Hoooooly poo poo, this is what I get for assuming not-the-worst about this guy. I mean, holy poo poo: what the gently caress posted:There was a conspiracy to bring down Dozerfleet, by taking out its founder. A conspiracy that appeared to be two-fold, and one that had no issue at all with getting nasty. As the summer of character assassination continued, he grew increasingly distressed by it. The school, on top of everything else it had allowed to happen, ordered mandatory counseling. Through it all, all they did was reinforce his desire to see his tormenters pay for what they'd done - for what they were continuing to. ... also, "Bumphrob?" e:f,b nearly exactly -- but seriously, holy poo poo!

 I was all set to give him the benefit of the doubt on the hairdresser thing as well, like he was just doing a lovely ripoff of Sweeney Todd to go along with his lovely ripoffs of everything else. But no, of course everything he writes is a disturbing psychodrama where he can play out his sex, revenge, and revenge-sex fantasies.He is literally a slightly more functional Chris-Chan except with an offbrand Spider-Man instead of a Sonic recolour.

A fleet of bulldozers sounds like a good symbol of the workers uniting. I wish it was Gozerfleet. Even that would be less creepy.

Hate to change gears from Dozerfleet for a second as...well, he is clearly the fount that keeps on founting, but I have a dilemma. I'm a (very) minor internet personality who's had a page on TV Tropes for a long time, created and updated by weird fanboys, and recently, I've just had enough of it and the drama and the weirdos. I'm a person who creates internet content, I'm not a TV show or a videogame, and I'm about finished with people bitching about every little thing I say and do, even personal details, on this crappy site. What's the quickest way, do you think, to get it removed? Is there some mod I ask about it, or with how poorly TV Tropes is designed, can I just find a way to rip it out myself? tl;dr How do you eradicate a TV Tropes page that doesn't need to exist?

What's the nature of your e-fame? They generally ignore creators asking for a page about their work be deleted, but trope pages aren't supposed to be about someone's personal life. It happens all the time because most of the userbase ignore those sort of rules but if you make a thread in Trope Repair Shop or Wiki Talk you might find someone who'll listen to you.

Considering that tropers read this thread, it could go one of two ways: 1. They purge you from the wiki for speaking bad of them. 2. They add a little note about how you hate TVTropes and hurt their feelings to your page.

I remember there being a TvTropes page for a fanfic that had been deleted and was totally unavailable online in any form. The author themselves asked it to be removed because it no longer existed and a TvTropes admin shot them down.

As far as I know he only reason they ever delete pages is if they are in some way related to pedophilia, so you're out of luck trying to get off the site.

Sounds like the kiss of death to me. No thanks, the fallout drama would be completely exhausting.  Also, gleaning from your responses that just asking to have it taken down because I am not an actual public figure and did not ask to have a public forum where everything I do not even related to my work is scrutinized is out of the question. Lovely. Anything else can be done?

Jay O is Jesu Otaku, an anime reviewer (by the way Jay O, I really liked your Myazaki month stuff). Tropers have an unhealthy obsession with anyone affiliated with Channel Awesome or That Guy With The Glasses, either in past or present form. I can understand why you'd want to get rid of pages sperging out about stuff that happened in your videos. I've seen that page, and the poo poo under their YMMV tab is loving obnoxious. In any case, the paranoid tropers lurking around reading this forum will have a poo poo hemorrhage if somebody ever pointed out that *gasp* their creeping on an internet personality isn't appreciated by said person! Why, they made that whole page about a person! Why do they hate them? Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Nov 12, 2013 |

That'd be one thing, but they're sperging about a lot of stuff that's not in my videos, they just stalk every detail about me across the internet, through social media, etc., which as you can imagine is creepy and tiresome as hell. I don't visit the site on my own, but every time people tweet me about some weird slander that goes up there, I pop by and take it down. Sick of doing it. Exhausted by lovely internet drama. So I'd like to eradicate the page or make it unusable, etc., if I can't just ask to take it down.

To be honest, I don't know how you'd manage to get it removed. I've read Encyclopedia Dramatica's article on TvTropes, and I'm pretty sure they had recorded at least one instance where a person had asked for a page about them to be removed, only to be met by tropers flipping them off and telling them to gently caress off. No Such Thing As Notability is a loving curse

Channel Awesome is just a magnet for nerd drama in general, I guess. I tried saying I liked one set of reviews on another site and twenty people called me an idiot because the person who did those said something that got someone else in trouble one time. So considering that crossed with TV Tropes, yeah, there's probably no way you could hope to get it removed. Maybe try a different tack, and request to have it locked? Then you can satisfy tropers' inherent need for categorization while keeping people from actively trying to stalk you.

Thing is, if the page is suddenly deleted or stripped down, then the tropers freak out over the sudden change. Then they cry to the moderators, who will probably restore the page and/or ban the person responsible for the edit. And then defend their right to have the page, as if stalking a person online was socially acceptable.

Speaking of things made by Goons, I wonder how TVT feels about the podcast Welcome to Night Vale? http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale That's a lot of tropes. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanficRecs/WelcomeToNightVale There's also several pages of fanfic links. quote:Recommended by: stardust_rain, caughtbluehanded, Nightsky quote:(nothing) could be better by novembersmith I feel bad for maxoma.

I've seen a community that once tried to revamp their TV Tropes presence/remove it entirely, and for the effort most of the changes got reverted and a couple members got banned from the site for "vandalism". I've always been a little amused how they actively resist trying to make their site less creepy and stupid. Flesnolk fucked around with this message at 04:21 on Nov 12, 2013 |

Amazingly, I got the page removed by bitching about how goddamn creepy it is on Twitter and retweeting scads of mentions condemning tropers. Just...calling them on their poo poo in public is all it took. Tragic thing is it only worked because I have an audience. It's really awful for people who don't want poo poo smeared all over them on TV Tropes but don't have enough of a public voice to fight it off. A small victory, but a victory nonetheless. Tropers are a weaselly lot. Worst that can happen now is that someone will bring it back and then lock it from editing, but that's still better than having weirdos post there every time I ever do anything that they can stalk out.
