It would probably be best to ask this on Trope Talk Conversations (which includes discussions about the nature of tropes) or specifically Is this an example?.

I would if I could.

Why can't you? If you have a forum suspension, which is the only reason that readily suggests itself, I don't think it's considered kosher to use ATT to circumvent that.

I'm not trying to do that. This place has been used plenty of times for minor questions about tropes, that don't require a full thread. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

Asking the question isn't circumventing the forum; this kind of thing gets asked here all the time.

If you want to know the history, read Edit banned/suspended or send a PM. Asking publicly isn't very polite.

Ya, no particular objection to your posts here but appealing the forum ban may be a better move.

Ok, but that's a side matter (would want to establish a few more months of good behavior first anyway). I just made this thread to ask about the trope.
