The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

Thanks! I'll hopefully be able to expand the thing into a longer story, at least a few pages, and then hopefully show it off. ^^

Thanks, and will do!

...it'll save you a lot of cutting and pasting and me a trip to the post office. If it turns out do you need any of it, though, let me know and I'll get the CD out to you by Priority Snail. If not, at least I'll be able to read the wiki when my net connection is down! :)

He's deliberately trying to hurt people.

For example, after Kittenmommy decided to have anything further to do with his CC (quietly, by PM) he first insulted and threatened her, then retaliated by posting reviews on a bunch of her stories accusing her of plagiarism and worse. He's done something similar to Roadstergal. Have you read his profile? He threatens people, he tries to intimidate people, and he's way beyond jerk and well into full-blown psychopath.

Not that I'm advocating any action against him aside from reporting his plagiarism to FFN Abuse, each and every time, mind you. 12 fics came down today; it's working. But it's not a case of "Even if he is a plagiarizing jerk" or any kind of "if" -- it's a case of "He definitely is a griefer out to upset and hurt writers" and if people want to play his game by his own rules, I can certainly understand where they're coming from.

I suppose I have a trace of the griefer spirit myself, since it gives me a certain pleasure to imagine him grinding his teeth in frustration at the fact that he can't find any of my fanfic to attack in retaliation for my outing him. :)

Annoyed, but not hurt; my feelings are pretty tough - tougher than many, I might add, which is why I would certainly appreciate a little more consideration, just as a general courtesy.

You're right, too - this conversation ought to stop here. Maybe I shouldn't even post this; I may regret it. Still, I won't post on this thread again - promise. I've said my pieec.

Okay, thank you!

Is it too late for me to volunteer? My email's rsvampiress @ aim. com , also minus spaces.

Most of the members are also members of other Departments. I asked because looking at the PPC Information Directory site, it appears that most or even all of the Agents listed are no longer active.

Since no one else has replied here, I'll offer my services, but I can only beta for technical errors- I'm not familiar with the Undergrads canon.

Err, sorry if I should have asked somewhere else, but what's the Dept. of Character Protective Services?

Glad to see you're not yet dead.

I was on vacation, but I'm still alive. I'm doing science, and I'm still alive. While you're dying I'll be still alive... Oops, sorry about that.

So yeah, summer vacation does murder on my forum attendance. I just wanted to say that since the vacation is coming to an end, I'll be back here to spread witty sarcasm and odd opinions.

1. I will not tell the Doctor to "get over it, you've killed lots of women."
   --Or Angel.
   --Or any semi-imortal canon with a penchant for killing people.
   --Seriously, they have a reason to angst.
   
   807. I will not introduce Ned from Pushing Daisies to George from Dead Like Me.
   --Or Rube.
   --Or Mason.
   --Or any Grim Reaper.
   --Even if I want to find out what happens when he touches them.

He just lost a good portion of his fics, including the two that I reviewed/flamed. Let's see what happens to the last nineteen.

Would definitely say expand it. And then post it.

Baiting and switching is NOT cool.

Even if he is a plagiarizing jerk, it does NOT mean that ANYONE has the right to troll him.

Cos.

Y'know.

Trolling is bad.

Also, I'd be really disappointed that another PPCer would think of doing something like this and try to carry it out.

...if there's an Orchestra, why not some sort of ballet/dance company?

The amount of Agents who can dance credibly might be small, but shove them into the corps de ballet, find a couple who are pretty talented to dance as soloists, and you've got instant ballet.

And, of course, the Orchestra would provide their music. :P

The PPC Dance Ensemble, or whatever it would be called, would have such gems in their repertoire as "Sue Lake," the tragic tale of an Agent, cursed to be a 'Sue, and her ex-partner, who predictably winds up hunting Sues in the same area. Also included is the shapeshifter!Sue Odile, who mimics the cursed Agent to attempt to trap the ex-partner.

Another possibility is "The Sue-cracker," a story about a young girl who has always dreamed of becoming a PPC agent when she grows up. One night, she has an incredibly realistic dream about the toy she got for Christmas - a sort of humanoid automaton designed to pursue 'Sues, perhaps? - becoming life-sized, and she grows to become the Agent she might someday be. They then proceed to take a mystical journey through several canons, eliminating a few 'Sues on the way. The canon characters thank them by means of an entertaining dance before sending them on their way.

...and so on. I was in dance class today and these gems popped up while I was really supposed to be paying attention. It would be a shame to let them go to waste.

Dunno how viable an idea this is - I mean, it would require actual spare time - but hey, what the heck.

If someone had Henry VIII, for example, regretting divorcing Catherine of Aragon, the CRD would get involved.

Now to find people to cover the rest of the world

My agent is in what often seems like the ultimate history-muck-up fandom around, so I'll stick her in. Eni'll work Ancient Chinese history (and anything else I know something about) if needed.

I'm not concerned especially for your feelings right now, since it's pretty obvious that you can stand up for yourself and your opinion without getting especially hurt by disagreement.

It's the people who are not replying to this because they don't want to get hurt in the process, or people like Sedri who have already replied and feel hurt, that I'm concerned about right now.

And no one was really going to tell you "Shut up, we don't care for this topic anymore", because for one, we're polite, and two, most of us are still willing to reply.

I'm just saying that maybe this conversation should end for now before too many people get upset. When both sides continuously repeat themselves and neither side is giving in, it's a good time to stop.

I'm not wholly comfortable with any of this just yet. Suffice it to say that I've recieved no flames, just some strange answers. If I can post things without feeling guilty, I will, but I need to sort the data first, which'll take a week or so.
