I got another spam comment today on AO3, and I want to share it as a PSA. But before I do, I want you to understand that you SHOULD NOT DO what this comment is asking. Ok? Ok.

See that bit at the bottom? Don't do that. Insert ParamedicGuy.gif going "Don't."

Other malicious spam comments I've gotten seemed designed to make an author question their writing, or outright encourage them to delete their stories from AO3. This one is different, in that it tries to get you to destroy the work on your own computer.

If you ran that command, it basically locates your Documents folder, then deletes everything in it, including all subfolders. It also does it without any prompt, so you have no chance to second guess your actions.

This is just fucking trolling.

Coincidentally, we just did training on a cyberattack similar to this, called a ClickFix attack. You can read about how that works here.

As a general rule, if ANYONE or ANY WEBSITE tells you unsolicited* to do anything in Powershell, CMD RUN, command prompt, shell command, or something similar, DON'T.

*There are legit reasons for running commands in PowerShell or the command prompt, but in those cases you are likely seeking out a solution to a problem you are already experiencing. Don't just run random commands on your computer as recommended by some unlogged-in guest on a fan fiction site.

Always think and consider before taking action, and get a second opinion from a trusted source. When I got this comment I was pretty sure what the command would do, and it took me about three seconds of googling to confirm it.

Be safe out there!

This isn't just trolling. Nor is it a simple malicious attack to fuck with authors.

All of these things, starting with making people delete their stories from AO3 to now this, are all specifically designed to kill any digital paper trail so people can steal and make money off your fanfictions by just scrubbing the serial numbers off (and probably training AI on them).

These scammers have realized that even if people delete the stories off of AO3, authors can still prove that they are the original owner of the story by having locally stored documents that prove when the story was originally written.

That said: I want to impress on people once again to never EVER run any commands on your PC unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing! ESPECIALLY not if it's just a rando on the internet telling you to.

"If you ran that command, it basically locates your Documents folder, then deletes everything in it, including all subfolders. It also does it without any prompt, so you have no chance to second guess your actions."

Sorry, but that isn´t just trolling. This is a command that could VERY EASILY ruin a person´s life if they don´t second guess it. It is malicious and irreversible unless you have every single thing backed up elsewhere (some people have backups for important stuff but not everything and most people might not even have backups for all of the important things)

so no, this is not just trolling, this is a targeted, malicious attack on ao3 writers, especially younger and less tech savvy ones who might actually run the command.

Sequential screencap study. Guys, I… I just love them so much ok.

[littlecello]

SCREENCAP STUDIES!!!

At the top are studies I did just the other day, to finish a spread which I had started in 2020 while working on my zine, and never posted because I a) wasn't totally happy with how the studies turned out and b) I wanted to finish the spread... which I only just did fhdsjkg. It was really fun though and I was so please to realise that I wasn't as out of practice as I feared I would be :')

I also realise that a lot of you newer fans might not know what the file names next to each drawing refer to, so here you go:

[ cap-that.com ] screencap archive

All screenshots that I have saved to my computer and use as reference for these studies are from cap-that, which, incredibly, is being kept up to date to this day! A fantastic resource, so make sure you bookmark it~

Ooh interesting!

[littlecello]

This is the Daily Mail, a gossip rag. Don't believe what it says.

Even if it's true, and that's a MASSIVE if, just... please don't support this. I've heard the pilot script. I've seen how the show-runners talk about the show and the fans. They don't understand what kind of show it was they made in the first place.

Please just protect what you love about this show and cut the show-runners out of your love, they don't deserve it.

I know it was supposed to be a stupid comedy side plot, but Chris dropping everything to quit smoking- which he is so addicted to- at the mere suggestion that it would improve his chance at giving Shaz kids- before they've even seriously discussed it together- is so precious. Like realistically Chris has never thought seriously about having kids before that point, but the moment he encounters the prospect he instantly makes a huge sacrifice for the good of his future, completely hypothetical unborn children. We mostly see how his unthinking, uncritical loyalty is a bad thing, but I think fatherhood could probably be the one area where his unwavering, unconditional devotion is a positive, and also a healthy outlet for it. Although yes, this example does also demonstrate his tendency to overcompensate and 'punish' himself for his perceived flaws, and I do think his greatest hurdle to overcome as a parent would be his own (irrational) insecurities about being a 'bad father' rather than the commitment or responsibility. Basically this stupid c plot actually tells us a lot about Chris and gives a glimpse into his future as a dad, and it makes me desperately unhappy that he never got to be one.
