I also agree with the thread, and creating by consensus, not by vote. I also think it's a good idea to have it open for posting only when it's appropriate, and not always there. Thanks for articulating what was needed when I wasn't even sure how to formulate the words, guys.
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

What is even happening?
Can we wait for some confirmation of his death?

I agree with Cindy.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Confirmation before creating the thread, or confirmation before donating? It seems sensible. In any case, I'd be for creating a thread for this.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I contacted the admin at tvtropes.org as a check, because I didn't want the news to be true, and I had seen edits from "Gus" recently. I used the contact form [link] not a post to the "Gus" or "Janitor" pages. I didn't get a direct response at the e-mail address I left (same as my profile address here), but this was posted soon after (scroll to the bottom): [link]

I don't totally get what that means. The post, that is; the one that's directed to the Buffistas.

dcp, did you link to the right thing? Because I don't see anything germane there.
Did miss the end there, since I was only really reading the Gus posts.

Our wings are not tired.
It seems to just say that the Gus posts were not in fact from Gus.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
brenda, did you read all the way to the bottom?
Janitor: Mostly for Buffistas: Yes. I have been "doing" Gus, as actors say, for a few weeks. I apologize for the deception. He wanted this tropes thing to live. It was important to him.
Which was, from looking at the page edits, apparently posted this morning.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't totally get what that means. The post, that is; the one that's directed to the Buffistas.
I think it says that someone had been posting as Gus on the site after his death (God, I don't even like typing that) to keep the illusion alive.
