Aren’t you a creek fan? All I hear is kyman kyman kyman. Nasty! Yuck!
Creek is A+ 100% amazing.
i'm pretty sure you're the biggest kyman fan so I am confused by your disgust! It's ok, I'm sure we can draw you some fan art later to make you feel better 💙💚
When I was a kid, I used to go into stores like Office Max and Staples and get really inspired by empty binders and page protectors. I would think of writing a story or drawing a comic or something and print it out. I thought about putting the pages in the page protectors, drawing something for the front window, and having my own physical copy of something I made.
Fast forward a lot of years (lol) and I did just that. During the lockdowns, I bought a laser printer and printed out my first ever completed multi chapter fanfic and put it in a 3 ring binder with page protectors. It sits on my shelf and gathers dust, but it makes me happy.
But now - I have learned how to format content for physical printing that is super legit. After successfully printing our zine in the server last year, to a fun coloring book we made, to now the zines that we are selling this year out to the public, I have learned a lot about physical media, logistics, and the ability to create whatever the heck you envision.
It's opening my eyes to even more potential future ideas - to what we can truly be capable of when we have that vision and that passion for our hobbies.
We are in the preorders for the Eavesdropper physical fan zine! Thanks to all who have shared our posts and have already purchased their copies! Preorders are open until November 26th! Get yours while you can! https://spcreekserver.bigcartel.com/
We would also like to take the time to give a shout out to the amazing contributors of the zine - the lovely members of the sp creek server who put in their time and efforts to help create a project that we are all proud of. The zine is a collaborative effort, and a labor of love from all who contributed.

We hope you enjoy the zine! And thanks to everyone for their support!
aight. here's the skinny, kids. truly idgaf about petty drama shit. i've spent more than six months on the internet and been involved in more fandoms than I can count. ive waded through more than my fair share of bs shipping debates, "cancel culture", "we like different shit but my shit's better than urs" every fuckin thing u can imagine i've seen it all. and u know, more power to u if u have the time and energy to dedicate to something that ultimately has far less meaning than u think it does.what i do care about, and what u all should also care about, is genuine harassment in the form of death threats. i'll repeat that b/c that's how important i feel this message is. i'll even do u a favor and go all caps for u.
HARASSMENT. AND. DEATH. THREATS.
no one gives a shit if u have friends. no one cares one fuckin iota if ur lil sycophant minions crawl out of the woodwork to defend u. ur not the victim. u can bitch and moan until u turn blue but if u send someone messages wishing for them to die, by either their own hand or ur ever so fuckin "helpful" assistance, ur a piece of shit and uve lost all moral highground. continuing to attack the true sufferer of this shit and ignoring the real issue at hand is equivalent to u essentially saying that u think ur hurt feelings take priority over a literal crime of threatening someone else's life.
let me be clear. i'm not out to start a war b/c i got no time for that shit. im not even associated with any of these people. but ive personally witnessed too much of this kind of shit in other fandom to remain silent about this this rn. as I stated in my prev post i cannot stop u from purchasing those fan magazines but i STRONGLY urge u to be careful who u blindly trust on the internet.
fyi ive created a twt acct and will be posting there as well. peace love & a pleasant day to u all.
Xenolith1245, if you are the person cyberbullying me, please stop.
TW: death threats, suicide bait, general unpleasantness
(Link to supporting evidence - I'm putting this at the top so it doesn't get lost.)
First off, I want to apologize and make it very clear that this is a post I do not want to make, have never wanted to make, and will never want to make again. I am not a dramatic person by nature, and while this goes against everything I am, I do not feel like I have any choices left. Xenolith1245 (aka Xeno, aka the owner of the spcreekserver Discord) has blocked me on every channel available and given the escalation of the things that have happened, I can’t just sit back and be quiet anymore.
Second, and very important, I need to stress that everything I say is accompanied by the caveat that these allegations are just that, alleged. As implied in the post title, I do not know for certain that Xeno is behind the things that I am experiencing, but I feel that there is enough circumstantial evidence in my possession that the possibility is a reasonable one. But I want to be very clear: I am not out to ruin someone’s life, nor am I trying to chase anyone out of the South Park fandom. I do not care who is in the South Park fandom. I’ve been here since 2008 when it was much smaller, and I will always support it and the people in it as much as I can. All I want is for the bullying, the hate comments, and the death threats to stop.
AGAIN, VERY SIMPLY:
What this post IS: a callout, or more accurately a plea, for whoever has been sending me death threats to knock it off. There are reasons to believe it is Xeno, which I will go over plus provide the circumstantial evidence that I have.
