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

I find it a pretty annoying policy myself, but the general policy is for bounced troper pages to be cut with zero exceptions.
No, I don't think its a good idea, and maybe the person had some work that they wanted to save. But I don't make the rules, the mods/admins do.
edit: It's weird that you aren't wiki banned but you are forum banned - they shouldn't have cut the page based off of that...

Since you weren't actually bounced, the mods should be able to restore your troper page.

The idea is that bounced tropers aren't meant to be here. We don't want to keep their page if they're permanently gone.

Except I wasn't banned from editing the wiki and have actually been doing pretty good work.
Yeah, I'm not saying your page should've been cut. I was just explaining why we cut pages for bounced tropers.

I agree that your troper page should be restored if you're not banned from editing. Hopefully a mod sees this and restores your troper page.

I've restored the page.

Thank you.
So I just checked on my troper page at Alliterator and found it was cut due to "Bounced Troper." However, while I was banned from the forum, I haven't been banned from editing TV Tropes and have been doing so for a while, so I have no idea why the Troper page was cut. Nor do I understand why a Troper page would be cut, even if they were "bounced."
