Non YMMV entry on YMMV page Web Original

Tropers.Orion Pax 09 added this on YMMV.Death Battle:

• Men Are the Expendable Gender: Some viewers have excused the Death Battle team of deliberately skewing the results of matches that pit males against females such as Gaara vs Toph, Tracer vs Scout, and Lara Croft vs Nathan Drake. Intentionally setting up male combatants to lose.

Not only is this trope not YMMV, but it's also a repeat of the "Death Battle is sexist" edits that got a user banned before.

Is there an overlap between that banned user and Tropers.Orion Pax 09?

Deleted it, sent a rudeness notifier. Which user was a problem before? There's no obvious match for any other banned account.

It doesn't seem like it. I was just mentioning the ban.

In case you were wondering, the troper who was actually suspended (my bad) was Tropers.vh1660924. Again, there doesn't seem to be any correlation between the two.
