TV Tropes' "New Content Policy"

That sounds like criminal activity to me. If that’s what’s going on, TV Tropes should report it to the FBI and then get a lawyer to bring claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

FYI, for my comments here, I’ve been banned. Yip, because I use the same name here, and he got mad at me.

And people wonder why I think the guy is evil.

You’ve said he’s evil no less than four times in this thread, why wouldn’t he ban you?

Cecil Adams is evil.

Cecil Adams is evil.

Cecil Adams is evil.

Cecil Adams is evil.

Ed Zotti is evil.

Ed Zotti is evil.

Ed Zotti is evil.

Ed Zotti is evil.

? I await my banning.

BigT is actively railing against a policy that TV Tropes has enacted to save its business. Not the community as it currently stands, but the business. As the businessowner, he has a right to ban anyone he sees fit for any reason he sees fit.

So does the SDMB for that matter. The infamous “Don’t be a jerk” rule.

I think he’s talking about being banned on TV Tropes. This is not to say that Cecil and Ed are not evil …

Maybe you got banned for saying “Yip”…

Yippers, skippers, ah thinks that twas the dealio.

But seriously, are you saying a TV tropes maven (Fast Eddie his own bad self?) has been reading this thread, and banned you from his site because you’re criticizing it over here? That is one paranoid, autocratic response.

I’m trying really hard to follow the logic that someone who is trying to remove content about rape, pedophilia, incest, and other un-savory things is evil…

I guess it’s “evil” because he’s only doing it to make some money, right? And making money is always evil!

People have rights to do all sorts of things. However you can still legally be a dick. The community as it stands obviously represent something important to some people. You take someone important away from someone you’re either delusional, or cruel, if you expect them calmly accept it.

And thet right thar is what’s wrong with the entire frickityfrickin’ world, by gum!

Dadburn pesky dick-bein’ varmints…

He’s also tacitly supporting capitulation to those who would employ or threaten of technological attacks to cripple the site.

I think it has something to do with anime fans being intellectually stunted sexual predators.

How do you know BigT wasn’t banned at TV Tropes because, unbeknownst to you, someone else is using the name BigT on another forum somwhere, saying truly offensive, banworthy things?

Maybe you were banned because you are as annoying and lacking in perspective in that community as you are here.

Evil? Really, dude?

:rolleyes:

Sh-yeah.. “evil”. It’s the right word…geez. Don’t you know anything? :rolleyes:

The hierarchy of evil goes:[ul]
[li]Satan[/li][li]Hitler[/li][li]Stalin[/li][li]People who stop BigT from reading kiddie porn, incest porn and tentacle rape porn stuff on their site–because he really enjoys reading that stuff.[/li]
[li]< big gap–everyone below this is much less evil…though…still evil >[/li]
[li]Pol Pot[/li][li]Chairman Mao[/li][li]The bad girl (Misfit?) from the Jem and the Holograms cartoon who made a joke that BigT thought was really, REALLY mean![/li][li]Vlad the Impaler[/li][li]Ghengis Kahn[/li][li]The Cookie Monster because BigT resents the fact that “Cookies are now a Sometimes Treat!” and that’s CENSORSHIP!!!11!!![/li][/ul]

So…I hope that taught you a few things, Myrna…if that IS your real name and you’re not just a shill for FastEddie who’s stalking BigT.

I keep seeing this assertion - “TVTropes is a wretched hive of kiddie porn etc. and that’s why they have to crack down”, but in six years playing around on the site pretty much every day I have never once ever seen any such thing.

Cite?

Even if they deleted it all, the archived version ought to be on Wayback still.

[li]The bad girl (Misfit?) from the Jem and the Holograms cartoon[/li][/QUOTE]

No, the Misfits were the name of the bad girl band on Jem and the Holograms. (Can’t believe she still remembers this stupid shit)

Check the history on the page “Hellevator”. But don’t say I didn’t warn you.

The pages for Lolita and Nightmare Fuel are still up, and Les Yay redirects to Ho Yay.

I see a single deleted reference to a video game where one of the villians is a pedophile, in an article about elevator malfunctions.

Stating that such things as pedophiles exist hardly qualifies as “kiddy porn”.
