Why the fuck is TV Tropes so obsessed with Animorphs of all things? Why is it the first entry under "literature" on every single fucking trope page? It is the most ludicrously annoying thing imaginable to see this kiddie shit everywhere, especially when it's one of only five entries for "literature".

Also TV Tropes tends to be filled with autistic thirtysomethings, the perfect age to have read that crap as children and become unhealthily attached to it. (See also their obsession with My Little Pony.)

Animorphs is notoriously graphic for an apparent young adult series. But the author flubbed the ending to virtue signal long before it was common.
 
So, if you report an userpage (or any page, really), it automatically generates an "content violations" thread so people can n vote on it.

Turns out that the jannies are retarded enough to consider this an genuine attempt at evading a forum ban.


I love this site, just when you think when things on there couldn't get any worse, it somehow does

Like the others have said, alphabetical listing, most users were probably into it back when it was coming out, author is a tranny ally which makes them cream themselves because that's so valid and not yucky like the big surf n turf meaniehead JK R*wling is, plus it's edgy as fuck and filled with 'deep' themes.
I'm reading the series right now and its actually not bad IMO, I'm about halfway through. Guess it's a usual case of a cringe fanbase giving something neat a bad name. The Hork Bajir backstory and the new kid arc are my favorite parts.

Dude, do you even know It's Walky? That shit was a looking glass to the fan base. Shit was pozzed from the start. They still have a burning hatred for Hotrod, ffs.

To this day, I haven't seen the movie and after going through the character sheet, I'm glad that I didn't.

But in more positive news the guy who falsely reported an completely random userpage got his restrictions lifted

Is it actually any good? Because the trailers aren't doing it any justice and TVT painted it as an sausage fest (like they always do)

No, it's a webcomic. Sorry for the misunderstanding, but the author is a total Transformers sperg of the highest order that even other spergs think he's a weirdo and a faggot. The movie isn't doing anyone favors either, because I would not touch it with a twenty-foot pole.

EDIT: It also doesn't help that the site barely uses sources. That is the one thing that makes it weaker than Wikipedia because the latter actually puts in a modicum of effort to make itself a reliable source for knowledge, but even that is a pitifully low bar. You read a trope, any random trope. Hm, that's interesting, now to check if it's true. What's this? Where's the citation? No citation? What the fuck?

They also put in "Word of God", even though even THAT is dubious because there have been authors on record stating shit otherwise, and the site barely tries to edit or amend the now erroneous Word of God. Greg Weissman saying that Irma was a lesbian in the W.I.T.C.H. animated series barely had any evidence that she was. She was still very much attracted to boys like VMJ and maybe Martin.

I will reveal myself here, I was a brony between 2011 and 2016 or so. I stopped watching the show because Starlight Glimmer took over and I don't care for her at all. After I left the fandom, it was pretty easy to disconnect from all things pony. I guess the fact that I became a fully grown man in the years between instead of a confused teenager had something to do with that.

Anyway the point is, everytime I see bronies on TVT I'm always kind of shocked that they can still muster the energy to be so excited for a mediocre preschooler cartoon that ended 4 years ago. I don't take those entires seriously.

Someone's being homophobic, again!

Oh, it's just Transformers. I can't believe how pozzed the fanbase is getting.

It was inevitable. Bayformers is considered a black mark on the franchise for being masculine popcorn movies with hot girls and soldiers and stuff like that. Bumblebee and Transformers One are nice and safe for all the wokies out there what with their positive messages and left wing political undertones.
