I sent rudeness and natter notifiers. Let's see what happens from here because they haven't received either of those types of notifiers in the past.

You can't just say "perchance".

I'm sorry, but "Kill This Troper" is as hilarious as an edit reason as it would be confusing, so per Edit Reasons and Why You Should Use Them I strongly recommend to be full and say This Troper is not allowed to be used in examples and Nightmare Fuel is not for personal opinions.

Still, on the first issue they're overreacting and on the second they're the one being rude, though they've apologized right after.

^I'm assuming in good faith that it was a grammatical error since the creator of this query isn't a native English speaker, so I zapped the edit reason and made a null edit explaining that This Troper was being removed.

Well, I can see how they might regard that edit reason as a personal attack as it could possibly be read as "kill [this person who wrote this]". Although since you tried explaining it to them, just wait and see how they respond.

I would still suggest that you stop using that phrase. It very much lends itself to uncharitable readings.
