Where the hell was Fighteer during this?

Or does he only appear when Bobby Kotick needs a rimjob?

Well, the mods were deliberately ignoring that thread until this January...When they nuked it.

But I only archived a handful of the recent pages before that happened, so only God knows how much autism that was in that septic tank.
 
Taking cues from Papers, Please, is he?

Imagine being unable to understand sarcasm in a review. Tropers are too autistic to read sarcastic content.

Or they're too autistic to tolerate anyone saying anything bad about The Last of Us 2. They always have to frame it in a way that goes "Well, sooooome people like it!"

The YMMV page for that game is an absolute clusterfuck. For starters, they use the word "detractors" so often you'd think all of it was written by one person. Note how they say the story is "extremely divisive":

Can't call it "Sequelitis", nope. It's gotta be a "Contested Sequel":

They never call Abby "The Scrappy," just "Base-Breaking Character" as if there are people out there who genuinely like her. They also really, really hope there are people out there who agree with Druckmann's moral of "Ellie bad":

And the "Broken Base"" entry is a thousand miles long:

Meanwhile, the game does have an entry for The Scrappy, which consists entirely of one-note side characters:

This is hardly unique to TLOU2 and is further evidence that all subjective tropes should be banned.


These smooth-brains can't take criticism and will argue sementics until the other party gives up.

On one hand, they don't allow any criticism of things they like. On the other hand, go to the YMMV page of anything with Vic Mignogna in it and you'll find a Harsher in Hindsight or Funny Aneurysm Moment entry about Weeb Wars. For fuck's sake:

And as of this writing, they didn't even bother to remove this from near the bottom of the page:

It is totally arbitrary.

And since there is no concrete rule on the books, it ultmately comes down to what WarJay et al. FEELS is "hateful."

I also don't necessarily consider a page cut to be a punishment rather than just rule enforcement. They can always just write a review, discuss the work on their troper page, or even attempt to chat about it on the forums.

And if we do reinstate the page, how long before people see it as an invitation to be a lot more volatile and harsh than the "good" haters are being?

You could always just write a blog, lol ;)

Heck, they even took down its entry on the "Eight Deadly Words" trope page.

TvTropes own page on the Eight Deadly Words:
""I don't care what happens to these people."

A phrase coined by Dorothy Jones Heydt in a science-fiction based Usenet group in 1991 to describe an Audience Reaction to a work of fiction where the characters are either so universally bland and unengaging or so unlikable and unsympathetic that the reader simply loses interest in their fate and, by extension, the work as a whole.

Yeah they're completely full of shit. I looked it up and Too Bleak Stopped Caring was originally titled Darkness Induced Audience Apathy, which if the name didn't clue you in was about works that were so grimdark and edgy that you couldn't begin to care about anything in the first place, which does not describe TLOU2 at all. People hate it because it's shit, had an unlikable protagonist and made all the likable characters unlikable. Which is exactly what the eight deadly words apply to.

It's funny because for all intents and purposes WarJay is actually their unpaid jannie since she spends her time answering questions, snitching on ban evaders, and generally being one of those goody-goody tropers that they love so much.

This should be a random_text.txt. Besides, we've "found you" for the better part of six years and one of your own kind joined here to spew random bullshit and try to make us feel bad.

Troper: Celebrating people's death is bad, let's not do that.
Also troper: Celebrates the person's death in the next fucking sentence.
Will these people ever grasp how hypocritical they are being?
No.

In any dispute, having WayJay on your side is an automatic win.

What other forum lets three randos steer policy? Tanta doesn't even have an avatar.

IMO, if you are gonna wish ill on people, you better hit the mark and make sure they fucking deserve it. The word "retard" fits them in every sense of the word and every way. Like my father would say in his accent: These people are not correct (in the head).
