    The Haruhi Suzumiya page used to be titled Suzumiya Haruhi, presumably because the person who created it was a weeaboo. I took it to Trope Repair Shop, and even in the face of some opposition, the crowner got enough votes to change the title, and Fast Eddie himself did the honors, even while saying that he thought the whole affair accomplished nothing. Given how dictatorial the man can be sometimes, this is downright surreal to me in retrospect.

    I understand clarity and that the wiki is read by newcomers and all that, but I wish they'd stop being smug Big Dogs who don't hesitate to insult those of us who have a different kind of fun.

    That's what I'd have said months ago when I still cared about the wiki.

    ^^ That site makes me angry, and I don't know why.

    ^ I thought about making a Yack Fest thread about it. Maybe I shouldn't?

    Also, lest somebody gets the wrong idea about my previous comment, I do accept those kind of changes, just not the attitude behind them.

    ^ I just associate it with the kind of smug bullshit you see in a political cartoon.

    So I heard that Anihaters and Weeaboos are the most difficult people to work with on the wiki.

    Elfen Lied Example: Although Yuka isn't a Wesley, but a main character (not a side one), the people who absolutely fucking hate her will not stop putting her as one, because of course, they hate her.  They also tend to try and repeat the Narminess of EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE ENTIRE FUCKING SHOW, EVEN DOWN TO LUCY FALLING IN THE WATER into the YMMV page. >:/

    Then comes the wank about Slice of life anime and proper wording on honorifics, the creation of japanese/anime based YKKTWs that only have 3 examples but get launched anyway, and the fact that most of the angry reviews are written in a snide "only retards would watch this" sense rather than "Nobody should watch this show" way.

    Slice of life anime

    = best anime.

    Requires the least amount of suspension of disbelief to enjoy so it can catch a lot of people.

    But I won't get into that.

    I am sick of seeing people haterag/whine and "honorable defend" it. There are other things to discuss and BAWWW about besides Mukokuseki.

    I must say, I think they're kind of pushover about a lot of the threads that come up, like "You think something should change? Alright. -shrug-"

    yea i make potions if ya know what i mean
    never been there. Never intend to be.

    My wiki contributions are natter clearing and making Works Pages. Fuck the actual trope side of it. I realize that sounds stupid, but I'm just not interested in getting into kathul flamewars over something so dumb.

    I should go "repair" some tropes in the trope repair shop with a sockpuppet.

    Not anything banworthy, but since everyone would go "BAWWW TROLL" if I went there as myself, but if I get a semi-courage inspiring sockpuppet like Dynamod to go in there tehy would be all shiiiiiiiiiiit okay
