Discuss TV Tropes itself, such as observations you've made about the site/forum/wiki.
NOTE: Keep it civil; try not to get into any Flame Bait-y territory, per the forum rules
(in particular, drama importation and popcorn posting are not allowed, and this thread is for discussion about the site and not the users). In addition, while discussing the Edit Banned thread is not prohibited on its own, discussing and/or alluding to specific ban/suspension cases is not permitted.
One thing I've noticed is that for all how the page for They Might Be Giants claims them to be the unofficial official band of this wiki, there's relatively few people on this site who seem to ever reference them.

Come on! Let's bless them all until we get fershnickered!Speaking of usernames: mine just comes from the fact that I like the Kirby games. The 13 comes from a part of my birthday (I won't specify).
Mine is the reverse of the Sentinels of the Multiverse character Setback.

Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallAs I've mentioned before, there was a long period where all of my usernames were drawn from some sci-fi comics I worked on, and specifically the language of an alien species known as the qrtxians who were notable for among other things not using vowels. (The Character Development Threads in Writer's Block - which I really ought to get back into, BTW - could tell you more about them.) I figured it'd be a good way to make absolutely sure my usernames were distinctive and wouldn't already be taken.
Of course, since then I've basically abandoned doing that because they're too distinctive and I hate having to force people to spell them. So technically I suppose I'm also in the subgroup of tropers here who consider their username The Artifact.

TBH, while your nickname confused me initially I've now just come to accept it and I've stopped questioning it long ago. But I guess that's true for everyone here.

Come on! Let's bless them all until we get fershnickered!My internet is some spin-off of when I called myself "The Midnight Rider", because I felt like I needed some countdown video maker alias and I enjoy the Allman Brothers song of the same name. Then I felt like making it sound like "ayyyyyy, it's Midnight/Midnite". So there's that.
Self-serious autistic trans gal who loves rock/metal and animation with all her heart. (she/her)I'm not explaining my internet username because I already have in the Origin of Username
thread on this very sub-forum
.
My nickname is a combination of a Red Dwarf reference (Holo) and a Pokémon reference (Mew 151). Sometimes call myself Blue Mew 151 though.
My username is a reference to this Animal Crossing character
and I first used this username on a now-defunct Animal Crossing message board in 2003, only to find myself using it on other sites and never really stopping. File it under one of the multiple cases of "I came up with this username when I was young" because I was 13 at the time.
My favorite Animal Crossing character is actually Bob
, anyway; Bob has been in my TV Tropes avatar in the past, but Gaston hasn't (and my avatar is currently the Sundown Kid from Live A Live).

Most of us have explained our usernames on multiple occasions, lol, it's just fun to discuss our personal, outdated reasons.
My username came from when I inputted my real name in the Wu-Tang Name Generator, with some modifications. I thought it sounded cool and had a nice ring to it.

SING TO ME, LEND ME THE SONG OF BLASPHEMYSeems like we've been having some gender identity related editing problems recently, specifically in regards to Guilty Gear.
Read Pokemon Ultimate Emerald
You're not alone in thinking that. So far, we had gender identity debates for...
And that's all I currently know. I really hope the Prized Isshin Blade doesn't join that trend either because there's been mild confusion among Genshin fans over whether they should be referred to as He/Him or "It" due to both pronouns being used in Kazuha's Story Quest.

Speaking of, you can tell an entry is old when it uses he/she instead of they for a PC with customizable gender.
Read Pokemon Ultimate EmeraldWell we have a thread
now specifically to discuss the mentioned characters.
