Saint Drogo posted:Serious question now: have Fast Eddie and the gang ever made a concerted effort to clean up loathsome poo poo on their site that wasn't just an obvious response to those nasty goons laughing at them? Like, at all? I didn't follow the first two threads but I kind of doubt it. Fetish Fuel and Troper Tales would still be around if it wasn't for these threads and CrazyGoggs video, wouldn't they? If I remember correctly he's gotten rid of a few pages like, I Am Not Making This Up and So Yeah which sparked a large backlash in the community. Some members accused him of overreacting and getting rid of 'fun' articles. There was a lot of complaining that TV Tropes would end up like Wikipedia. I also believe he tried to clean up the mess that is Nightmare Fuel but failed miserably.

Oh god Yeah Bro just handed me the motherload. I was gonna do brilliant but lazy but that can loving wait because I have the archive to the creepiest troper tales ever.Troper Tales: BROTHER SISTER INCEST posted:This troper had a thing for his sister for a while, and even tried approaching her about it, but was (gently and without further consequence, amazingly enough!) turned down. He turned to his writings as an outlet, making a sister character for his blatant author-insertion character and pairing them off. It didn't make him feel any better, but he just happened to eventually grow up and get over it with time anyway. (He would still be totally up for that, but the fact that it's not going to happen happen doesn't haunt him, at least.) Those two characters have come quite a long way since then, becoming rather well-developed now despite their less-than-noble origins. Their stories are surprisingly popular—who knew Brother Sister Incest was such a popular theme in the Furry Fandom?—so it ultimately worked out. As a bizarre epilogue, his mother just read those stories (!!!) but seems to have somehow missed the subtext. quote:I recently heard from a friend (who I know to be very trustworthy) that two brothers I went to elementary school with were a product of brother sister incest. Now, I don't know where he heard it from, so it might not be true...but it would explain why one of them is retarded and the other one has deformed hands... quote:This troper has an androgynous brother, who often took female roles for his theatre club (due to lack of female members). He was good at what he did, so much so that this troper often forgot that the pretty girl on stage was his brother and not someone to give a third arm salute to. For some inane reason that this troper cannot fathom, he asked his brother to be his date for the senior prom. quote:This 19 year-old troper and his 15 year-old sister are well... kinda more than siblings. I KNOW THIS WAS CUT IN 2009 BUT THIS IS THE TVTROPES USERBASE IN ACTION!! quote:This Troper has long been very confused about her younger-but-more-mature-and-older-looking brother. She hates him. She hates him with a fiery passionate resentment that stems not only from that fact that he is far more attractive than her and a thousand times better at school and what their parents term 'real life', also from the fact she's been having wet dreams about him since he was tall enough to physically overshadow her. Plus she always seems to pick up that type when she feels like a guy - passes for older, but barely legal. She really, really hates that boy. quote:This troper has an older sister with a perhaps above average drive who on several occasions when they were younger initiated a few things (but not THAT far). This troper didn't resist though, and once their mother walked in on them and they both denied it. Unfortunately, male anatomy doesn't permit that sort of denial. Oh well. To his sister's credit, she made a point of regretting it when it happened earlier on which later turned into simply pretending it didn't happen but being clearly ashamed of it. But still, not cool. quote:This troper and his brother sometimes are very touchy...Sometimes, we have to share the bed, and well...It's weird, but I can't say I'm totally disagree...

While we're on the topic of FE attempting to "clean up" TVT: wasn't there a lot of backlash when he locked the "Small Name Big Ego" page? I remember a lot of people got pissy about that and brought up the "WE'RE NOT WIKIPEDIA THESE PEOPLE DESERVE TO BE RIDICULED BY US TROPERS  " argument.

All attempts, collective and individual, to "clean up" the TVTropes wiki, have failed miserably because it's an impossible task to improve a wiki where, as fast as you edit out the crap, some idiot turns up to write some new crap. It ties in with "No Such Thing As Notability" and with the type of person attracted to the site by the weak moderation and the opportunity to obsess about fannish stuff. Why do these dickholes write all this bullshit? Because TVTropes is run on principles that encourage the writing of bullshit and has a big neon sign on top saying "Dickholes Welcome." /\/\/\ Troper Tales posted:There are no therapists that can help with this. No poo poo, son. Have you considered the honourable way out?

Really, at this point Fast Eddie should probably either shut down TV Tropes or at least sever ties with it. He'll be happier and able to relax in the Bahamas and join a website that isn't full of terrible people and that he doesn't have to moderate even though he hates it (good grief that's a lot), and it'd force the terrible people of its userbase to head elsewhere and either get better or get flamed off the Internet (or make their own TVT, but where all the terrible stuff is not legally connected to old Ahab). Also, I just realized that at least one of those Troper Tales admitted to statutory surprise sex of his little sister. That's just... Why did it take them so long to do anything about that part of the site?

And once again I have to point out that this was a huge page that was on the site for loving ages with nobody lifting a finger, and that literally the only reason Fast Eddie felt the need to finally take action was because Something Awful started mocking it. Yeah, goons are totally the bad guys!

