Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.

Well, whatever the status of this as an edit war, that's a flagrant twofold violation of the rules for Example Indentation in Trope Lists; not only is a single second-level bullet always wrong where indentation is concerned, but trope entries never get indented at second level below another trope entry for any reason.
Bumping and I added dates for the relevant entries.

The entry's still there. What should I do?

Can an IP check be done between Tropers.MBG and Tropers.MBG 159? I want to make sure they didn't use a sock to get out of edit warring.
Bump
Discord: Waido X 255#1372 If you cant contact me on TV Tropes do it here.
Bumping again.
Also, Tropers.MBG 159 has made a considerable number
of ZC Es recently, and has continued to make them.notifiers have been sent.
It seems like they are trying to improve. IP check gives some shared educational PMs.

What should be done about the problem example in the OP?
Bump?

Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories is famous/infamous among YGO fans for its difficulty and balance issues, but has the benefits of awesome music, an interesting story and characterization, and people who like the challenge said difficulty provides. The game got a sequel, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses, which had easier difficulty and confusing gameplay (you move your cards around on a tiled map with different terrain effects affecting stats, movement range, and such depending on their type) that was more balanced, but had a less complex story and characterization while still being connected to the first game's story. Many of the cards are the same in both games as well.
Circa August 2017 this edit was put on DOR's YMMV page, added by MBG:
"* Surprisingly Improved Sequel: Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories was, to put it kindly, crap. Strategy was rock-stupid, balance was flatly nonexistent, the difficulty was a brick wall conquered only by monotonous grinding, and the gameplay was profoundly unfun. Its only advantages were its somewhat novel story mode, its animations, and capturing some of the feel of Duelist Kingdom. Duelists of the Roses, filling the Spiritual Successor role, features actual balance, a card pool large enough to pursue any number of unique strategies, a reasonable level of difficulty, and actually fun gameplay, while giving two story campaigns, better animations, and one of the best interpretations of the Duelist Kingdom rules in the franchise."
On February 20 I noticed the entry and thought that was unfair to FM fans who genuinely liked the first game, so I changed it to this with the edit reason "Believe it or not, FM's legendary difficulty is a big part of why people like it":
"* Contested Sequel: Some see Forbidden Memories as a better game, while others think this game is superior. They share similar rulesets and cards, and are connected storywise. While some prefer Forbidden Memories' story and difficulty, others prefer Duelists of the Roses' unique gameplay and better card pool."
On May 22 Contested Sequel was deleted and it was put back as this by MBG 159 without an edit reason:
"* Surprisingly Improved Sequel: Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories was, to put it kindly, crap. Strategy was rock-stupid, balance was flatly nonexistent, the difficulty was a brick wall conquered only by monotonous grinding, and the gameplay was profoundly unfun.

I didn't want to edit war, so I'm taking it here. You guys got any advice?
