Hi there! Do you care about artists having a right to their work? Do you care about people being fairly credited and compensated? Then LISTEN UP.

I do not want to see ONE. SINGLE. fan of SCP going to see the V/H/S SCP film. I do not want to see any horror fan going to see it. I do not want anyone who claims they care about artistic integrity to go see this film.

V/H/S Franchise Sets New Roy Lee and Steven Schneider-Produced Movie Based on SCP Foundation Universe (EXCLUSIVE)

Spooky Pictures and Image Nation Studios are producing “V/H/S: SCP,” a full-length feature based on the online SCP Foundation project.

If you're unfamiliar with SCP, it's an online horror fiction collective. The beauty of it is that it's all CC-by-SA-3.0 licensed, so no one person can lay claim to it. A key part of that license is:

ShareAlike — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.

Guess what's fucking that over?

The Wiki's Licensing team was not contacted about this project. I repeat: the Wiki's Licensing team was not contacted about this project.

"But what about Backrooms?" The content for Backrooms was based around Parsons' own series and interpretation aside from the original anonymous post. The Wiki is a collective of hundreds of authors producing original content. It VERY MUCH SEEMS like the people behind this project are about to profit off of basically stealing site members' work. I cannot confirm if authors have been contacted or not, but staff have been totally blindsided. If this film doesn't comply with the SCP Wiki's CC license, there is basically nothing they can do about it. A small horror writing website cannot win a legal battle against these studios.

PLEASE spread the word. I am beyond angry about this.

I'm also tagging @deadmeatjames here real quick because I know you've spoken about this franchise in the past and I am a whole random person online with zero reach.

EDIT: To be crystal clear, this post is not a statement on behalf of Wiki staff or the site as an entity.

EDIT 2: Please do not attempt to contact the film studio on behalf of the Wiki.

Ok I read V6 Alpha, and this is possible the worst system that I even read. DnD + PbTa + Daggerheart + Fate, but no World of Darkness at all. New roll difficulty just not working. Bye bye hecata. You can resist the clan curse why... I'm big V20 fan, and didn't like V5(Played once), but now after v6. Oh gosh v5 is good system. Not my cup of tea, but probably last good whitewolf system, because v6 guys.... It's over....

[tact1calnecr0mancy]

I have a big fucking problem with making dice mechanics based off of abuse, by the way. Fortitude? Why are you making "Omg you're so resilient" a CODIFIED THING in your system?

Other than V6 being a blatant Blades in the Dark rip now (why did you abandon everything good about your dice system? why bother with D10s? are you kidding me?), it has some seriously clumsy sensitivity issues. For a system that prides itself on consent and communication in the sourcebook itself, this is genuinely fucking shameful.

I need y'all to do better. I'm an abuse survivor, if you REALLY need the ethos here. A sloppy "but it makes you stronger! or sneakier! neh!" is disgustingly bad. I thought Sire Types would be related to Kindred mechanics more (like Predator Types were!) but now we have dice mechanics based off of how much of a deadbeat your vampire father was.

What the actual fuck. And Mage + Changeling fans: holy hell, I'm sorry, guys.

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

[alagaisia]

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

[alagaisia]

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

[watermelon-converse]

Hey. Hey. Tumblr. Ides of March ppl. We can do this

Hell yeah moon holiday

Despite attempts to keep low profile, Dracula gets into the news twice in two months (in one of them as a missing dog)

Dracula getting misreported as a dog because English people have never seen a wolf

London newspapers treat Lucy's vampire attacks on children as a meme among kids because they don't believe in vampires

Dracula getting sworn at by a British sailor solely because he thinks Dracula is French

Van Helsing is baffled why British sailors keep talking about blood and bloom (it's swearing)

Van Helsing is friends with real-life turkologist traveler Arminius Vámbéry, who is his source on the Dracula family

Van Helsing is friends with Hans Christian Andersen and references The Ugly Duckling

Van Helsing getting one-upped by Mina Harker every single time he says something sexist about her intelligence
