    The gap of the SCP fandom mostly comes from the fact that SCP is still pretty much presented to the general public in way that doesn't best represent the aims of the SCP Wiki. Ever since Containment Breach reached its peak of popularity, almost every other content creator outside the wiki created projects in way that were consistent with the tone and content of Containment Breach. This pretty much created an image for SCP that makes it look like something consistent and with a specific tone, but the SCP Wiki has evolved to become extremely varied and inconsistent. There's also the fact that quite many people on the SCP Fandom are not really much into reading, not everyone who enjoys watching videos and playing video games about SCP is warrented to spend hours reading documents on the Wiki, written works are not quite the most popular form of media nowadays.

    I joined the site years ago, go on it every now and then, when I heard of the bright situation and the poll I purposely decided not to vote, namely because it didn’t effect me if it stays or went.
    Am I sad it’s gone? For the humor yes, and it probably should have been changed to What Doctor *insert name here* can’t do or something BECAUSE it, to me, was funny. However am I sad to see it go? Not really, because I understand WHY it was removed.

    no matter the fanbase, or the media, or the whatever it is. there will always be a divide. even in some of the more civil fanbases.
    I didn't participate in the site vote, because i'm both too young to do anything except read the articles on the site and i could not for the life of me figure out my account password, but i can absolutely imagine the folks in the fandom who were off-site complaining over the removal of the Bright list--something that was possibly able to be changed by them--yet refused to do anything about it when the vote happened was absurd. personally i think it was a good decision to remove it, rather than replace the names or wording. sometimes it's better to remove things related to not-so-good people than to change those things to fit a newer concept.

    I've pretty much stopped engaging with the actual SCP site itself. I have around two authors I regularly engage with Djkactus and Rounderhouse. After that nothing, and after perusing the site and its and its occupants I have found many of them to be up there own collective asses.
    Like a human reverse ouroborous. Not to say there isn't cool people or that there aren't other authors that I occasionally really like but I've found personally that SCP offsite to be a far more pleasant experience. RUclips for me has been The place to go for SCP as well as other sites. Hell even reddit and the Chans have had more interesting conversations about SCP then the site itself. And that's besides the nepotism and general smugness and corruption that I hear about the on sites.
    Hell at this point even the RPC is more tolerable at least when they act like shits its because that's half the point.
    I still point people towards SCP but I also tell them
    " read the article and go."
    There's very few people worth talking to.
    If you have a thick skin and a knack for shitposting join RPC, if not or if you simply wish to stay true to SCP join an offsite many are great find one that works for you. The lore you like is by definition malleable and nothings truly Canon. If you liked older SCPs or think the rewrites for others are dumb then join a group who also agrees. Chances are on the on-site if you voice those kind of opinions then you'll get nothing but scorn and condescension.

Him asking for nudes wasn't the only bit, if memory serves. I remember spending a significant portion of an afternoon trying to join only to be met with frustration and eventually deciding this was not a group of people I wanted anything to do with. I want to say 2011 or 2012. I lurked in the chat room. I did what was advised I do at the time to join. Then I'd consider what people were actually taking the time to comment to each other on articles (again, at the time). It all seemed ridiculous and cultish to have to go through for a vote. I hope things are different and listening to you, it sounds like they might be. As you can tell, the whole thing left a sour taste in my mouth.

    I think your misunderstanding the free speech point
    Firstly we are talking about the principle of free speech that you should be able to say things without major consequences from those in power
    The difference from the shut up case is the person telling you to shut up is not in power all they have is there word that your free to ignore. If a site admin dose it with admin powers then they are in power and ought use the principle of free speech when exercising that power

    • @videocrowsnest5251
      @videocrowsnest5251 Год назад

      The problem here is that the principle of free speech only exists as a ghost in the online space, so ergo, it does not really exist online. Every website is set up more or less as someone's property (there is always an admin, or a group with keys to the control box), and sites are always registered to be owned by someone, who pays the bills. Beyond that, let's say that someone is talking completely openly hateful things on a website. Why should the owner of said property not be allowed to boot the person out ala "get off my property!"? You in general for most sites need to really cross the line to get the boot, and they have da rules which you agree to in order to keep hanging out in the tree house. There is no real other way to police the matter currently either, cause I don't think anyone is jumping for joy to harvest more tax money to set up a cybercop squad with their own judge just to get "Jimborgster_51" banned from Reddit for posting hateful content again.

    The problem is it's the vocal minority that keeps screaming on the wiki. The vocal minority that infects everything. We all know who that group of people are. But we remember our roots and where we came from. You can try to remove Dr Bright from the foundation wiki but you can't remove the SCP foundation from Dr Bright. He will forever be a core part of SCP lore. The series 1 and 2 articles are what makes the SCP foundation great. Now it's all about these authors trying to tell a grand universe in story and then shove it into an SCP article which that is against what the SCP wiki is supposed to be. Take almost anything from what has been dubbed the kaktusverse. I absolutely hate almost every single one of those articles related to that. The reason for my hatred is because it goes against everything the SCP foundation wiki is supposed to have for its SCP articles. The kaktusverse gives an explanation for the anomalies and how they were created, explains very little about how the foundation actually contains this basically DnD universe inside their own universe, and it's mostly written like an SCP tail or story instead of an article. So all these new writers could seriously go away. Bring back the old 4chan writers, we need them back and now. Until then I will write a script just to replace whatever that new doctor's name is that you and that other writer said would be replacing Dr Bright to replace his name with Dr Bright's name.

      I also don't think it or any of the early articles should be rewritten just because they're not up to standard by that logic all sci-fi books from the 50s should be burnt because they're not up to the modern standards of sci-fi.

      But I think outright rewriting them without the author wanting to do so is... dishonest? I don't know if that's the right word but I think I got my point across.
      (Also I just realized you might've not meant for the rewriting bit to come off as forceful as it did to me so I'm sorry if I misinterpreted that

      I think a lot of series 1 articles should be expanded in other articles where the things that does not make sense in the original get explored such as in scp 6820

      The quality of writers is definitely dwindling, and I'm not a series one fanboy either

      ​@@optimuswarcrimes1178 If there is one thing the SCP community DOES do universally is pretend like the quality of articles is dropping when it's not their favorite SCP or canon or format of article when the amount of and quality of writers has only ever gone up.
      That's the main reason I don't interact with the fandom, not because y'all argue everything, but because y'all have pretentious tastes and lazer focus bias with rose colored glasses.
      I can just read the shit myself and not listen to whining.
