So, we got a bit off topic over in the TV Tropes Meta Thread
(shocker) and started imagining what a video about TV Tropes in the style of those slander videos (you know the ones) would be like. Anyways, FernandoLemon suggested we make a Yack Fest thread for it so here we are.
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).

Good point, oops.
In general, I do think the reliance on describing tropers from their avatar or gallery is a bit disingenuous due to they don't exactly have to be defined by that (especially if it's imagery they're not familiar with based on being shared from or something they just liked visually to be part of it).
Details from Tropers pages if applicable should have higher priority in describing tropers from my perspective.
