Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

Deleted the comment, although we can't restrict him without a full IP ban. IP = 75.72.187.5 for future notes.

Those who have aspergus are way better than those who throw about accusations of trope pages being full of spergs.
- Sigh* The Dragoness, you probably mean well, but let me tell you, as an Aspergers sufferer myself:
Taking pride in one's disability is worse than Misplaced Nationalism. Especially Aspergers.
He was saying that a bizarre amount of attention was being paid to something strange. Which is rather common on a wiki, but still.
