* [[Artistic License Law]]: Fighteer's belief that casually adding a non-negotiable, unilateral (and implicitly ''retroactive'') claim to all contributors' copyrights to [https://web.archive.org/web/20140122054355/http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Administrivia/WelcomeToTVTropes the TVT Admninistrivia page] in 2012 was both legal and an appropriate response to contributor questions about their license status. Fortunately, the new management actually consulted a real lawyer about this in 2015 and backpedaled on it so quickly they left skid marks.

** [[BlazBlue]] is pretty over-represented on their ''Pantheon''(basically a place for them to gush about their favorite characters) for what is basically a niche mix of [[Fighting Game]] and [[Visual Novel]].
