TVTropes stigma?

Closed
UncleCactus

After wandering the internet for a while now, I've noticed in several forums (usually those discussing plot related media such as movies, anime, etc.)that users would speak negatively of TVTropes, while others use it as a way to see the different types of tropes used in a particular form of media. I don't know any story, if any, about TVTropes' past behavior or whatever that would cause this type of reaction so could someone please explain it?

Do you mean when someone links it?

If so, it's usually because they wanted to get stuff done that day, and not spend it all on tvtropes. It's a running joke cause it can drag you in with all the wikihopping.

If you mean in general, huh, I haven't come across that, but I don't spend much time on that type of site. But, yeah, tvtropes can be crazy addictive to many people.

A Ghost Head is a type of Cybernetic Allen Key which a Fake Thomas Jefferson uses to Impeach The Goddamn President. Used mostly when a writer is Combing His Hair or Speaking Fluent Cat, although if a character is Shirtless And Hungry it can be used to give them a Fire Island Swirlie.
