Your mama may have had eyes in the back of her head, but our admin team just can't see everything at once. It takes a village to make sure TVTropes is running the way it should, so when it comes to spotting tech snafus, dreaming up a better digital mousetrap, or just diagnosing plain old asshattery, the quicker you let us know something's up, the quicker we can address it. See a bug? Point to it and we'll squash it. Have idea for a new feature? Post in the Tech Wishlist.
NOTE: Do not post duplicate bug queries, please check existing queries to see if your issue has already been reported and then comment on it.
Thanks for this post, Amonimus. I have said this quite a bit, and I have also helped users fix it by deleting the cookies.
Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Now that itcdr has said it's been hotfixed, I think we should lock this.
Reposting the answer as a question for visibility.
Something went wrong server-side and it's not saving your display settings when you turn them back. Some javascript typo, who knows. There's no known time when this will be fixed, just use this solution and bear with it.
The preferences aren't saving because your cookie flag isn't turning off. If you clear your browser cookies for tvtropes.org, it will reset the preferences. At least in Chrome you can lookup specific cookies for the site called "night-vision" and "show-spoilers", removing them will reset the preferences without logging you out.
The issue will resume if you use the sliders again.
