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

[Farmer Dave]

I really dislike videos like these that try and explain how an SCP was created and sometimes just make up shit, the mysterious backgrounds of SCPs are part of what makes them interesting.

It's a bit sad, really. I was a fan of SCP in its heyday. Mainstream attention seemed like something impossible. Now that they're completely undermining its atmosphere, both onsite and offsite, it's like there is no artistic direction. All the incredibly stupid tumblr headcanons of popular SCPs being quirky have given the community the same attitude as Merreyweatherey's Clinic of Horrors. It's no longer horror explained in a bureaucratic way, but now it's a stupid orgy of giggling about how quirky and weird everybody involved in it is.

After looking through that, the horny guy is mildly annoying at worst. Seriously, these posts are harmless compared to Doctor "SCP Weinstein" Bright's chat-logs where he admitted to encouraging minors to engage in convention orgies.

From the user’s chat disc thread:

[archive]
Oh my in that chat paste the staff act like they’ve always treated adult topics as wrongthink. Okay I think they are overplaying their hand waaaay too much here, but it’s obviously cause of a now solid reputation of shittiness they have to combat.

And doing it to a relatively innocent person... it’s like they didn’t learn anything.

 

[ARghEAT]

I don't have much to contribute to this thread other than that I stumbled upon it because some mod got pissy after I tried to ask them about a withheld ban log. I'm gonna go and thank that mod now because, you know. I found this.

 

[Hitman One]

I found this site years ago when they only had the first set of SCPs and enjoyed reading it. There is some really creative writing in some of them with just the right amount of information left out to enhance the experience with a bit of mystery. I didn't look at the community pages because my writing skills aren't good enough to contribute anything of worth.

I was browsing the shitshow formerly known as /x/ and buried among the tupla threads was one bemoaning what had become of the SCP Wiki so I read up on that. It's actually quite sad because the site had a lot of potential, but the Internet is full of cows and I guess SPC Wiki is prime grazing ground for them.

I've just started playing Control on the Xbone as it is on sale at the moment. It's by Remedy Games so the same people who did Max Payne, Alan Wake and Quantum Break. It's very, very heavily inspired by the SPC Wiki but I'm enjoying it so far; it's very atmospheric and well written, the combat isn't anything to write home about but it is fun and it's nice to play a modern shooter which doesn't have a regenerating health mechanic.

Reviving this thread so I can post the some cringe-worthy art that I have found within the SCP fandom. Although this thread is the about the wiki itself, I think fandom surrounding the site is awful (minus the sex thing)

First, we have some SCP-049 ships with a self-insert

Oh lmao this is mine. (And the art above is by an old friend.) I drew this back in 2017 for someone on Discord who really wanted it. I don’t mind it being here and i hope it makes you all laugh, i feel bad about some of the old jokey nsfw stuff i made knowing now that the community turned out to be full of predators

 

[kiwi-identified cow]

but the Internet is full of cows and I guess SPC Wiki is prime grazing ground for them.

It is, and my theory is that it creates cows too. Most people join it when they are young and impressionable, and there's this weird mix of emotional reasoning combined with bureaucratic process that seems to 'teach' over-sensitivity in SCP culture. Staff will ban/discipline people for saying words they deem offensive (you can't even say "reeeeee" in #site19) and phrase their reasoning for it like some sort of corporate diversity email so that anyone who argues looks like an asshole no matter what they're saying. (Of course, this is all while they pretend admin Bright hasn't been sexually targeting LGBT teenagers for years and pretend that admin Roget didn't have a staff-approved scheme to target someone's mental health via a months-long fake relationship -- very effective ways to fight for inclusivity and acceptance.)