What this post IS NOT: an unwarranted, aggressive, unsubstantiated attack on Xeno with the intent of getting her to leave the fandom.
I’m going to start with the death threats/suicide bait comments for obvious reasons. As of today, March 29th, 2022, I have received multiple anonymous asks through Tumblr, as well as multiple comments on my fics on AO3 Wrong Number, You’re My Number One, Well, In That Case…, First Time For Everything and Right Intentions of varying degrees of harassment. The most recent Tumblr ask was a broken up Youtube link that linked to the Police song “Every Breath You Take” which in light of EVERYTHING ELSE is very scary and concerning.
Some of these asks/comments have been removed by the platform, but I have screenshots of them that I took, just in case events escalated and I needed them, due to the nature of them. I myself did not respond to or remove any comments from any of my fics because I did not want to engage with whoever was doing them either way and I was just trying to move on and pretend they didn’t even exist. I can’t do that anymore.
The most recent ones are the ones that are most concerning to me, but rest assured I do not think ANY of them are okay to say to another person. These are some of the more recent ones.
Recently, because of all of the comments I received prior to the above screenshots, I installed a statcounter on my Tumblr blog. Because of this statcounter, I can see that the dates and times of when someone visited my blog, and the ask box specifically, match the timestamps on the threatening asks. As well, the location tracked by the statcounter is the same area that I know Xeno to live in, and multiple instances, from both my blog’s statcounter and others who also had it installed on theirs, have tracked the same IP address at said location. I will not disclose all of this information, and I DO NOT CONDONE DOXXING OF ANYONE REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE DONE but you can see the similarities in the screenshots below.
I do not have the same IP proof for my fics on AO3. But I do have many screenshots of the anonymous comments, plus some screenshots of Xeno talking in her Discord server, and the language/emojis used in both places is extremely similar and hard to overlook. Words like “gunna” and “what so ever”, which are pretty unique xeno-specific spelling idiosyncrasies, as well as using “lol” in a very passive aggressive manner. The emoji combination of 🤔😆 which are, from my understanding, signature Xeno emojis, especially when used together. The way the sentences are structured and the overall tone of the messages themselves also are very similar to her manner of speaking/typing.
The timing of all of these comments is also very suspicious. I received my first one on July 24th, the same day that Xeno had been harassing me in the server about forgetting to respond to her comment on my fic. This is something Xeno has been known to do to others, and it’s been brushed off as “heckling”, but there were too many instances where what she called “heckling” had very strong undertones of aggression.
After July 24th, the comments stopped until after I left the Creek server on September 6th. I left because of a lot of reasons, the biggest one being my own mental health. I was going through a lot in my personal life, and as Xeno and I were friends (I thought) at the time, I let her know that I was not happy, I was often so stressed out by everything that I was crying every night, and that to try to combat that, I was going to be taking a break from social media, but that I was still going to be writing, because writing was the one thing still making me happy. She assured me that was not a big deal and to take care of myself. I then muted Discord.
Ten days or so later, when I unmuted the app, I found that I had been demoted from mod in the server (a title I did not ask for and in truth did not want, with all my other stress), there were new rules in place (one regarding a purge that I did not like the execution of as it seemed unfair), and that immediately upon going back into the server all my stress came rushing back like it had never left. I determined that the server was what was stressing me out, because of the environment it had become, and I left without a word. It was what I felt I needed to do for my mental health at the time, and I did not think I was in a place where I was up to having a conversation explaining my actions. I at this point had been in a group DM with Xeno and some others, but I was kicked from that upon leaving the server, which was disappointing because I hadn’t assumed my not being in the server included losing a group of friends, but that is apparently how Xeno felt.
I’m including the below screenshot because I think the flip from telling me it’s okay to take a break to treating me like the exact opposite is true is a piece of relevant insight.
For the record, not once after leaving has Xeno reached out to me to find out why. Not that she had to, or should have, I don’t mean to imply that. I just want it to be known that once I left her server, it was as if I ceased to exist entirely, even though I know that she has claimed otherwise to others and in fact continues to talk vaguely about me in a negative light.
I had some other friends who felt similarly, and also left, but I did not at any point TELL anyone else to leave. We are all adults who can make our own adult decisions, and I do not have the power to tell anyone what to do nor do I want it. These friends and I decided to create another, smaller server, so that we could still have a place to hang out and talk and enjoy SP content together. I have heard that it’s been rumored we left and formed a hate server specifically to bash on the Creek server, but that is not and has never been the case.
The hate comments on Wrong Number became more and more constant, appearing on nearly every chapter from 12 to chapter 21. I’ve posted some already but you can see another screenshot below as well as a Tumblr ask with a similar message.
