SCP Foundation - Creepypasta with roid rage - now ITT: SCP fans

I like the fact that it's never specified why it shouldn't come into contact with dead bodies. It leaves a lot to the imagination.

The testing logs are pretty funny https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/experiment-log-447-a

I love the SCPs that warrant testing logs like this the most, I think. Especially since they usually get more additions later on.

There was one I read ages ago, not on the official site so I can't find it now but it was about a weird shape shifting rock, it didn't change from a rock into a bird or anything like that it just turned into another rock when unobserved, the researcher doing the investigations ended up with most of the experiments "Rock fell to the floor" - turned out it was just a normal rock and the junior researcher was playing a practical joke on him by changing the rock randomly to ones he just picked up.

Idunno, the narration sounds vaguely AI, but with the "sped" dial turned up a bit too high.

I read the whole thing and it's surprisingly intriguing, I would say more but it's better if you read it for yourself.

I remember when the first threads of this popped up on /x/ and thought it was the coolest thing ever. To be honest I feel like the self-inserting faggots like Bright and shit are and were way worse than the troonfags that have shit up SCP in recent years. They laid the groundwork for the outrageous bullshit and I don't think the concept ever really recovered from their young-adult dialogue bullshit writing. If the SCP article has a gigantic "audio log" I always skip it because nine times out of ten it's cringey as fuck written by a teenager that has never spoken to another person outside of their family unit.

My personal favorite is either the NBA game tape that's stuck in a time loop and it resets every time the tape is replayed or the magical remote that lets you go into the meta until the white fuzz.

The Volgun does his own Vocal work, Art, an Music and most of his scripting as well as editing etc dude is a legit talent and I've yet to smell anything weird about him, he just likes doing SCP stuff and it also gets him voice work etc, He is one of those few treasures who's just a normal dude who likes what he's doing.

Along those lines, I liked SCP-1025--a copy of The Encyclopedia of Common Diseases that induced symptoms of whatever disease was read about, without actually causing any instances of disease; in other words, its effect was to induce hypochondria, leading to bizarre and increasingly hysterical reactions from the researchers assigned to study it. The note at the end nicely sums the whole thing up.

After careful review of all research on SCP-1025, I'm ordering an immediate evaluation of whoever approved the use of 27 D-Class subjects, an isolated facility, and a dedicated underground bunker on this money pit. Not one out-of-the-ordinary infectious agent was found anyplace this item was tested. And every involved staff member had passed a basic psych exam within the previous year. I have no idea how far up the chain of command this "hypochondria by proxy" effect can reach, or how it works, and frankly, I see no benefit in learning. Stick it in a box, lock it up, and for God's sake, try not to worry about it.

I like it, it's short and sweet and doesn't feel the need to be 30 pages long about the author's OC and a Keter-class anomaly.

Reading through the newer SCP 447 logs is painful. So many pop culture references and video games jammed into the machine. Apparently Game Boy Advances are allowed in the break room of this top secret, morally dark secret organization.

Also every entry has about half a dozen notes from various scientists needing to add a silly commentary which are totally definitely not just self-inserts of those writing the entries. Even had a "Yikes!" moment in one.

You can really tell most SCP tales and a lot of older SCPs themselves were written by autists who have never worked a normal job and have no clue how people communicate in real life in a professional setting. I wanna point out how weirdly common it is as a fanfiction trope to have characters in very serious settings and situations acting like goofy retards, jeopardizing the entire operation and being a nuisance to everyone, and other characters just laughing it off or going on comically overacted rants which are cringe and unfunny (see the one (1) dead body experiment with 447 for a gruesome example). It's one of the most obnoxious forms of self-insert.

I always liked when the researchers could get a little quirky but over the years writers neglected too hard that this is a top secret, incredibly demanding, ethically questionable organization that uses convicts like rab rats.

Personally I don't like the, frankly, unprofessional tone of the people in the "dialogue" like in the audio logs and shit. They talk like Marvel Superheroes, not professional scientists and security agents. Even if someone did talk like that, they'd probably edit out all the extraneous conversation in the log that's put into the main information article for the SCP.

I blame Dr. Bright personally, for that and for being a gargantuan sex pest.

The one that really got me was SCP-455, where the HQ contact was yelling and cursing like a tween whose parents were out of the house while the team on the other end was managing to still sound mostly professional even though they were scared out of their minds. It just didn't ring true for a professional organization to have someone on the line yelling stuff like "Where the flying fist fuck have you been?"and "sweet dapper Jesus of the Gentlemen's Club."