This culture only intensifies the unhealthy behaviors of people who are already struggling with social skills, mental illness, and personal identity to begin with. It's a group that claims to protect its own from the ~scary outside Internet~ and will make a person feel needed and accepted -- until their identity/demographic can no longer be used to benefit the SCP wiki's political image. You are expected to fit a certain political mold there in terms of identity and what you speak about; it is difficult to simply exist as someone from a minority demographic, and this mentality can 'infect' day-to-day life too. But once you're settled, you don't want to leave everything and all the people you've met, so you just go "the only enemies of the SCP wiki are alt-right homophobes!" and bury your head further in the sand alongside all of your friends. Thus, at the end -- in these cases where an inexperienced young person 'grows up' in the community -- the Internet is left with someone who takes it too seriously and personally, all while going off at dissenters ad infinitum instead of focusing on positive or productive things. It's up to us at the end to either realize what happened or stay ignorant.

...Anyway, the main part of the post: There are a few hundred archived copies of the "Join This Site" page, which can all be found here. (On most SCP wiki pages, anyone can view the page history at the bottom, but not on 'administrative' pages like this one.) These were the instances over the years that seemed noteworthy and/or disturbing:

Spoiler

They had a very simple page for several months in 2011, which was first archived on April 23 2011: https://web.archive.org/web/20110423061352/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

It stayed like that until it was edited to ask for "age, gender, and location" (presumably by Bright) as well: https://web.archive.org/web/20111225101051/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

The next change was archived on March 07 2012, with Bright editing in that "If you are denied, you may always reapply. IF you are denied, I strongly encourage you to re-read the required reading to find out WHY, or send a private message to DrBright for reasons": https://web.archive.org/web/20120307154653/http://www.scp-wiki.net:80/system:join

...And then the next archived change was this: https://web.archive.org/web/20120428184819/http://www.scp-wiki.net:80/system:join

Applications are closed for the weekend, as Bright is off getting drunk and teaching BDSM at Penguicon. Any applications submitted during this period will be rejected.

Then another update from Bright: https://web.archive.org/web/20120529003233/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

And, saved on July 05 2012: https://web.archive.org/web/20120705011745/http://www.scp-wiki.net:80/system:join

Humorous Note: Don't forget, naked self pictures and monetary donations are always welcome, and may help process your application. (Not Really Yes, Really)

It stayed like that until it was edited to remove the "not really/yes really" thing, because that helps a lot: https://web.archive.org/web/20130116005327/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

The "naked self pictures" line was finally removed sometime around this archive, July 28 2013: https://web.archive.org/web/20130728092600/http://www.scp-wiki.net:80/system:join

An archive from Aug 06 2013 shows that they edited it to tell people not to dox themselves, very thoughtful: https://web.archive.org/web/20130806075806/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

In the form provided, please provide: age, location, and your reasons for joining. Failure to provide all three will result in denial. Be as specific with location as you feel comfortable. (Do not say "Earth" for location, or give another joke answer, or worst of all, tell us your real life street address — we shouldn't know that.)

(Note that two years later, Eskobar doxed himself for an SCP article -- IIRC he was still staff in 2015 as well.)

In an edit archived Sept 27 2013, they finally specified a 15+ age requirement to join the site: https://web.archive.org/web/20130927152401/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join They also added "You can use your real name for a username if you really want to" to their instructions. Definitely a great and smart idea to give the teenage userbase.

Oct 05 2013 archive shows that they added a disclaimer about "mature themes": https://web.archive.org/web/20131005071127/http://www.scp-wiki.net:80/system:join

Warning: this wiki, and associated chat, contain themes and discussions of a mature nature. We have a 15 and over age limit. If you are not 15 or older, do not apply.

Archive from Sept 03 2016 shows that they stopped asking for as much personal information (and thus stopped warning people about giving it out, too): https://web.archive.org/web/20160903174334/http://www.scp-wiki.net/system:join

By submitting an application below, you're agreeing that you're 15 years old (or older), and will follow the rules of this site.

Well, that all speaks for itself. Looks like it stayed pretty much the same after that, with archives from 2018 and 2019 showing that they stopped asking for anything other than the site passcode. The webcrawler saved hundreds of snapshots, though, so I could be missing another weird one.

