openArticle about chinese/korean pay to win game Web Original
A few years ago I read an article telling the story of a woman who signed up for a heavily monetized game, the thing is I cannot remember the name of the game but I do remember the rest of its title: Gambling your life away in (game).
In the article, the woman tells the story about how she started as a low level character and once she got lucky by landing the last hit on a high level military dude making her the queen of her realm. After this she got tired of how the game encouraged PVP at every opportunity to see who would spend more money and finally she quit the game.

I am looking for a very specific old youtube video with Tensou Sentai Goseiger (so at least 13 years old at most) that show a montage of the show's mech up to Hyper Gosei Great with only music in the video. I know it probably is deleted long ago since it is that long ago, but I wanted to see if it's still up or not.

resolved Schaffrillas video Web Original
I remember what I think one of Schaffrillas Productions' ranking videos where he says he kind of likes the idea of a spoiled brat character "but on the other hand, he's a spoiled brat".
openOnline video about how using the toilet can kill? Web Original
A video on (as far as I can remember) the children's section of some publishing company like Simon and Schuster. I never actually watched the video in question (I was too scared to as a kid), but I remember that the thumbnail featured a puppet of some sort (I believe it was a chicken, but I'm not entirely sure) and that the video was titled something along the lines of "using the toilet can kill" or "your bathroom can kill you". I was recently reminded of the video's existence and wanted to see if I could find it and finally watch it.
openA piranha plant as a main character Web Original
It is an animation in youtube and with a TV Trope space.
If i remember correctly a Mario Bros animation with a piranha plant who was raised in the mushroom kingdom who later grow up with a design very similar to Petey Piranha but with clothes.
openTwo early 2010s Minecraft series Web Original
This is a bit different from most of these, but i recall two of the first Minecraft series i watched somewhat, and i may me mixing up some details between the two, so i'm combining these into one comment.
I watched was a You Tube series by a family, the son had the channel but his sister and dad were playing with him. I remember them joking about "hat trees" and talking about their mom making food or something, and i remember them building a house. I think this was pre-hunger bars, so likely early 2010s. I watched this in 2016 or so, and when i opened the channel, the featured video was a Minecraft video related to an anime series, maybe a map taking place in a school? The second series i remember was by a guy playing hour+ long episodes on a singleplayer series. I remember the videos having a facecam in the corner. He spawned on an island and had a "trusty diamond hoe", but it later broke. He had a larger house than he thought he needed ((as at that time, most houses were just item storage, furnaces, and a crafting table)), i think he had a mine in his house, and later in the series he boated out to another island to bring a sheep(?) over to his island. I think his channel name was something related to a crocodile/alligator.
That's all i've got at the moment, i'll update this if anything else comes to mind.

openAnime intro recreated with windows xp sounds Web Original
I remember seeing a video of an anime opening recreated with Windows XP sound effects, but I forgot both the name of the anime and the video.
openFlash Talking Fish Web Original
When I was in high school, I took classes in Flash animation (back when Flash was strictly for Web Animation only), and among the material we studied was a little series of animation featuring talking fish - they were stylized to look like somewhat realistic fish, but with floppy mouths, a lot like the kind of stuff you'd find on old sites like JibJab. I remember one such episode was a musical one where the fish are on a plane, and one of the passengers falls in love with the stewardess who handed out bags of peanuts, the chorus from that song has never left my head: "Peanut lady, how do you do? Peanut lady, I think I'm in love with you." I have searched the internet high and low for these Flash fish, and can't find anything. Does anyone remember these?

openVegetable hospital (solved) Web Original
An animated horror short, possibly a music video, on You Tube. About a hospital in which the patients are turned into literal vegetables. I think the main story surrounded a child who discovered this process happening to his grandmother.
Edited by FuzzytheduckopenAnimated horse falling into a pool Web Original
There was this old flash animation from the early 2000s that I accessed from a code printed inside a box of Eggo Waffles (I think).
The video showed an anthropomorphic horse jumping off a high-dive board, making poses in mid-air while saying "sha-bam!", and then crashing into one of those tiny "bucket pools" from slapstick cartoons. The pool, predictably, is destroyed on impact.
This was part of a small series of flash animations that featured the horse and another animal that I don't remember.
Also on that site was the flash game "Qbz".

Edited by MisterToodleooopenLooney Tunes Flash Game? (Solved) Web Original
I remember growing up, I used to play Flash games on the official Looney Tunes website all the time, and I've seen YouTube videos documenting most of the ones I remember, but there's one that I haven't seen in the longest time, nor have I even heard anyone else mention, but I definitely remember it very vaguely. All I can really say about it is that in it, you played as Elmer Fudd and had to stop Daffy from trashing a house. I think you might have had to hit him with a broom or something. Daffy would pop out from different locations before doing his classic laugh (hoo-hoo! hoo-hoo-hoo!) before throwing things into the air (eggs were among them) and Elmer would have to catch them before they hit the ground, or they would break and he would become very angry. Does anyone else remember this game, or is it lost media at this point?
Edited by JankyKongopenVery early internet search engines / 'internet directory' sites? Web Original
Dear Tropers,
We all know Google of course. And Yahoo. Many of us know Infoseek and Excite. Can you please share with me the names (and possibly more info) of VERY early search engines or internet directory sites?
Do not limit yourself to the web (WWW) please. Gopher sites are welcome. And also 'sites' that could be used to search (or 'surf'/access) BBS (Bulletin Board Systems).
(To the TV Tropes moderators: I hope such a broad/general question like this is allowed.)
(EDIT: I replaced 'BB Ss' with BBS as the former was being interpretated as a 'link')

I remember watching a video online a few years back that I cant seem to find. It's about a broadcast incident that caused a picture of a kids meal from a fast food place to be shown for about a month (maybe more, but I remember it being a long time in universe). Near the end of the video, this creature that's all red, stands on it's hind legs, has a head like a dog, legs like a velociraptor, and a long tail walks into frame and takes a bite out of a burger that was on display, only for another one of it to emerge from it before the video cuts away. I think it was covered by somebody who styles their videos like blameitonjorge or Nick Crowley. Any help?
