Computer problems are problematic, but they're fixed now, so I return to regular community access. Seems like I haven't missed anything, except a lot of newbie introductions - it feels like another flood! How long have I been gone? Two weeks?
Anyway, hello to all you newcomers - I give each of you both a granite pillow and a Bag, to be used as you see fit.

I'm not a 'major' fan... by

The trailer looked interesting (pretty pictures!). It's always strange seeing a live action movie based on a cartoon. I was reading the comments and apparently there's some race wank, etc.
I saw that it was directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Hoo boy. I hope he won't screw this one up. -_-

The other "Avatar" movie by
on 2010-02-11 13:51:00 UTC

I know there's been buzz here about "Avatar" (which I've still been meaning to see), but I'd like to turn the attention a bit to an upcoming summer movie based on a certain cartoon series. In other words, "The Last Airbender", based on "Avatar: The Last Airbender".
I'm a minor fan of the series (I've only seen each episode once), but I'm quite interested in this movie and how the sequels will turn out. Yes, I know there have been wars on the fan websites because of the actors chosen, but my point isn't to discuss that. I want to know what the major fanatics think of the upcoming movie. (I'm quite surprised that this hasn't been brought up sooner, actually.)
The full-length trailer was finally released, so here is the link.

Welcome! I offer you this sparkly rock (pickax not included). Hope you stay with us for a while and enjoy yourself while you do.

p.s. I would advise against reading the legendary badfic. I suppose if you can somehow manage to see the humour in them it's fine, but they tend to be worse than they sound, and they sound bad. At least, to me they do. Then again, I have issues with graphic smut, so it may be easier for you, depending on your level of tolerance. Good luck if you do choose to read them!

Physic In Their Elements from the very problematic misspellings in Backlash's Story. I'm thinking something like Jonathon Coulton's Mandlebrot Set, but without the mathematical accuracy.
Trenchcoat Martens, playing such songs as "What the hell are you?" flying in from the Chess badfic, to the tune of The Who's "Who Are You".

Hello. I hope you enjoy it here.
...The others will ask about depositing your sanity somewhere, I advise you to not put it in there at any cost.
I won't come looking for it if you do anyways.

I don't know about you, but I would love to see what would happen if Alucard was unleashed on Edward Cullen... BUT I DIGRESS. Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't need it here. Also, have some coconuts. There's at least a lovely bunch or two there.

Thanks, everyone! It's nice to meet you all!
Thank you especially for the links- I've almost finished reading all of the original stories, but the badfics look wonderfully entertaining in a masochistic sort of way. Good thing the internet has made me (mostly) immune to disturbing fanfics. I'll definitely check out the other sites, too.

I comes bearing links. *drags out Big Bag O' Links and digs through it*
First off is the link to the Wiki, a veritable fount of information for a newbie to read through. Especially helpful for you if you want to write missions would be the page on Permission (note the capital P).
I would advise against reading any Legendary Badfic, unless you are of strong mind and stomach. Even the summaries have been known to give those of weaker constitution nightmares.
For your reading pleasure, not knowing what you have already managed to find, I have several links for you. The Original Series (not to be confused with Star Trek) is a good place to start, as the PPC did many aeons ago.What do you mean I'm exaggerating?The Department of Geographical Aberrations is another interesting place to visit, if you have the time and inclination. Also by hS is the Tangled Webs site, which contains backstory for the PPC as an organisation. If you would rather visit the Floaters, then July's site is the place you need to be. And last, but most definitely not least, Response Centre 45 is where Trojie and Pads' missions are archived.
Hope you enjoy your stay here. Please deposit your sanity into the container offered to you by another Boarder; you won't be needing it here.

Welcome to the PPC! Here's a dagger set from the Raven Amory and a bottle of bleeprin! I don't know any of your fandoms very well, but perhaps I'll look more into them this weekend. (I'm completely snowed in at the moment, so I'm going to be bored to tears real fast if I don't write and read a lot.)

Hello, I'm new here. I saw a couple stories about something called a PPC and, being curious to the point of requiring lots of brain bleach on a daily basis, I decided to look it up, and I think this is a really great idea.
I'm glad this place exists; I've seen quite a few dreadful fanfic sues that really, really, really deserve to be slaughtered. While I don't write much fanfic myself (I occasionally write some ridiculously cracky stuff, but not very often), I read a lot in Watchmen, Hellsing (though most of it is depressingly bad), Sherlock Holmes, and a couple of other fandoms I can't think of at the moment. I can't wait to maybe write some of my own stories here, so I'll be seeing you around.
Nice to meet you all. ^-^

Okay ... current favourite is "Unexpected Unicorn". by

A reference to:
1) my own sporking of "Martin's First Time" in which Martin is totally unsurprised by the random mention of a unicorn: http://chelonianmobile.livejournal.com/2007/08/10/
2) a weird Twilight one with the worst extended metaphor ever: http://community.livejournal.com/itslikewhat/2336.html
Both links are not-worksafe.
"My Immortal" gives us the wonderful band name "BloodyGothicRose666":

I also reckon there is at least one line in there which would make a good song title for said band: "Why Couldn't Satan Have Made Me Less Beautiful?"

I think it might help kick-start things if you gave us a few examples yourself. It's your idea, after all. {= )
That said, Barid and I DID have some fun coming up with band names based on stuff in C*l*br**n, but I'm not sure we should post them on this supposedly family-safe Board. ^_^;
