'''NOTE: All "add as foe" requests to this user will be declined, in accordance with [[All The Tropes:There is No One True Way|Rule 4 of the Tropers' Code]]: "The second part of it is being tolerant to others.

(''Repeated'' "add as foe" requests to this user will earn the requester a temporary block from editing the wiki, also in accordance with [[All The Tropes:There is No One True Way|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.

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 [https://poserdazfreebies.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page Poser and Daz Studio Free Resources Wiki].)
 
Rob would classify himself as [[Exopedianism|Exopedian]], and has common ground with the [[Association of Structurist Tropers]]. He might be a [[WikiBear]], a [[WikiElf]], or both.
 
Rob is both a published writer and a fanfic author. As such, he has particular views on the "proper" way to write, which don't always match [[All The Tropes:Style Guide|this wiki's Style Guide]]. Feel free to bring his writing into conformance with the wiki's preferred style whenever necessary.
 
Politically, Rob considers himself to be centrist... but that's a ''Canadian'' centrist, which would be considered to be right-leaning in Europe and left-leaning in the USA.
 
Rob finds it amusing that he has been involved in two forks without having been involved in the originals: [[All_The_Tropes:Why_Fork_TV_Tropes|All The Tropes]] and [https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Wikivoyage:Wikivoyage_and_Wikitravel Wikivoyage]. Rob also finds it amusing to [[Third-Person Person|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]]: As of mid-2019, the only person to complete the journey from average Troper to [[All The Tropes:Bureaucrats|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.
* [[Name's the Same]]: A quirk of his writing; he used the name "Rob Donaldson" for characters in ''[[Fenspace]]'', ''[[My Apartment Manager is not an Isekai Character]]'', and ''[[Isekai by Moonlight]]''. These are three different characters.
* [[Third Person Person]]: at least on this page.
* [[AscendedPromoted Fanboy]]: AsThe first (as of July 2018) and, as of midlate-20192022, the only person to complete the journey from average Troper to [[All The Tropes:Bureaucrats|wiki bureaucrat]] at All The Tropes. (The other bureaucrats started at TV Tropes before the fork, or were sysadmins at Miraheze.) It took Rob four years to make the climb, and he considers himself to have been on the fast-track.
* [[Third -Person Person]]: atAt least on this page.
