** This attitude changed somewhat once the board was transferred. Shirotsume, the one responsible, did not want to be the admin, and instead voting was upheld to ensure there would be a proper selection of admins and mods. This went well... with a few issues here and there.
*** Despite this, TFF remains under a policy of self-policing as a whole; mods and admins only get involve in legitimate issues, and not in minor scuffles between members.
* [[Blatant Lies]] - An unofficial motto: "Don't you know that people lie?" Currently out of date.
* [[Catgirl]] - Love/Hate relationship with them.
* [[Crack Fic]] - Possibly TFF's only redeeming value.
** Examples include things by Innortal (Shinji and Pen Pen's Amazing Journey and Loops), Lord Raa (Top Banana, Exit Obstructed By a Bear), AJT (Harry Potter & the Combat Butler)...
* [[
* [[Deadpan Snarker]] - Immortalized with zeebee01. Posts where he has nothing negative to say about your idea are very rare.
* [[Fanfic]] - Well, what did you expect with that name?
* [[Finagle's Law]] - Combined with the inversion/defiance below. Most members are young adults, or at least definitely adult males, and as such, are prone to coming up with some naughty ideas.
* [[Flame War]] - Anything. Literally. ANYTHING.
* [[Hatedom]] - Not quite as much as one might expect. Most of it is [[Broken Base]], but there are some notable exceptions. (See [[Blatant Lies]])
** There is very little love for [[Twilight (Literature)|vampires that sparkle]] in the Books section.
** And Perfect Lionheart, in general.
* [[Hive Mind]] - Used to exist. According to the previous version, "The TFF Hivemind exists because TFF itself, is ''forced'' to police and moderate itself. As expected, it does not end well. Not unexpectedly, TFF loathes itself with all the loathing of a thousand frozen tentacles, except when sometimes the [[Flame War|vicious heat]] and [[It Seemed Like a Good Idea At
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]
▲* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: TFF has over 10,000 members, and over 200 with 1,000+ posts.
** The new version is quickly approaching 15,000, with almost 300 having more than 1,000 posts.
* [[Most Fanfic Authors Are Girls]] - Generally defied. Although there are several major female posters, the majority is still male. Or undefined* [[Real Life]] - Keeps getting in the way.
* [[Self-Destruct Mechanism]] - Bring a topic members will be divided over and watch the fireworks.
**A thread isn't successful until it's been threadjacked.
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]] - The members of the Anbu Demolition Corps, an invention of TFF's hivemind, are masters of this trope.
* [[Troll]] - Quite a few of them. Most of them will refuse to admit it, of course, but even a cursory glance at the site will make them pretty obvious.
