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.
You can't just say "perchance".

First a brief background. About a month ago, I once again hunt down This Troper using Google-Fu to track them down among wilderness that's moment pages (good news, I think they're gone from Nightmare Fuel/ and Tearjerker/). I sometime leave "Kill This Troper" as edit reason (as in terminate the usage of the term, in silar fashion to "kill a process") when remove it. A strong word, but I'm certain that it isn't rude (especially when removing this troper).
Today, I got rudeness notifier from Tropers/littlemisstfp2 regarding such edit
(a pure self-insert that has nothing to does with the entry) on NightmareFuel.Transformers Cyberverse. As noted, I don't think it's rude and replied as such. But digging a little more on the page's history reaveal two things.
Maybe I'm bias and reading too much into it (their edits are fine otherwise as far as I saw). And maybe the cultural difference make me misjudge the significant of the word "kill" (in that case, please say so). But I think they're acting too defensive.
