All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XVII

Also, seems our deviant friend sent me this via email:

to me

I understand calling me a "troll" of something like Reddit, but when it comes to ATT, You Keep Using That Word. The whole point of me calling myself New XanderMartin98 on ATT was for me to show that it was a website that I was NOT, in fact, trying to be a troll on (I just happen to be quite bad at avoiding coming across as a troll no matter what website I am on, or even what real-life place I am in.

My "rule breaking" came from naive-ness, not an actual desire to break rules; on top of that, the pages that I made about my own works were (overall) decently made and were NOT false information about the fics that they were talking about at all (by the way, you only deleted the pages themselves rather than trying to also delete the fics that they were about, right? Also, the pages themselves ARE at least recoverable using ATT's moderator privileges, right?)

Ultimately, I made pages about my own works for the exact same reason for which I made all of my other ATT edits; to inform ATT's other users about the things that said pages were talking about. If you had actually seen the fics that said pages were talking about, then you would have known how incomplete said pages would have been without their "vulgarity", believe me.

Outside of said pages (as Looney Toons has mentioned), there isn't even anything terribly wrong with my edits outside of the fact that I make too many of them (as for the whole "labeling edits as minor" debate, paying more attention to what you were talking about in that one, you would have seen that I label edits as "minor" when they are small (one-to-two-sentence edits and the like) and generally do not label them as "minor" when they actually are...well, large (the length of huge five-sentence paragraphs and the like).

Oh, and as for you thinking that I'm going to yell at Reddit about how I supposedly think that you "are no better than" the utterly sadistic idiots that the moderators of TV Tropes generally are (widely considered to be)...well, I'm actually a lot more disappointed about that assumption than I am with you, to be honest with you. While I definitely do not approve of what you have just done to your own website, at least it doesn't currently involve...

...oh, wait, now it DOES involve mass-deleting extremely obvious and important actual-pop-culture-related examples of tropes (even including an entire page about one of the most iconic tropes in cartoons) just because you don't like the person that made them. Please stop this immediately (I know for a fact that the non-page-deleting parts of it are very-easily reversible) if you actually do have any actual respect for your own website. If you're going to actually allow me to contact you (unlike the TV Tropes moderators), then you should also have the common sense and human decency that they lack. You are NOT the literal machine that TV Tropes's "system" edit reverter is. I'm not going to rant about this yet, but if you push me far enough with this absolute ridiculous-ness, then I definitely might do so later (just for the record).

And my response was:

Quote:Rant as much as you like, your ban is final, we do not want you back, you have a known history of starting trouble elsewhere, and you were obviously doing what got you kicked out of other places, and you are not welcome to do that on my site because on top of your policy breaking, we also do not accept troublemakers.

So rant, scream, do what you like, this decision is not going to be appealed.

And for the record, I will be publicly posting your comments to my fellow admins so they can see why you just proved why I was right to make the above call.

Please go elsewhere and find somewhere else more willing to accept your shenanigans.
