But there is no reason to remove everything if they just want to check the content. When it is "kill it off, no notification", it comes off as a wanking by Fast Eddie, honestly, and I'm pretty sure it was a large factor of it. Add to that that according to the threads on the subject, there is not a formed committee yet, so I guess FE can be putting the blame on ghosts.
@Keola: it is Fast Eddie's modus operandi. Kill things off unilaterally and then make people beg.

Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?Aww shit.
AWW SHIT.
SHIT FUCK CUMBUBBLE SIN OF A CU--
Well, hopefully this mess will be cleared up soon. I'm a bit worried though: why did they take ALL the fanfic recs off? I'm sure there would have been people willing to volunteer their services to clean up the pages.
At this point I have to ask: How do other less SFW websites stay afloat?
Apocalypse: Dirge Of Swans.Probably part of it is that most less SFW sites just don't have the load that TV Tropes has. This is a highly popular site, after all.
Why don't we put this in a Headline??? ![]()

I sometimes wish this place was a bit more democratic...
Why do you think? If they make the announcement, cries of They Changed It, Now It Sucks! will come flowing through out the forum.
@14 & @15: Thanks for reminding me. Since the wiki headlines are staff only, we should be using Sandbox.Wiki Changes or something similar to announce this.

I guess that makes sense.
Honestly, people will probably still get pretty mad about the changes not being announced.
I just hope that the good fanfics that we found don't get Lost Forever. I had no idea that Fan Fic Recs were such a huge problem!
Do not obey in advance.If I read right it's not that the Fan Fics themselves were problems, but that they could have questionable content Tv Tropes does not wish to associate itself with.

So but I do not know where to post this. Why were ALL the Fanfiction recommendations removed from the site?
