I don't understand why tropers always think that something is a reference. As if things cannot be similar but unrelated.

Here's one small example from the Resident Evil 8 character page. They literally think that Dimitrescu is a reference to Darkstalkers. That's a big reach if I've seen one.

I mean if you really wanted to say that you could've at least put it in the YMMV page.
Darkstalkers fans be losing their mind since the last game.

Really stretching the goalposts, aren't you TVT?
 
So, it's no secret that the mods actually weigh the number of warning notifications you get from the narcs against you when they ban someone. But is this an reliable metric to use a dozen or so warnings on someone who's been on the site for several years?
TVT has, knowingly or unknowingly, become a hugbox for middle-class shut-ins with no life experience and a dozen plushies on their bed. They're privileged and they won't admit it.

Running to the teacher for help is a symptom of a larger problem. It reinforces their worst instincts, and the "NTs" have fled in droves.
 
Lol I just noticed how they mention furries scalies on the LGBT Fanbase page for animated films.



Neither group is considered an inherent part of the LGBT community. But I guess they are now.
Don't know if this is old news to some but the LGBT community has a tendency to claim things as their own. Instead of X topic being within that spectrum it seems that the moment members of the LGBT crowd like something, they will rush to assimilate it. It's both selfish and moronic since it just further exposes their "them vs us" mentality.
I have never heard of a straight furry. I'm pretty sure all of them are at least bisexual or otherwise open to having sex with a dude wearing a fursuit of a fox or whatever with tits.
Eh, they are a rare breed and whatever smut I've seen generally keep it lowkey, think of it as the same principal as Niggers vs Black people with the Furries being Niggers.

Although, to be fair, this guy was seething over Family Guy.
I've seen a lot of bad info and grammar errors on TVT but it seems like it's the same ol' "Rules for me and not for thee". It's pretty clear that they are playing favorites and people on TVT are expected to take the mods passive aggressive behavior for any minor infraction be it for legitimate reasons or not. It would be fine if they actually did it to anyone being a dumbass but being like this to everyone is one of the best ways to make lots of enemies.
 
So, I've been going through the character pages for Fire Emblem: Three Houses and it turns out that they kind of obsessed with who has largest bra size amongst the cast. (The Golden Deer has the most amount of cringe.)

Well, he ain't innocent.

To be fair, that person was referring to the fighting games, where her idle animation looks like this:

(Damn gif may or may not work with the Farms for some reason. That's why I linked it.)

And her portraits look like:

Still odd of them to announce which characters appeal to their fetishes rather than jacking off in private like most people do. Then again, if they were like most people, they wouldn't be TV Tropers.

At one point they cleared this kind of fetishistic crap (mostly) off the site. I see they've let the perverts back though, or at least are letting them openly perv out.
 
Oh, FFS. Go jack off to hentai like a normal person.
Well, it's related to an old datamining project where people found out the bust sizes, among other things. Naturally, the internet was obsessing over it, for a time and TVT either documented it or used it as an excuse to state the unmentionables.

Nah, the boob tropes only had the bra size chart cut. Possibly because it included flat chested women, but who knows?

Speaking of tropers always thinking something is a reference, there's also this:

To this person's credit, at least it's on the YMMV page.
 
From E;R's trope page.

E;R talks about how much of a piece of shit John "Children can consent to sex" Money was and how Rebecca Sugar shamelessly promoted his pseudo-scientific gender theory and here's tropers thinking "HE'S SHOEHORNING A TRANSPHOBIC TALKING POINT TO ATTACK STEVEN UNIVERSE AND REBECCA SUGAR!!!!!"
TvTropes never changes.
It's rather funny that on some pages you get some morons who sound like they're straight out of resetera while there exists a trope page for anarcho-tyranny (and yes, it directly references Sam Francis) and a laudatory Web Video page for Razorfist. Does TVtropes have both a left and right wing echo chamber?
Who wants to see Fighteer arguing over economics and losing it? (That thead is retarded, btw)

And yes, he apologized.
Imagine losing an argument about economics to a communist. Being an Obama neolib prevents him from using the Uno Reverse card and pointing out that modern "capitalism" is actually a state-managed economy and therefore these excesses are the fault of state power, which makes things harder. But he doesn't even bother attacking the labour theory of value or other fanciful notions which their arguments rest on (like that one guy who thinks workers are "exploited" if they don't earn the same hourly rate as their managers). He just strawmans their position and says its bad!

There was an active Tea Party presence, but Fighteer purged them, I know they cut most, if not all, of the pages related to Gamergate for being "drama-magnets." What you're seeing is probably an artifact of the Obama years.
 
Is this a bit? Is this real? You couldn't write this shit.
Well, Chris was successful in the sense that he became the laughingstock of the internet.

...But then again, he genuinely drinks his own kool-aid, like TVT does, at times.
