Tv Tropes and Nationstates

[Arcturus Novus]

Oh man, I forgot all about this it's so out of date. I'm ArcturusNovus on TVT; if I can, I'll help update it.

Awesome. I leave this thread for a few days, and it hits four pages.

I mean, its a wiki, so anyone can get in there. If we all add one trope each, the page will balloon nicely.

[The Blaatschapen]

So, turns out Nationstates has a TV Tropes page.

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/W ... tionStates

Does anyone know who contributed this? Is anyone here interested in working with me to make it more up to date and comprehensive?

We also have an urban dictionary entry. An entry which shows that the site has a long history of people getting butthurt when they get banned for breaking the rules.

Yes, people are surprised that not all of the internet is as lawless as the YouTube comment section.

Indeed.

Oh, god, those lawless, trackless wastes...

Man someone should do an issue about YouTube comments.

Actually, I'll go write it now.

I had no idea Nationstates was considered significant enough to warrant a TV Tropes page.

We're on XKCD's map of the internet.

We're an MMO?

[Galloism]

Apparently there's nations and role playing and stuff?

Dunno.

Thank you! I was looking all over the forums area trying to find it.

[Great Kauthar]

Huh, I didn't even know what TV Tropes was until I clicked the link, and even then, I didn't know NationStates had one.

Also, i think the NS page must be updated, adding cases like my forumbanning, or the Tricolour and #FreeKendor incident, etc

lets add an entry for every single post ever made while we're at it

Dunno.

I was literally checking the forums part of the map for half an hour, because that's really the only part that I care about. That, and trying to get my nation's black market down.

Might take a while.

[Gauthier]

We're the same size as Urban Dead.

It's almost insulting.

Holy shit, Urban Dead still exists.

A webgame about zombies refusing to die off, surprise.

[Minoa]

Two of them. NSWiki and IIWiki.

IIWiki is best Wiki

NSindex is also one, although smaller at present. What's the trope for the collapse of the old NSwiki that took much of the history with it, forcing me to do time-consuming net archeology to rebuild stuff like https://nsindex.net/wiki/Birthday_Banners?

Oh my god, banning rap music. That used to be so popular on NS.

[Republic of Canador]

Reading that gave me a bit of nostalgia.

Damn Internet making me grow sentimental to a website....

[Outer Sparta]

The only problem is, in fact, a critical lack of tropes.

It was horrifying, yes.

Try that within days of your account's creation.

Fun.

Yeeeeah, Max and [v] got an earful from the mods for springing that gem on everybody unawares. We were the ones on the front lines dealing with all the panicked players and then the ones getting screamed at by folks well and truly (and rightfully, if I'm perfectly honest) pissed the hell off by the entire thing. That was not a fun few days. x_x

[New Visayan Islands]

If you ask me, I first got into NS through TV Tropes. At the time, I was using the Central and Eastern Visayas account. On TV Tropes itself, I go by redrosary, but it's been a while since I last logged in.