Spoiler: Bright

I'd missed it back then, but Bright was vague-whining on Tumblr several weeks ago, right around his 'retirement':

At this point, I feel the need to say something geared mainly toward the SCP community members that lurk this thread. I use 'he' for Bright because Bright is a cisgender, heterosexual man who preys on queer people by claiming to be queer, and this is what he always has done. Back when I was 18/19, I fell for his 'pansexual' thing too, despite the fact that he'd never shown interest in anyone with a penis; if you have a FetLife account, you will see that all the pictures he likes are of cis women or trans people with vaginas. And in the last several months, only after he was called out extensively for being a predator, did he suddenly 'come out' as trans. He is not a non-dysphoric nonbinary person or whatever the hell "gender chaotic" would mean: http://archive.vn/oFa26

The "no one would fake coming out because it always gets people hate" thing does not hold up in a left-leaning community where acceptance is enforced and many authors are openly LGBT+ anyway. The "trans people deserve to be gendered correctly even if they're evil" thing does not hold up against people like Bright because Bright is not a person who happens to be both trans and a predator; Bright is a predator who pretends to be trans in order to target more trans people. Bright's gender stunt is a clear example of SCP staff figuring out how to manipulate inclusively-minded people into supporting them even harder, so that they can then hurt them even worse. So please, even if you choose to play into the they/them thing when you speak about Bright, bear in mind how easy 'unconditional acceptance' has made it for people like Bright to pretend they are trans in order to hurt more queer people. Even a year ago, I would have fallen for it; we all have to think safely, not politely, in cases like this.

[Nice anon policy on site.]

This thread is probably checked by scp mods to check for possible predators among them and then finding proof to the claims here.

[Lil' Misogynist]

So I’m going to go ahead and finally post this since there’s been some big drama in the SCP fandom today and I’ve seen some very damning evidence of SCP staff lying again that may be uploaded here soon. I hope it’s not too late at this point, I wrote this out at the end of May but I felt bad because part of me still wanted to believe it was a genuine miscommunication. I wanted to talk about something that’s been bothering me ever since Dr. Mann issued a public statement and AH got reformed and stuff. So there’s basically no way to discuss the current sex scandal in any official SCP spaces, even respectfully, because the conversation instantly gets shut down. Examples here: http://05command.wikidot.com/forum/t-13371449/stavinair (https://archive.md/1OvxX)
And here: https://archive.md/G5K7I

I’ve also been seeing a lot of people saying stuff like this and insisting that the Anti-Harassment team didn’t ban some of these creeps earlier because they didn’t have any evidence:

This is supported by Dr. Mann claiming that the accusations of misconduct from Gabriel Jade and Eskobar were nothing but rumors prior to the leaks at the beginning of May:

...welp, here goes my chances of ever being able to talk to SCP staff again. Fuck it, I don’t even care if people know I have an account on here. In short, Dr. Mann is lying to you. (and calling it “exchanging NSFW messages with a minor” is downplaying what actually happened, but you all know that.) At the beginning of this year I made a big report to SoullessSingularity because I felt bad about sitting on a bunch of information about sexual misconduct in the community. Soulless, if you’re reading this, it’s nothing personal but I gotta tell someone. Some things I had evidence for, and some I did not. The things I didn’t have concrete evidence for were from people whom I had very good reason to believe were telling the truth. (spoiler: everything turned out to be true in the end.) Here are the relevant screenshots:

Spoiler: Phone Screenshots

Magnified versions of the screenshots i sent as evidence:

(Thanks to @InsurgencyMoon for allowing me to post these, hopefully I censored out just enough personal info.) I’d like to hope that a much older adult saying something like “ngl a part of me feels bad. It is, however, an easy part to disregard.” to an underage girl who brought up age of consent laws would be enough evidence to prove that this person shouldn’t be staff, much less a member of the wiki, but maybe I’m overreacting and I should just fuck off idk. Case in point: it wasn’t a “rumor”, the Anti-Harassment Team received evidence and testimonies months before Jade and the others got banned, stop lying

Spoiler: other relevant info

By the way, this isn’t even the only time I’ve tried to report stuff to the Anti-Harassment Team just to see it go nowhere. About 6 weeks ago I sent the Anti-Harassment Team evidence that a moderator had manipulated someone into a false friendship to spy on them in private and then exploited this position for sexual gain. Maybe I’ll post it here if I don’t get a reply after this post goes up.

