The PPC Roleplay Board - Latest posts

that binservices is a sockpuppet email account? I'm a complete noob with all of this, but I just thought that maybe someone created the binservices account just to spam.

I'm probably adding 2+2 and getting 60 or something, but I just thought I'd add what I think. Of course, it doesn't explain binservices being on signupforspam.com.

Would it be advisable for someone to email binservices and tell them what's going on?

I do love the problems certain female students are having.

And I see blue. So perhaps that's it.

I was looking for an excuse to avoid important things for a while longer. Thanks. ^_~

That site seems to be one where people post the email addresses of people they want to get spammed (it's been down for a couple of days, btw). I noticed yesterday that binservices was there. Someone's clearly pissed at them. Whether that somebody is our board flooder, someone else who got targeted in some way by the flooder, or someone else who has an unrelated grudge against binservices, though, is impossible to determine. There have been some spam-bait posts on Usenet using the binservices email as well.

I can't find the pattern here, and it's annoying me.

If I ever got popular I fear that my characters would be 'shipped incessantly and without regard to their actual preferences (or lack thereof). A couple of them wouldn't mind, but that's beside the point. The worst things is that "daughter of" Sues would be plausible for those same characters, because they live in a setting without birth control as we know it and they don't really care, either.

I guess I'd be more amused than annoyed most of the time. Legendary Badfic WOULD make me upset at the stupidity--I'd like to think I would attract intelligent readers, and I would be disappointed to find otherwise. As other people have pointed out, though, actually reading fanfic of my books is probably a no-no. I might do moderated chats and interviews to try and keep a handle on things, though. If the PPC wanted to interview me, well, that would be sweet. I'd trust them to ask all the right questions. {= )

Honestly, though, I don't even know if I want to be that popular. Published, yes, but I'd be very happy with a small body of dedicated readers. Much less BS that way.

... My work can get hugely popular after I die. That would be cool.

~Neshomeh, who thinks the "real world" is big and scary and doesn't want much to do with it most days.

I would like to ride on its back into the wild blue yonder.

We would blend in, see.

I like the drawing. It looks so gleeful!

No worries; I didn't know about the livejournal account. Hooray team Internet Ignorant Bliss!

Clearly you are my put through the looking-glass and we need to go on an adventure to solve this problem. ;)

If someone is out looking for trouble, they'll find it - this time they found us. It happens to every internet community, the only difference is we aren't quite as prepared as most.

We'll deal with this thing, we've done it before.

In the text of the search result, it even lists the exact address we've been spammed with.

...but I found something very strange while Googling for answers. I'm not techno savvy enough to really help out, so I went about looking in my own way. Namely, I Googled the phrases binservices spambot, and got one hit. A site called Sign Up 4 Spam. I don't know if this is relevant or not, since I could not load the page, but to me it seemed extremely suspicious.

That might be it.

If you read any one of the spam messages, you'll notice something along the lines of "hey i luv it send me ypur pics." When the first spam appeared, I promptly decided that a ypur sounded like a sort of yakkish blue furry animal that liked to eat sausages and had uberspiky horns. Lycaenion even drew a picture. http://manxandshadow.deviantart.com/art/The-Mighty-Ypur-94127672

LIVE WITH IT.

Read the flipping books.

To the PPCers:

Rock on.

Would you mind killing these, as well? shoves links

Love,

The Author.

(Except I heard somewhere that authors can't read fanfic for legal reasons. I guess I'll just convince someone else to read it for me. ^_^)

Most of us have made NM & NMs at some point, Makari. It's a rite of passage.

Have some urple ones--I only like the wilver.

I'd be a hypocrite if I denounced it, seeing how much fanfic I read and write. Although I don't think legally I'd be allowed to read it, because then there's the risk that some fanbrat would accuse me of plagiarism, but I'd read it secretly. And clandestinely nudge my PPC friends to please take care of any badfic.

I would be thrilled that enough people read my stuff that there was fic for it.

Thank you, people!

From the Wiki, they would be able to find the address of the Board.

But these were Suethors who had responded nicely to my concrit and asked for help improving their work--not the sort I'd expect to be behind a vicious spam attack.

But anyone who Googles "PPC" can find Miss Cam's website, which links to the Board.

MINE! Misses and falls into the stampede of Ypurs
I've been looking for a Pokemon fic to PPC / MST. It's one of my favourite fandoms, and so is Digimon. Sighs.

ANywho, Pulls out spork

Enjoy. Sorry it's late.

It's an old Pokemon/Digimon crossover badfic.

PS: I've just discovered that the Urban myth about Digimon being older than Pokemon is just that-an Urban myth. See here for details:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Digimon.
Since the Urban myth has been gospel truth to me for about five years, I feel...shattered. Yes, I know it's immature, but I just can't help it. Can someone please tell me that all i'm seeing is just vandalism or false assumption? I'm just not ready to go past the denail stage yet.

Another PS: I've left fandoms for less. I hope I won't have to leave this one. It's been so important to me!

Yet Another PS: Sorry for any errors in grammar.

I'd totally PPC it. I'd find doing so hilarious.

I'd also probably create a sockpuppet account and post AUs on what was going to happen if it was a series and then put in the disclaimer [X Universe] DOES belong to me! Ahahahaha! Just because I get bored of reading [X Universe] doesn't belong to me. BAWWW.

Besides which, I doubt it is your fault. If someone approached me for an internet interview (hey, alliteration! :D) I wouldn't think to google their penname. I'd just sit down and do the questions, and tell them if teir was something I found offensive.

Besides which, you're not getting spam on your LJ account, so I doubt it's them. I might be demonstrating my complete naivety on the minds of badficcers here, but I don't think that it's your fault. Partly because I doubt they'd be this dedicated.
