the fact that they got in is still the problem, basically everyone read those OC self inserts and went "this is fine"

2020-02-28 10:20:53 UTC  

The thing is that they’re not direct self inserts

2020-02-28 10:21:01 UTC  

They have defining character traits

2020-02-28 10:21:33 UTC  

They’re more characters in universe with a couple features related to the authors rather than direct carbon copy self inserts

2020-02-28 10:21:39 UTC  

Doctor bright for example

2020-02-28 10:21:45 UTC  

Is literally a fucking SCP

2020-02-28 10:22:08 UTC  

And has a fleshed out story and defined character traits

2020-02-28 10:22:35 UTC  

And canonically they make sense

2020-02-28 10:22:50 UTC  

Why would the writers on the site not be actual people in universe

2020-02-28 10:23:15 UTC  

Since the people in universe are supposed to be the ones writing them

2020-02-28 10:23:18 UTC  

no
thats the whole reason i dont like the SCPverse
i prefer my horror to be impersonal

2020-02-28 10:23:28 UTC  

I haven't followed super-closely since they got uber-woke

2020-02-28 10:23:32 UTC  

but there is still good to be had

2020-02-28 10:23:35 UTC  

Well there’s your problem

2020-02-28 10:23:42 UTC  

Some of these people definitely deserve jobs

2020-02-28 10:23:47 UTC  

I’d honestly say that the SCP universe isn’t horro.

2020-02-28 10:23:54 UTC  

It WAS horror

2020-02-28 10:23:55 UTC  

Horror.

2020-02-28 10:23:58 UTC  

id genuinely rather listen to a monotone guy read a spooky story with no personal attachments like implying the narrator is part of the story or have experienced it

2020-02-28 10:24:00 UTC  

It used to be

2020-02-28 10:24:11 UTC  

But it’s not horror anymore

2020-02-28 10:24:18 UTC  

Did you just literally explain the SCP format?

2020-02-28 10:24:23 UTC  

i got banned off twitter around when scp was going woke

2020-02-28 10:24:25 UTC  

It's a technical document about Bigfoot

2020-02-28 10:24:41 UTC  

its more of an edgy men in black fan universe

2020-02-28 10:24:54 UTC  

i told the spearhead guy 'word of power: kys faggot' 😛

2020-02-28 10:24:56 UTC  

It’s an archive of anomalous entities with logs attached defining the various events and experiments related to said entities

2020-02-28 10:25:18 UTC  

also lgbt propaganda 👌

2020-02-28 10:25:19 UTC  

When you start getting into tales is when it gets kinda cringe

2020-02-28 10:25:44 UTC  

Don't even get me started on Iris

2020-02-28 10:25:55 UTC  

Total SJW Marvel bullshit

2020-02-28 10:26:13 UTC  

it's such a shitty stream anyway

2020-02-28 10:26:15 UTC  

I’m ngl I didn’t keep up on the whole lgbt thing that happened and I’m staying out of it

2020-02-28 10:26:28 UTC  

not directly related to scp, but regarding spooky story youtuebers i **fucking hate it** when the story reader makes stories more dramatic than they really are, like if the character is being chased they also start panting and talking like theyre tired. just read the damn story dammit

2020-02-28 10:26:29 UTC  

instead of writing stories, lets write pseudodocuments explaining the stories we havent written

2020-02-28 10:26:54 UTC  

The point of it is that ^

2020-02-28 10:27:01 UTC  

One person basically gives a prompt

2020-02-28 10:27:11 UTC  

And everyone is supposed to write about the prompt

2020-02-28 10:27:34 UTC  

SCPs themselves are writing prompts

2020-02-28 10:27:40 UTC  

that just sounds like a way to get better writers to write your shit.

2020-02-28 10:27:41 UTC  

would they mind if i wrote proper short story out of scp wiki?