You know how in all the Troper Tales for those weird spergy tropes like "Genius Bruiser" or whatever, people would post all of these really obviously made-up stories about themselves? I'm sure a significant proportion of these horrible sexual tales must be completely fabricated by people that want to fit in to this weirdo subculture because it will help them better fantasize about incest and unbirthing and I can't even finish that line of thought.I'm hoping for that, anyway. There are low-level weirdos that want to fit in with the high-level "have actualized their surprise sex fetishes" weirdos by making up similarly horrible tales.

So. New thread. The OP mentions surprise sex murder porn webcomic pages. The people who didn't keep up probably want to see a few exemples of fiction that tropers enjoy and endorse. Let me see. Ero-guro-nansensu webcomic? yupyupypup. surprise sex comic with its character page. Up. A BDSM pornographic comic franchise centered around rough BDSM play, the beating and surprise sex of women. Up. Furry porn webcomic. Up. Bleedman classic. Up. Bleedman classic. Also up. Let's what else is around. Mind control surprise sex archive? Ya. "Impregnated then eaten alive from the inside out by Weedle." Yes. Trope Pantheons: still up.

QuoProQuid posted:Yes, Signed, there are no significant problems that arise from incest. Thank you for backing up your statements with scientific studies. Incest is EXACTLY like LGBT rights. Well, of course there's no problems associated with inbreeding, just ask our old pal King Charles II of Spain! Here's his family  And this had absolutely no ill effect on him, of course!  Wikipedia posted:Charles II's genome was actually more homozygous than that of an average child whose parents are siblings. He was born physically and mentally disabled, and disfigured. Possibly through affliction with mandibular prognathism, he was unable to chew. His tongue was so large that his speech could barely be understood, and he frequently drooled...Not having learned to speak until the age of four nor to walk until eight, Charles was treated as virtually an infant until he was ten years old.

While just the names of those are disturbing enough that I really don't really want to look at the links, I wouldn't say that just having pages means that TV Tropes endorse those things.

SIGSEGV posted:Mind control surprise sex archive? Ya. What weirds me out with this is that, unlike the other stuff in this list, this is a TVT page that isn't even about a work of fiction. It's about an archive and applies things like "Color Coded For Your Convenience" (supposedly the trope about giving different characters distinct color themes to make them easy to tell apart) to the archive literally color-coding its entries by type. Or "Het Is Ew: Averted" for the archive having more hetero porn than same-sex porn. They are trying to apply narrative trope labels to non-narrative web-page structure. I don't even care what kind of porn they're into, it's the fact that they're literally trying to apply tropes to a filing system that makes me cringe.

Without even reading it (I'm very familiar with Angel Corps. already, I don't care to know more), the first page he linked is at least twice as long as the page for They Live. John Carpenters Sci-Fi/Horror masterpiece requires less attention and less love than a porn comic about killing women. Think about that.

Destroy all Tropersquote:And therein lies one of the problems with the story. All it's emotional power comes from its portrayal of Derpy as the perfect woobie: she suffers so beautifully. Yet some may find this emotionally manipulative on some level, because the story also denies Derpy any agency. She is totally incapable of understanding what is happening to her or that her mother is horribly abusing her. She simply suffers. ...

I'm to the right but dress properly and am not a pedophile, misogynist or surprise sex apologist. Let's accept the fact that a person can be terrible regardless of where they fall on the political spectrum (but if a person is a troper, they're always terrible.)

That first guro comic-- the one that features women being dismembered and their severed heads used as sex toys --used to have notes on its page pointing out that some people might find it offensive and that it was morally questionable. These comments were removed. There's also quotes like: quote:Nevertheless, the comic is pretty much a compilation of Dave's best qualities, and shows some impressive backgrounds aside from his well-known top-notch quality in drawing the characters . quote:Bittersweet Ending - Your Mileage May Vary since the sole purpose of the comics is to send these characters to death as you wish by commissioning. Naturally, your feelings toward their deaths may go from depression to lust. quote:No Dead Body Poops - Played for the sake of the comics, according to Dave. However, in the majority of the deaths, they eventually let some yellow juice come out.

The other day I was talking with somebody about how the wiki aims to be family friendly, and that efforts are being made to clean up the dark filthy corners of the wiki. I really want to believe him, but after looking through some of the stuff shared in this thread today I simply can't. Here is the alleged "family friendly" policy by the way. TV Tropes posted:We shoot for 'family friendly' at TV Tropes. Totally not the racy literature. Totally not the racy literature at all. (By the way, the girl in the index picture is 14-15 years old, and I know that from browsing the characters index for that series on tvtropes itself.)

I'll be fair and remind you all that the incest troper tales were cut sometime between 2009 and 2010. But then I'll ruin that by mentioning that TVTropes was created in like 2004 or some poo poo, plus I'm pretty sure poo poo like that was only taken down to keep money coming in as opposed to any real moral stance. quote:(By the way, the girl in the index picture is 14-15 years old, and I know that from browsing the characters index for that series on tvtropes itself.)
