^ They're shutting down everything remotely related to porn now.
TvTropes: where nobody acts except to overreact.
Also beat Matador in SMT Nocturne on my first attempt. After I heard horror stories about how hard that fight is, too. :<
I would make the "getting rid of cockroaches with an nuclear weapon" comparison, but that would be an insult to cockroaches.
???
Unless Slow Edward wants to enrage half of his userbase, I'm sure they'll get restored once this whole shitstorm is cleared up.
Would posting a summary of TVT's shitstorm cross the line into drama-importing territory?
It felt weird typing that, but, the topic is already here so...
Oh, don't worry. I don't take anybody who talks about TV Tropes in any form or fashion seriously anymore. Whether they actually are serious or not.
This feels like a cynicism fest down here. How dull.
Somehow, the fact that these two sentences are adjacent to each other is most amusing.
Also, the pages were removed temporarily while they were edited in the Sandbox. Still dumb, if only because they are not tackling the issue and instead taking it on on relatively clean pages.
Shiiiiit, my computer might die at any moment soon. There's weird noises, random shutting down and all that jazz.
Nah, it's fine, it's just been possessed.
Matador's difficulty stems from him coming out of fucking nowhere. If you're expecting him, he's not that bad.
Yesssssssss...
nooooooooo....
Well, there goes any remaining faith I had in TVT. Oh well.
One of my mother's fish died, and the others seem to have whatever killed it, too. Hopefully I'm diagnosing them correctly (gill flukes).
I guessed from the whole "flickering wildly" thing. Things don't act like that in SMT unless you're about to be attacked!
So, Comrade Stalin draws yuri pictures. Certainly never expected to learn something like this.
On a entirely related note, the weird names, some Japanese artist give themselves and their circles, never fails to amuse me.
That's pretty much the impression I got from it.
But while I'd love to keep playing the game for more Yuri Lowenthal, it's a NIS game so it's not actually, like... fun.*
*Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure was actually pretty fun, but other than that I didn't really like any of their games I've played.
Keep in mind folks, cutting Fate/Stay Night's page, while dumb on a policy level, is mostly harmless on a practical level. The people who will miss the page most are already fans of the works and can fall back on some of the other many fan projects to cover F/S N. And it won't dent it's appeal to new fans much, since F/S N has a dedicated fanbase going for it to keep dragging new folks into the headache that is the Nasuverse.
Nitpick time. It's not that Superman is vulnerable to magic in the sense that he is to kryptonite. It is that his defenses don't shield him against magic(except when they do) so he is just as likely to get hit by a curse and Green Arrow is.
The computer is fine, luckily. It was just full of dust.
Wait, why did the TVT page on FSN get cut?
Separate question: Why did the TVT page on KnJ get cut?
F/SN is based on a hentai game and Eddie cut everything porn-related.
Kojika sexualizes children, which is against the rules as of very recently. Or something.
I dunno, I read like one page of that TVTropes thread.
Answer to both: War on creepiness.
Of course, Fast Eddie, being as subtle as ever, cut the page for FSN because some fuckwit put it in the Hentai folder.
Someone complained about Naughty Tentacles to Google AdSense, and they pulled their advertising from the site.
FE has decided that the wiki needs some standards, and he has chosen to do so by unceremoniously purging the site of pages considered creep-bait.
That's the explanation for KnJ. I don't why the fuck FSN got cut.
^ and ^^: NINJERS
^^^They also cut the page for Lolita by Vladmir Nabakov for similar reasons, though that has a greater chance of being revived due to its literary importance.
To clarify a few things, the removal of KnJ and Lolita (and Blackbird and anything about sex with a <16 year old, although Black Bird might've been due to being given false information) is not because of AdSense, it's just that the incident made him look into things further and he found these things out. He would've kept these cut even if Google had told him they don't mind.
Anyhow, it was decided that a council would be made that will review each of these cases and whatever comes up. Last I checked, nothing specific was decided yet.
That whole event is another example of Fast Eddie being hard to work with. The other tropers spent dozens of pages trying to figure out just what new standards Fast Eddie was working with, and his own posts only muddled the issue (mentioning standards that would exclude from the wiki works he said wouldn't be excluded, or some that don't exclude the above works, etc).
Edit: It's never too late to fix spelling and grammar.
