This needs to be renamed bad.

The reason it was locked was cause people used it as a Take That! at the mods for our anti natter policies and such. But pot holes of that kind are still flying high. This needs to be stopped.

Maybe rename it to Professorial Gaming Is Very Strict so that people cant misuse it. Possibly let examples back in but probably not. And one support this?

"Stop Having Fun" Guys found in: 582 articles, excluding discussions.

This title has brought 29,787 people to the wiki from non-search engine links since 20th FEB '09.

You're going to have to show this is being horribly horribly misused in a wiki context for a rename argument to carry any weight.

Also, it's not strictly about pro gaming. "Stop Having Fun" Guys and Scrubs are effectively the same people, except one has a more developed skillset than the other.

It was mentioned that it kept being thrown around to complain about what mods did here. That certainly is misuse.

The trope is strictly about gaming, so perhaps it should be renamed to be about gamers.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

I don't think it needs a rename, but it could likely use some clean up. If you see wrong examples, delete them, the page description was pretty clear(unless its been changed, in which case change it back)
