Remove Examples?: Complaining About People Not Liking The Show

Should we have the examples on Complaining About People Not Liking the Show removed or moved to Troper Tales for the reasons mentioned above? Many of the examples simply look like nothing more than Complaining About Shows You Dont Like (not to mention it would be a magnet for this), and the other complaining tropes don't get examples for the same and similar reasons.

Sooo... that would make this thread Complaining About Complaining About People Not Liking the Show? And this specific post would be Complaining About People Not Liking Complaining About People Not Liking the Show?

Oh yeah i got edit banned trying to solve this issue. So while i work that out (can i get a mod to help me out on the edit banned topic please?), I'm going to have to leave this Up For Grabs.

When I started this trope, it didn't have any examples. I would have objections to removing the examples if they were good, but what's there now doesn't look too good to me. Probably best to leave the subject to Troper Tales.

Yeah, in general, complaints suck. Seconding the examples chop.

Before you do a large chop like that, I recommend waiting for mod approval or more than three people to agree with you, unless one is a mod.

Fast Eddie is an admin from what i know, and Spell Blade, Glowsquid and Prfnoff agreed with me so we actually got both. If the deletion will go as planned and when and if i get unbanned, i'll move some of the good examples to the Troper Tales page.

You moved before getting agreement from a mod. You usually want to wait a few hours to let everyone chime in so it's all nice and official like.

Well, now that we have Fast Eddie's approval can we cut them again?

We'll wait a little longer for a better consensus if necessary so we won't have to deal with any more problems. Now that I'm unbanned I'll probably do it later tonight or tomorrow if there are no objections...unless a mod or someone else wishes to do it.

Fast Eddie isn't just a mod, he's the mod. I'll go ahead and cut it.

Done, check the edit reason to see how a cut is properly done.

Alright then. I'd also recommend a Fanspeak banner for this trope and all the complaining tropes if necessary. I'll move some of the examples to the Troper Tales page. Another question though. Should the Troper Tales page be removed, or are they fine? If they're fine, then mods feel free to lock this.
