Is every Troper with an account supposed to have a page? I do not.

No, they are free to make or not make one.

Thanks to everyone for making this page about me. I thought my Pittsburghmuggle page was enough, but I am so pleased my contributions to the wiki have been so monumental that I get this page dedicated to me. Thank you!

So not to spoil the irritating coyness and all, but who was this person who coined the term "troper"?

My guess would be Aaron Sorkin, but I haven't been around that long.

Well, neither have I and I'm still wondering why I can't find a list of tropers on this website, sort of like those internet forums.

So if a troper is a Vigilante Taxonomist, is it safe to assume that a Troper is a you who Tropes, or could a person who frequently goes on Wiki Walks on TV Tropes and has an obsession with reading em, or maybe even occasionally reads and appreciates the tropes but somehow evades the risk of being addicted, also be considered a troper? Perhaps when you come upon this website and enjoy it, your identity instantly morphs from 'Margaret' to 'Troper'? So does a person have to be a Vigilante Taxonomist or could they just be a mild fan or supporter and student of this Vigilante Taxonomist, to be considered a Troper?
