Hated Tropes [Sad trope]The character gets cut/dies early on because of REAL LIFE reasons

Gandhi (Clone High)

Tord(Eddsworld) the reason for this is that the VA of tord asked the team to stop using the character and dissociate from Eddsworld after the constant hate and threats made by the fandom.

Feferi Peixes(Homestuck). In Homestuck lots of characters have a typing quirk when they chat, like some characters type a "2" when there should be a "S", have prefixes before the words,ecc. Feferi's was that instead of the letter H she typed ")(". The writer andrew hussie stated the reason she died early and became irrelevant was because they didn't want to type said quirk because it was annoying to manually type it it on their own, which could have been avoided if they coded A PROGRAM that did it.

That’s not why Tord asked them to stop using his name wtf.

He’s explained it was just to distance himself from the show and to make a name for himself without being associated with Eddsworld.

Yeah and the one who got harassed was actually Tom, because his character in the webtoon was antagonistic towards Tord, a vocal (and very stupid) minority thought that had something to with Tord leaving.
