Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup

Added DiffLines:

* ViewerNameConfusion: Nopcsa's name was frequently misspelled as "Nopsca", so much so that it was added to the board's censored words list.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: In Flynn's first pesterlog with Tweak, he mentions the sunglasses-wearing Kurt Castor ('''[[red:obfuscatedBrilliance]]'''), who was at the time slated to appear as a player run by October, but later got replaced due to inactivity. The pesterlog reads quite differently now that the reader has to infer Kurt didn't survive the Reckoning.
-->FH: Oh please, I wouldn’t expect you to go to all the trouble of READING things. You might have to take off the shades for that!\\
FH: Hey! Have you and Bustin and Kurt ever thought about pooling your sunglasses collections and just rotating them weekly??\\
FH: It’d save a lot of money AND you three would get even closer to your dream of all being the exact same person!



* HarsherInHindsight: At first Ender's slacking and trouble with his powers in Triannual comes across as his standard BrilliantButLazy antics. However, the next RP in line was End Game, making it possible his issues in Tri were the early warning signs of his SuperpowerMeltdown.

Dork Age was renamed


* GrowingTheBeard: It took three steps, but it got there. First, when it split away from Pokemon Role Play on the Pokeschool boards around 2002, it allowed for much more complex and mature themes to creep into the works. Secondly, in 2007, after breaking off and forming its own site, the authors stopped focusing so much on the Wangst that had given ORP a short DorkAge, and started instead focusing on moral complexities and the greater implications of a society with Powers running amuck. Finally, around 2012, a bottleneck in activity led to many of the less dedicated authors leaving, with only the most honed and devoted writers remaining. After all this trimming down, the current revival is seeing an average quality level that is absolutely ''staggering'' for online fiction written by a committee.

Requires Word Of God confirmation


* AuthorsSavingThrow:
** Yoshimitsu was panned for having too many powers in the Popularity Poll. One quick streamlining later, and the character is much more popular.
** The revival of Ishkabibble has gone quite far in redeeming TooBleakStoppedCaring; some of the darker scenes have been worked around or cut, and there's a greater focus on humor and lighthearted action to provide a counterpoint to the harsh CrimeFiction background.

* TastesLikeDiabetes: Emily, on two levels - her introduction to the high school had her showing a sickly sweet personality, and she was also handing out personalized cupcakes to each student.

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: The biggest flaw in Ishkabibble's tone; there's three serial killers running around with virtually no redeeming characteristics (until Biscuit gives Lucas a chillingly jovial demeanor), the main characters are morally ambiguous, and the most moral characters in the work (Tsubota, Helen, Alyssa) all had roles in the decimation of various cities and ties to unsavory organizations.
