The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

It's nice to know someone is looking out for the folks in Torchwood. I bet there is quite a bit of badfic in that world.
It's funny, though. The story you PPC'd was rather dull, or at least it seemed that way. I mean, did anything actually happen in it?
Good job. You made it interesting and funny!

Welcome. I gift thee with lots of chocolate. Everyone should have chocolate in storage for emergencies.

Response Center, TARDIS keeps on breaking down. Need something that won't keep going wonky.

Have you read That Series? If you survived Celebrian...

Exceedingly hilarious.

*huggles plushie and offers a Suenicorn tail*
You can use it as a fly-whisk...I think...

I burst out laughing halfway through the first paragraph. Unsquickable One, I salute thee.

I gift thee with an egg whisk! It's shiny, gold-plated, and whisks not only eggs but spambots and author wraiths, too! Use it for good and not much evil.

Welcome to the insanity! Enjoy the ride.

That's amazing.

Well, I decided to take the rite of passage. That is one strange story. I managed to get through it on the first attempt with no more than a raised eyebrow or two, though. I think my mental defences are pobably good enough to survive at PPC for a while.

Well, as just the FAQ cracked me up, I think you're probably headed in the right direction :D

Hi! Welcome!

Here's a link to the PPC Wiki, which has a lot of handy stuff and handy links on it. And some funny stuff on it. It's not quite as addicting or mindmelting as TV Tropes but we're trying to get there, even if we can't possibly get as big due to different targets.

I hope you read the Board Consitution through that link or the one up on top of the board. The FAQ for the Board is handy as well.

Keep the fact that you need to ask for permission before you PPC anything in mind (since that way there's some general quality control over things).

Anyhow, welcome to the board, and enjoy your time here.

July, who is happy she got to link the Wiki for once

You guys are a good team. I'm looking forward to the third (and please, please, final) part, haha.

And I was talking morally. But I disagree with your last two paragraphs because there is no dividing line between where an idea becomes specific. If I wrote a story about a coven of vegetarian vampires, even if I use nothing else even vaguely similar to Twilight, I would instantly get shouted down for plagerism. Whether or not that's right is debateably, but I know I wouldn't be able to do it morally because the idea did NOT occur to me until I'd seen the film.

There's no way to prove whether a second author came up with the idea independantly, but if you know you didn't, then I still say it's wrong.

The others have already said everything of importance, so I'll just wave, hand you some Shiny Things, and offer a potted cactus.

And I believe two of our number (SealRat, was it? And someone else) have already decided to spork it. Though it's a troll, we're just being careful.

Hope you enjoy your stay!

I'm male. As for whether or not My Immortal is a troll, I was under the impression that the debate over that never got settled one way or another. My feeling is that it's genuine, and I would dearly love to see the PPC take her out.

Hello hello hello! Welcome, and have a graduated cylinder! *tosses cylinder*

Also, the fic you want killed is a troll. Better luck next time, by which I mean ha! It's a troll! Troll-picker! But nah, I'm just messing with you. Hope you have fun here.

Lovely to have you here. *presents you with a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object*

By the way, "My Immortal" has been designated a troll by we PPCers, and as a general rule we don't tend to kill trolls, so you might want to turn your sights elsewhere for fic-slaying. Try the PPC Wiki Unclaimed Badfic page, there are plenty of targets there.

By the way, are you male or female? I just have a burning curiosity about these things. :)

Welcomes again, lovely to see more members of the Canon Protection Initiative.

Have some roasted Suenicorn and a Long-Handled Soy Chai Latte.
That one's a troll, though. Right? Please say it's a troll, please! I'M BEGGIN' YA, MAN!

I got a machete, although it didn't scream PPC to me as I only found the PPC yesterday.

'Lo, all. Found the wonderful organisation that is the PPC on TV Tropes and decided to join up. I'm wondering whether anyone has assassinated the notorious Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way yet. If not, I might attempt to take on the task myself, but as I think there is not a single canon character in sight in the fic she comes from, that they have all been kidnapped, I think it would be something of a mammoth task to dump on a newbie.

Any veterans feel like skewering her? She deserves it like no other Sue I've ever seen.

Have you worked out the details of how the TARDIS can somehow turn Rose into a Time Lady? Given that whole thing where, y'know, Time Lords are the ones that have graduated from the academy on Gallifrey and all that. To be a Time Lady she'd have to have all the knowledge a Time Lord would pick up at the academy, and that seems remarkably similar, to me, to the season four finale, and the thing where you can't have a Time Lord consciousness in a human brain. So you'd be having to change her biology to make her into a Gallifreyan, and, alright, the chameleon arch can be used to do the process the other way around, but then you'd need a specific reason why chameleon arches or something like them to turn non-Gallifreyans into Gallifreyans would have been invented and installed in TARDISes.

Short version: how on earth is this going to work? What are your ideas so far?
