^^Well, can't back you up on that 'nice people' thing, if you are talking about the hate thread guys. The rest of SA'ers seem all right.

Because they think this place is a unfixable cesspit and given the horrible content from here they've posted on their threads, I can understand why they think that

The ones on the "hate threads" do seem like nice people if slightly hyperbolic. Slightly. If you look at what content they post on there from here, their anger makes perfect sense.

I think the funniest part is they have a TV Tropes emoticon. It's an Aspergers emoticon(a monochrome face) wearing a lampshade with a word balloon that says "rape". [lol] We're that bad. Does anyone know how it started? Like, was This Troper the catalyst for the first thread?

[up] I love how sensitive you come off as, I want to give you a hug. Oh, now I'm creepy. Damn it!

[up][up] Yeah, Tropers are good enough people, but there are a lot of creepers that horrifically overshadow the good guys.

What lola said.

This Troper didn't start their first thread, Troper Tales started both of those (the SA threads and This Troper, obviously).

Well, I know this place is not an 'unfixable cesspit'. I'm not really interested in reading their thread. If someone thinks we have some 'cesspit' to see to, please bring it up.

Plenty of other stuff started the threads but it would take too long to list them.

Asexual yet fapping to everything, yes. [lol] It seems like they see the problem tropers (I won't name names) and extrapolate them.

So no honest issues. Name calling and hyperbole.

Oh cool Eric! grin

I wonder what criticisms they have that are specific? I went into the thread once and it made me sad.

[up]Hm. surprised

They seem like honest issues to me.

I love how the goons called out people who creeped on me. I know it only takes basic decency to be repulsed at grown men hitting on a 15 year old but I respect the people in that thread for that.

[up]Basically,really creepy stuff on this wiki and quite a few embarrassing users that took too long to be banned.

Stuff like us touting ourselves as a literary resource (we don't really consider ourselves as such, do we? we're Just for Fun, I thought) despite not really doing analysis.

Damn it, everyone posted while I was writing. The honest issues are the creepy/rapist/racist/whatever Tropers that make good tropes look bad. And all the sex tropers. Yeah, yeah, objectors are prudes, we're analytic(we're not), yadda yadda yadda.

[up] Part of downplaying the Just For Fun and being more and more Wiki like is part of why I dislike a lot of changes.

"This troper is asexual but otherwise straight."

That's what he meant. Posts like that.

That clearly translates to "I can't get laid so I falsely claim to be asexual to cover up the fact that I'm a dateless loser."

I can name at least five pedophiles on here but I don't want to be "rude."

[up][up] -hugs in a non creepy way- Seriously, you use more emotes then everyone I know put together. I picture you as being extremely emotional. On the internet, that's pretty awesome.

[up] I don't think pedophiles should be bullied if they don't molest anyone and shit, personally. Creeping out over pre teen's jucy asses are totally unacceptable, though.

Yeah lola, as I said before, best not to name names. The folks at SA already do that.
