'''T'''he '''A'''rchive of '''B'''ellicose '''L'''exicon '''E'''ntities, or '''TABLE''', wasis a project to catalog all of the groups on this website whose philosophies of cataloging tropes differ. Most of these groups focused on trope names, but a few focusedfocus on images instead.
 
To select a userbox identifying yourself as a member of any of these groups, see the [[All The Tropes:Userboxes/The Archive of Bellicose Lexicon Entities|The Archive of Bellicose Lexicon Entities userbox page]].
Since it was determined that these articles, rather than serving their purpose as fun places for like-minded tropers to associate, were inspiring antagonism and factionalism among our user base, they have been discontinued and all of them now redirect back to this index. This article will remain as a means of defining the acronyms only. We will not be adding new articles, nor will we permit them to contain lists of affiliated tropers.

* '''HOTSAUCE''': the '''H'''otblooded '''O'''thers '''T'''aking a '''S'''tand '''A'''nd '''U'''shering in '''C'''haos and '''E'''ntropy: ''Tropes need to liberated from PLATTER rule by becoming more wild.''
* '''KNIVES''': the '''K'''alculated '''N'''aming '''I'''ndifference '''V'''iolent '''E'''nforcement '''S'''ection: ''The entire debate of trope titles is pointless.''