The top screenshot is a picture of the most recent messages in my inbox. (Ignore the person asking for art.) After two and a half weeks without a reply I sent a message asking if any sort of verdict had been reached or if they needed other info from me. My message was literally ignored. I know there isn’t an issue with the Wikidot inbox because it would have been discussed on O5 by now.

To be honest I don’t think there’s any sort of conspiracy going on to protect predators. I think that a lot of people on SCP staff just don’t like me or don’t care about anything I have to say. I’m an irrelevant, long-gone banned user and it’s my word vs the word of (quite often) well-known and beloved community members (no matter what I do to back up my word). That said, the reporting system just doesn’t work and I know I’m not the only person who’s struggled with it too. For the record I don’t think that any part of this situation is necessarily the fault of Lilyflower or Soulless or even Dr Mann. I don’t think the problem lies in the hands of any individual and I don’t know what role these people had. I feel like it most likely lies in whatever sort of voting or discussion system they use to determine when a staff member has broken enough rules to justify punishment, but that shouldn’t hold up when some of these people are repeatedly violating the Anti-Harassment policy.

 

[FeedMyHabits]

I know from personal experience that a certain popular author selling crit and coauthor is literally having people pay him and then he tacks his name on the back of someones work and posts it to his author page.

He earns his popularity on the backs of others and trashy clickbait.

Basically in SCP most of "SCP Culture" takes place off-site and in Discord servers. These servers belong to a popular writer usually who gathers a bunch of poor bastards together into a little happy cult.
The leader asks for money to help them out and in return they will help with a draft on the sandbox. For someone not in SCP its a drafting site and you hand out links to people.
You can easily slip into one of these happy cults, and it will always look like a fun and supportive place. Someone works on an article- donators are given special help by the owner themselves- Who then gets to slap a co-author and get to post it on their author page, grabbing upvotes on someones work.

Donators are treated with a special hand, the popular authors in the servers will make a point to talk directly to them, the owners of the servers will treat them with preference. Non-donors will be pushed to become donors through social inclusion/exclusion. If a donor posts a article it will be met with the happy, friendly server upvote factory. If the owner posts anything it will instantly have a following because not upvoting the owners article is something you can be directly named for publicly. For some reason authors can see exactly who upvoted their article and there is no way to opt out of it.

These groups are handled like money and upvote factories, enforced with social pressure. You don't realize you're in the cult until one day you cant pay that months payment or step up to give money on a youtube premere and suddenly people don't talk to you anymore and you drop some money because of the sheer amount of psychological manipulation you're under.

It's usually the new SCP members who fall into the machine to come out the other end a few hundred dollars shorter and scarred by the Cult of SCP. The immersion and friendship is attractive, but there are so many bad players in positions of high social power that it's insanely easy to get away with bleeding people of their money with enough manipulation and leveraging of reputation and power.

These people can make or break new members in SCP and using these upvote cults is almost the only way to have any kind of hope of having an article stick to the site without being pushed to deletion by a few unhappy trolls who seek out new articles to help burn.

I'm happy the O5 managed to kill some of the donation abuse, but it's not over yet, loopholes are easily found.

 

[Fougaro]

What a shame! I used to enjoy some of the SCP lore, but thanks to the decline of the community it is now more AIDS infested than a gay Russian krokodil addict.

One of my favourites will always be 953 - The Polymorphic Humanoid and patron saint of the Animal Control subforum.

Fucking based!

Other favourites of mine are 348, 516, 914, 999, 1230 and 1867. If I had to pick a favourite (aside of the based furfag exterminator) it would be 978.

I'll admit some of the fan stuff is still good. The SCP Minecraft Foundation series marathons through most of the SCPs and I'd even recommend it to newbies. The SCP: Sedition series is still pretty neat.

 

[Mexican_Wizard_711]

So apparently SCP has just been mentioned in the latest Internet Historian Video

In the video, IH creates an OC monster named Mento and jokingly gives it the designation SCP-4567. Some IH fans went to the actual SCP talk page and made mento memes
