Maybe
Hmmm... I do believe that maybe some were cut. There is quite a range inbetween me joining and me commenting the first time and I likely would've had something to comment on the anti-kissmanga campaign, given that's how I joined the site.
Might have to ask the mods to look into that, dunno
Yeah same, my supposed "oldest" comment is clearly not my real oldest comment.
pg 9 has under-aged close hand contact, someone contact the mods this is too lewd for this site
I am pretty sure my true first comments were not this openly gooner, I remember I was more shy and introverted at first.

The face of doubt.

Then after he gets kicked out, it turns out Mc did everything and was the most overpowered person in existence, making the party the useless one
I'm pretty certain that this bad trope overall is the following cope "They fired me from the company, but these losers don't know I am the one everything depended upon, fuck them"
Sometimes, that one is right, when the execs fire the programmer that actually knew how the entire system has been working and replace them with a cheaper one, only for that to be unable to actually fix that system, but most of the time it's a cope.

This. There are very few people who are legitimately 'critical' to the success of their employer, and most of those are in smaller businesses. It works a bit better in the fantasy genre, since those are almost all small groups where losing a person has a huge impact on the group dynamic, but many of those setups still require that the initial antagonist who does the firing is a colossal idiot who somehow overlooks this.

What I consider really negative about this trope is that it "validates" the mindset of "I'm already the best, anyone who doesn't acknowledge that and doesn't regard me positively is just an idiot who will doom themselves" that this trope and the "My ability is F-Rank, but it's actually godmode" that's sometimes even linked with it.
Which, given that the likely target audience are people that have some sort of problem, is that it gives a positive reinforcement to their personality flaws and discourages introspection.

Worst trope, instantly establishes everybody as a mouth breather and the MC as an emotionally whipped doofus for staying.
Usually the reasoning on level
"I can't leave this party we sniffed glue together as kids."
