Hmm...the big thing I remember from August is that, early in the month, Eddie shuffled the ads around on the forums and some people whined. There was even an ad in the first post of each page for a while.

That was where the idea of "donate and get ads turned off" first came up.

I just now realized that those ads were gone. I think The Google Incident is why they aren't at the top post anymore.

Pretty much. Now there's a second ad along the left side, instead.

(Also, the Google ads were quietly re-added to the forums last month.)

Someone, please make a bonus chapter to the liveblog about this asshole; he's amazing.

You mean Antvasima or Ashki/Shrek Dragon? I certainly was intending to add more details on "What he got up to later" when I got to Anti's first request to reedit. As for Ashki... Sure, a deliberate ban-evade is good, but got anything else?

Don't take life too seriously. It's only a temporary situation.

OK, February's definitely going to beat January in the craziness department now.

Were all the cases we were follwing these past two months been in Edit Banned? Or have we branched out to "Banned as were are aware of."

2011 is gonna be a fun year for TV Tropes.

I'm not sure if I'm being sarcastic or not.

Nevermind how new you are, we all have something to tell the newbies of the next generations now. Of course, I talk of the eternally damned PTitles and their banishment to the Hundred Hells Of Doom by our glorious highlord Fast Eddie.

My snarky post was not intended to start a whining fest about Dethroning Moment Of Suck.

As for the large amount of clueless users, perhaps us getting mentioned on a certain Blog has something to do with it...

TV Tropes was linked to on a Blog about the latest Penny Arcade debacle, and some of the people who showed up after following that link were not the brightest.

I noticed that there is a thread with the word "dickwolves" in the title, but had no idea what it was about.

Should have stayed that way.

Favorite line?

Rape survivors need allies (like me)

Rape victims need support, yes. Knee-jerk patronizing support? Not so much.

Did the thing with Ashki get deleted? I went to sleep.
