Because I haven't commented on critics who could help us instead of complaining, I'd like to do so here:
https://kiwifarms.net/threads/tv-tropes-...st-9621996
This guy is whining about two things, both of which I'll explain in brief.
1. Complaining tropers won't allow changes to the Sonichu pages due to the fact Chris-chan has now been arrested for incest with his mother.
As to the arrest thing, yes, it's true, and no, I do NOT want to go into details. It's a horror show, go check out the Kiwi Farms for all the hideous, nightmarish details.
That said, our pages are not locked, like this one:
https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Sonichu
If said complainer would like to waltz over to our pages and update them, so long as they keep it objective and within our manual of style, we would welcome it.
2. Complaining the Channel Awesome stuff is not updated because most of the people behind that turned out controversial.
Again, not surprised TV Tropes isn't doing squat, but again, if said complainer would like to update our stuff, there is absolutely no reason they cannot waltz over to our side of the fence to fix things, pursuant to the rules.
And I can brush off being called a "dunce" (as this guy lumped us in with the TV Tropes), but the only dunce here is the guy who never bothered to check why said pages have not changed: NO ONE BOTHERED TO EDIT THEM TO KEEP THEM CURRENT AND IT'S NOT A PRIORITY FOR MOST CURRENT EDITORS RIGHT NOW.
If said complainer (and I know they read here) would like to fix things instead of complaining and then doing nothing, all constructive efforts would be appreciated. And, since I bothered to do research, apparently they were thrown off TV Tropes for offending the moderation there with edits deemed unapproved by the hive mind, they could always try to see if we are less terrible before writing us off, provided they can accept our rules and manual of style.
Since we got compared to TV Tropes, this how they view updating pages on topic #1:
https://archive.md/e5W2C#selection-1557.0-1573.76
Since we have the Moderation extension, we don't have to lock and damnatio memoriae things, so if our complainer friend would actually like to put some works alongside their faith, they can do so by our rules if they like.
And this is why I bless the Moderation extension, TV Tropes' default response to bad editors is to PRLC things, we can just screen all but the objective and constructive edits and not deal with that:
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?di...mment-6728
Edit: I decided to address what TV Tropes was too cowardly to do: https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Sonichu/Trivia
And VICTIM, really? I've gotten hazed and razzed while I was an active member of the Farms and they still say mean things about tropers because they take a crap on everyone, we at ATT can do a lot better than that and deal with the fact not everyone will love us. Wikipedia gets criticized every day by people who hate them, but they aren't purging articles of critics and drama magnets because they can't handle it, as it would cripple their site remit.
Edit: I stand corrected, Wikipedia is being foolish too:
