blake, so she could easily infiltrate and sabotage their meetings.
Not sure how effective that would be toward actually stopping them at this point but it'd be a start.
Then again a lot of drama could be milked from Blake spending a season without her friends and having no place to call home.
I mean, so are Sun and Neptune. :/ They're just less marketable.

I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!" unknowing butchers the English language and doesn't care."
I do, in fact, care, it just happen when I write to fast...but hey, tell me what I think about something I do, please
Anyway, when I said Weiss was to shy is that the narrative set her to confront her father, winter talk to it, build confidence and in the end....she return to him, that it, is not a bad think consider what happen to others but it still happen
And no, the whole "Blake is usless" is not going away because it just happen again in Voume 3 as Blake did nothing against Adam, and before you said "he is strong!" I dont refer to that, I mean the whole thing looks silly: she shoot him, he block and them he give her a bitch slap and...that it.
In fact is probably a good thing Yang was one shot because otherwise it look Blake was damisel in distress so Yang can save her
to be honest, most of this complain is because we dont really have any new material aside of chibi episode who are non-canon to being with, we like a bunch of people staring at each other waiting to RT to deliver the next volume.
"My Name is Bolt, Bolt Crank and I dont care if you believe or not"For all the mockery I make towards Blake's incompetence as a warrior, I do genuinely like her character arc the most out of Team RWBY. I do feel that it wasn't explored to its full potential, but that's within an understandable scope.
Personally? I actually feel that Blake deserves kudos for her action in that scene. I mean, let's face it, Yang didn't stand a chance, so what does Blake? Nothing. She did the wise thing and used her ability to get away from the scene, rather than trying to fight him.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.I highly doubt Blake ran to save her own skin. If anything, she ran to save everyone else's skin. It's pretty much Superhero Logic 101. "My archnemesis has sworn bloody horror upon everyone I love, so if I run away from everybody and never love anyone, no one else will have to suffer."
Vigilante is an interesting theory but whether or not she's become one, I'm pretty sure her distancing herself is simply so that no one else gets hurt like Yang.

We have a winner. Especially since Adam proceeds to prove his point by maiming Yang.
Unfortunately, no one else in the thread seems to believe (or understand) that.
... Which, now that I think of it, also reinforces the "Adam was abusive to Blake in the past" thing. If your abuser suddenly shows up out of nowhere, that's not something you're prepared for.

Adam doesn't really know of anyone else Black has been involved with...I feel like if he's gonna keep true to his promise, he should constantly hunt down Yang.
Until the team title drop regroups.

Well, she was a vigilante before the start of the series so...