At one point, it came to my knowledge through a credible source that someone had specifically asked Xeno if she was the commenter, and she had said no. I don’t know all of the specifics, but I know that after that happened, the comments stopped for at least a week. I thought that it was over, but it turned out not to be the case, as soon, sure enough, they began to pop up again. They started appearing on other fics of mine, and in one case, a fic I didn’t even write, but that had only mentioned me in the Author’s Note. Again, I’ve shared most of these screenshots at some point above.
Around this time, Xeno, after not speaking to me for months, showed up in my comment replies on chapter 18 of Wrong Number. Her reply was to ambercreek95’s reply to an anon comment, and was all about how she had heard that someone was accusing her of doing this and that it wasn’t her. And I understand someone feeling the need to defend themselves, given the situation, but I always found it weird and a little bit shady that I had been getting these comments for months, and the only time Xeno felt the need to jump in was to defend herself, publicly. It’s the public aspect that concerned me. I was literally getting told to kill myself, and someone who had used to be my friend seemed far more concerned with shouting to the rooftops that, “I DIDN’T DO THIS!!” than anything else. I’m not saying I should have been her first priority, or any priority, it just always struck me as odd. She and a few others from the Creek server then left very insincere and borderline condescending-sounding comments on the next chapter, which also was odd to me, because again, these people hadn’t talked to me in months and didn’t talk to me again after, for the most part, so coming out of nowhere, talking to me like we were friends, only to completely disappear again right after was very strange.
I finished Wrong Number at the end of January, and then earlier this month I began the sequel. I was really excited for the sequel itself because I love writing and the universe I created and because I hadn’t had hate comments or Tumblr asks for a significant period of time, so I thought that it would be safe to start posting again. As I’ve already stated above, that clearly did not happen.
And so we come to this point. The point where I am tired. I just wanted to write. I want to write Craig being a moron without getting told that my writing sucks and I suck and to go die. I want to stop feeling like I did a terrible thing by taking myself out of a space that wasn't making me happy. I want to stop worrying that me just trying to defend myself against literal death threats is going to get people I care about in trouble.
It's Discord, it's South Park, it’s a hobby, it’s for fun. It's not worth any of this.
And whether I know that every message I've gotten has been untrue and likely all talk or not, that doesn't really matter when getting that kind of stuff has been such a constant worry that I just don't know if I should even bother writing anymore. Or if I should even be here, if maybe those suicide bait comments are right in some way and that I did an awful thing and should be punished for it. And that’s a scary thought, but these are the thoughts that eventually come into my head when this has been happening for so long at this point.
Like I said, I'm just tired. I'm tired of this stuff existing in my brain. I'm tired of dealing with all of this and feeling miserable about things when I didn't even really do anything wrong in the first place. I left a Discord server to take care of my mental health and had a hand in creating a new space where I felt better. I’ve been terrified to even write this post because I don’t know what any fallout will entail but at the same time, I don’t know what else to do. I can block and I can turn off anon asks and commenting but that doesn’t change what’s already happened and it doesn’t change that somebody out there felt that it was okay to treat another person this way. And that’s something I can’t understand.
So, one last time. Xeno, if this is you, or if you are involved in some way, please just stop. That’s all I’m asking. I don't care why it's happening, and in truth I don't think anything can justify a death threat, I just want it to stop for good.
psa to let u all know the person in this post is the same person heading up those physical "eavesdropper" creek fan magazines circling around tumblr/twt rn. ur entitled to do w/e u please with ur own money obv but i know id certainly be thinking twice before giving a known fandom bully money or access to any of my personal info. that's just inviting harassment imo. stay safe sp folks
"Inviting harassment" from someone who has not harassed anyone, who has plenty of friends who have never had any sort of problem and has actively had to remove themselves from public fandom spaces because of this outrageous post.
A post may I add which has circumstantial "evidence" at best. Involves an IP address which doesn't match Xeno's (as she's publicly posted hers in response to this) and doesn't actually relate to where she lives.
This isn't a "callout post" apparently but it initiated an active witch hunt against Xeno regardless, with absolutely no attempt to resolve any animosity between groups like calm, rational adults privately.
So sure, I would probably think twice about involving myself in out of context Tumblr posts, where people have made no attempt to even have a conversation with Xeno about their issues. Even when directly asked in DM.
This is tiring. We are all here to enjoy a fandom, can we not just do that without resorting to these petty posts.
I addressed this when it first came out. I was not and will never be the person making these anon comments. The IP Address is not mine. Please see the post I made below
