User:Robkelk

NOTE: All "add as foe" requests to this user will be declined, in accordance with Rule 4 of the Tropers' Code: "The second part of it is being tolerant to others. You may not agree with an editor, but you should always be able to respect another editor." (Repeated "add as foe" requests to this user will earn the requester a temporary block from editing the wiki, also in accordance with Rule 4 of the Tropers' Code.) Also, "add as friend" requests to this user are likely to sit unanswered until such time as the two people meet in Real Life.

"I was trained to be tolerant of everything except intolerance."

Offerer of somewhat-useful advice over on the DW forums, now with his own account here. (And, since it's now mentioned on the Main Page here, the founding admin of the Poser and Daz Studio Free Resources Wiki.)

Rob would classify himself as Exopedian, and has common ground with the Association of Structurist Tropers. He might be a WikiBear, a WikiElf, or both.

Rob finds it amusing that he has been involved in two forks without having been involved in the originals: All The Tropes and Wikivoyage. Rob also finds it amusing to talk about himself in the third person in bio entries.

Because it came up in discussion with the other moderators in September 2016: There are some things that Rob dislikes in fiction - torture, rape, and sexualization of minors top that list. However, not mentioning these things on the wiki is, in his mind, the same as pretending that they don't exist - and that's even worse.

Tropes
Rob is willing to admit to being an example of these tropes:
 * Ascended Fanboy: The first (as of July 2018) and, as of early-2020, the only person to complete the journey from average Troper to wiki bureaucrat at All The Tropes. (The other bureaucrats started at TV Tropes before the fork, or were sysadmins at Miraheze.)
 * Attention Deficit Creator Disorder: Rob has many projects on the go at any given time.
 * Third-Person Person: at least on this page.
