TV Tropes Forum - Television Tropes & Idioms

The articles go in the wiki, the trope proposals go in YKTTW, everything is nice, clean and Natter-free. However, there's a problem: You liked natter, you enjoy discussing tropes and works with your fellow tropers, you love adding witty snark to the nearest Twilight or Eragon example... Worry not! for there is a place where you can do all this and much, much more: The Forum

So... What's with this "forum" we keep talking about? Well, for starters, it allows a more fluid conversation between tropers, avoiding Conversation On The Main Page. It also covers a broad spectrum of topics, meaning you can talk about pretty much anything you like. The forum is not, however, completely isolated from the wiki: as of recent, it has taken a vital role in the administration of the site; trope renames, reworkings, and general wiki policies are all discussed in it. But enough gushing, let's have a quick overview:

Subforums:

Wiki & Forums:

Trope Talk
Here we discuss everything regarding tropes: are they good? bad? how to apply them? which are your favourite? and many more trope related discussions.

Sandbox
For all your forum testing needs.

Tech Wishlist
Think the wiki or the forum could use some extra feature? Add your suggestions/requests here.

Wiki Talk
Anything wiki related, be it annoying edit wars, or discussion about policies for examples, tropes, Natter, etc.

Translations
Join the multi-language TV Tropes project! the title is pretty self explanatory.

Trope Repair Shop
This is where trope renames, merges and splits are proposed, discussed, voted on, and decided. Since it deals with topics regarding the wiki, it is more serious than the rest of the forum, and off-topic posting is highly discouraged.

General Behaviour:

The forum is generally easygoing. The tropers posting there are polite and friendly, and they'll probably won't give you any trouble. Conversations on any subforum other than "On-Topic Conversation", tend to switch topics both quickly and frequently, so it's a good idea to read at least the last page of any thread to know what's going on right now.

This is not /b/, so please refrain from making offensive, badly spelled and completely random posts. There is no hierarchy in the forum, no postcount nor join date, and everybody owes everybody the same amount of respect.
