There are entirely too many examples to name specifically but TVT users have a serious problem with linking to pages that don't exist anymore. YouTube comments, defunct forums, dead blogs, websites no one uses. It's like they don't know what an archive is.

When I want to add something, I try to use imgur for images since I know that site will exist for at least 3 more years.

A random woman 4x stronger than the next woman would absolutely get ragdolled and tossed onto the roof by a vampire 2x as strong as a random man lol. Honestly I think a female slayer would still have difficulties with most random men.

You can't make sense of a set of powers that were always inconsistent. I say this because time and time again, me and a friend have bumped into tropers who kept coming up with all sorts of inane shit about Buffy's powers, such as one time when I pointed out how someone as strong as Buffy wouldn't be tied to a chair with flimsy ropes or have issues pushing open a fucking door and needing a man to open for her, or how the show claims she has enhanced senses but even regular humans can sneak up on her, like it happened in the actual show so many times, but I've seen tropers excuse that with how "her powers are tied to her femininity", even though that doesn't make a lick of sense because the writing is so convoluted and arbitrary about how Slayer powers work.

These losers cope so much about their favorite show, they'll go as far as claim Buffy introduced power levels into the West (lol), even though everyone and their grandma learned about power levels through Dragon Ball.

Found this on their writing guide for action films.

And from their guide on action girls.

Seems to reflect why they consider a lot of older media that featured attractive action heroines to be, at best in their words, fair for their day.

Does anyone really follow these kinds of guides? Creative writing can be difficult but if I was going to seek any help it would be with the process of creating a story, like how to pace myself while writing. Are they looking for someone else to write the story for them because they might have wrongthink?

Even funnier is that this is from a mediocre 2000s movie for little girls :story:

Yes, let's pretend there's faggy shit in this other mediocre 2000s movie for little girls!

WHY IS THERE SO MUCH OF THIS SHIT IN THE PAGES FOR OLD BARBIE MOVIES?

The "children's show" is Steven Universe, because of course.

What is with these people? Any time there is a same-sex relationship where they spend a lot of time together, care about each other, and have each other's back, that means they're gay? Have these people never heard of friendship before? Does there always have to be some sexual or romantic element to every relationship? It's crazy.

An entire page of tropes they refuse to add because they're "Too complainy".

I remember one user TheMayorOfSimpleton (otherwise named after a great XTC song) pretty much acted like he owned the place and made a page that was essentially (um yikes these pages are filled with complaining) instead of just fixing the fucking page yourself if you have a problem with it. He ended up becoming a mod because of this.

I hate it when users backseat mod like that.

Backseats mods are the lowest form of life.

Surprisingly TV tropes did not delete this page (yet). Could TV Tropes be healing?

Imagine even the racists at TV Tropes trying to erase Fred Williamson, famous for such iconic roles as Dr. Oliver "Spearchucker" Jones in M*A*S*H and no fewer than three films with "nigger" in the title, as well as also appearing in From Dusk Till Dawn and the original The Inglorious Bastards. And Soul Train.

They'd have to do a whole lot of racial erasure to erase this particular dude. This particularly awesome Boss Nigger.

Fred "The Hammer" Williamson, in an interview with Adam Film World magazine, was once asked about his feelings concerning oral sex. He declared, "I fuck too good to eat pussy."
