I Think It's Time I Walked Quietly Away from TVTropes
 
Well, the problem may abate in the near term, because it looks like Fast Eddie might honestly be working to fix the situation.  What still has me worried is the original exchange from VictimFallsForRapist TRS:
Fast Eddie Wrote:I've cut all the rape tropes. They were getting us in trouble with google.
Discar Wrote:Would you mind making a new thread somewhere else where we can discuss
the new policy? Even if its locked, a nice big post explaining the
full situation would be wonderful. The entire reason we were doing this
was as a preemptive move to keep google from freaking out.
Fast Eddie Wrote:It didn't work. There is no explanation needed beyond the fact that the
topic is a pain in the ass to keep clean and it endangers the wiki's
revenues. We just won't have articles about rape. Super easy. No big
loss.
Thread Locked
It's all NBD, no big deal man, and by the way I'm locking the thread so I don't have to explain myself in detail.  I can't tell if he's being flippant because he hates the rape tropes, or because he's mad at Google.  Or both.  But communication skills are not his strong point.
Still, let's not get ahead of ourselves.  Let's figure out a way to get the backups, either through the Internet Archive, a database dump request from Fast Eddie and Co., or by mirroring the site.  When we get it, we make it available as a torrent.  If things settle down with Google and go back towards normal, all we've done is make additional offsite backups, which is good for everyone.  If not, we figure out what to do from there.
Edit: Man, I'm starting to feel sorry about hijacking this thread.
Edit 2: And now the content violations thread is locked.
