    He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.
    "Which is kinda retarded...>_>"

    And we love you for it. -thumbs up-
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Well, this is a pleasant conversation to wake up and find.
  • You can change. You can.
    vandro. :D

    INUH: Sarcasm?
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Nope.

    On the subject of Troper Tales, the namespace now redirects to this, which says
    We no longer collect Troper Tales. Discussions about this article are welcome in the associated Article Thread. Just click the Article Thread button. (Coming soon.)
    I like that it doesn't say that said discussion should be -- or even that it should include -- anecdotes.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    That is actually pretty cool.
  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!
    Okay that DOES sound better. Maybe I'm wrong about the whole TT v3 thing.
  • Yeah, this is turning out to be something that would have been really nice to have in the first place, since Discussion pages are so rarely used. I'm interested in seeing how all of this is going to work.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    And I'm going to stop with my pessimism and wait and see how this goes for a few weeks before making a judgement call.
  • To be fair with the pessimist, this did at first seem just like another shallow attempt to rebooting Troper Tales.

    but I'll hold my tongue as well.
  • You can change. You can.
    My main gripe with the thing is that I feel shafted and Eddie's wording didn't help things.

    If this turns out good, I'm fine with it. But when I propose deletion and my proposition is approved on, I want deletion. >:(

    Eddie really does have a tendency to make unexpected decisions and then word the justification in the worst way possible. He needs a PR guy or something.

    Yeah, agreed about the new system. It doesn't sound too bad now.
  • It's too bad we lost and they just did another revamp, huh guys?

    ^Except that's not what's happening. Look at the posts preceding yours.
  • You can change. You can.
    Fairly sure it's a joke, INUH.

    Again.
  • ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    I am okay with this.

    All went according to plan (nope) and it seems everything evened out for me.
  • When in Turkey, ROCK THE FUCK OUT
    Well, now it's confirmed. Vorpy planned this whole thing from the start.
  • Mr. The Edge goes to Washington
    I just hope she doesn't have a Deathnote, our real names, and photographs.
  • You can change. You can.
    Pfft, she probably has the three of 'em.

    Because she's nothing but a little stalker. 
  • Mr. The Edge goes to Washington
    She probably has a girl with Shinigami Eyes that's in love with her and manipulates her to do her bidding.
  • @INUH

    Of course not, these ones are easier to flag and nobody's anonymous. Plus, we just blanked out all of the entries. :D

    We did?

    Aww, sweet we did! Nice!
  • We deleted all of the old ones, so I guess.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Not to mention that anecdotes will just be one thing happening in this subforum, and won't even get their own threads.
  • I kinda find the whole thing hard to get upset about, given that "we have the forums for that!" was one of the repeated arguments used by the pro-deletion side.

    Granted, even if that's something that was said just to shut up the pro-TT people...You can't use it as an argument and then be shocked when someone actually follows through on it.
  • That's basically what I was trying to get across in my initial post.

    ^^^ Most of the other stuff could be done in the discussion pages or in Trope Talk.

    ^^We said that about community building, not posting the tales.
