I've been a troper for maybe over a year now, but it seems like in the last several months or so, they've gotten increasingly rulesy about what you can and can't do, but I believe one of the moderators told me part of it is because they have to do constant battle with trolls and spammers... not sure what that has to do with how they've been generalizing their tropes as of late. Some cases seem to be they want tropes to be more to-the-point and less wordy, and admittedly, in the case of the aforementioned Durwood trope, "Accidental Misnaming" IS simpler and less wordy than "My Name is Not Durwood". Matter of fact, when I recently launched "The Law Firm of Pun, Pun and Wordplay", one of the things standing in the way of launching it from YKTTW was nobody could agree on a "better name": some people DID like the name as it was, but many others felt it was too long, too word, and even too specific (as it was exactly what it says on the tin, but some wanted to expand it into including other business with such punny names), but again, although many other people suggested many other names, nobody could decide or agree on which one was better, so I went ahead and launched it The Law Firm of Pun, Pun and Wordplay, because I felt it best described what the trope was about.
Oh yeah, and you can't use the word "trope" in a title anymore either: another YKKTW of mine I had titled "Trope at Six O'Clock" (for jokes when someone spots something in a position that relates to the face of a clock, while another character thinks they're talking about what time it is), but I had to change it, because "trope" can't be used as a placeholder in a name anymore.
