I just discovered that someone using BlackAeronaut's account on the Fenspace Wiki has posted a page containing 300K of what looks like link spam, including some very suspicious-looking links at the back end.  It definitely doesn't belong on the site, and I have concerns that his account may be compromised.

Since I have the privileges to do so, I'm going to temporarily block BA's account; I will also delete the page in a few hours -- it's been there since 3/11, it's not going to hurt to leave it up long enough for someone else to look at it and tell me that I'm off base about it (as unlikely as I suspect that to be).

I wasn't sure if there was a thread for people's writings that were KanriKyara related, so now I made this. Speaking of which, here's something I wrote (My self insert. take it or leave it, Bob ) 

Raven stepped off the plane, stretching his hands behind him.
“It’s nice to be back in SoCal… ok I barely remember living here, but it’s still nice…” he said, quietly groaning in pleasure as his muscles stretched out. His bones creaked. It hadn’t been a particularly long flight, but it was still enough to make his legs fall asleep.
“I wonder what shenanigans I’m going to get up to while I’m here…” he thought as he walked into the airport proper. He picked up his bags, then set out for Rutgers University.
The ride down to the dormitories in the Uber was quiet. Lines of trees blurred past him, and it put a smile on his face. He had always liked the natural world. Besides, seeing so much green was really nice when he compared it to Arizona, with its rocky greys and browns, and small, compact trees struggling to survive. Here, though, trees grew tall and proud, a stark difference to what he was used to. It was a nice difference though, and he appreciated it. It was a good change.
The car stopped about 20 minutes later. Raven ducked his head out of the car and took his bag from the trunk. He thanked the driver, and tipped him too. Then he ran a hand through his hair as he looked up at the building in front of him. A gust of wind swirled around his body, lightly chilling him. Douglas Garden, a place that had recently had a large uptick in tenants for no apparent reason. A sly grin creeped up his face. This was going to be fun.
Raven stretched after knocking on the door. A man, maybe late thirties, early forties, opened the door. Raven plastered on his “I love people” smile and stuck his thumbs in his pockets.
“Hello! My name is Raven, it’s a pleasure to meet you! Well, it’s not my given name, but here…” he said while he pulled some papers from his bag and handed them to the older man.
“Well, it’s nice to meet you Raven, we’re glad to have you here. Welcome to Douglas Garden, my name is Bob Shroeck, but you can just call me Bob, I suppose,” Bob said in response as he took the papers. Raven stood expectantly. Bob raised an eyebrow looking at the papers. An awkward silence ensued.
“Errrm… can I live here?” Raven asked in an attempt to break the silence. Bob jumped slightly, but smiled.
“Yes, you may. Come in, come in, we’ll just get the tenant contract ready and you’ll be good to go,” he said, waving Raven in. Raven let out a sigh of relief.
‘Well, I’m certainly glad that’s over..’ he thought before following his new landlord into the main office.
The contract signing was anticlimactic. Just a couple of scribbles later, plus a handshake, and he was officially a tenant of Douglas Garden.

Looney Toons gets caught in an arcade game, in Dig Doug.

(I never said it was a good title...)

Because sometimes you just need an ally team for over 16 minutes.

Assuming, of course, that Doug doesn't hear this one until after DW XII.

I don't keep track of such numbers usually, but that's like four times as many registered users as there are total. Did we get slashdotted or something?

Preferably a punny name. Definitely a short name.

I had come up with "Just Desserts"... but today I learned that that's a real cake bakery in San Francisco. It's almost as old as I am. So... no good for the story.

Any ideas for a replacement?

Ok, I'm just curious, how in the world would you edit your profile? I cannot find the button.

It's not dead yet...

Review at The Register

(This is a ".0" release, so I won't be grabbing it, preferring to wait for the ".1" release and let other folks find the less-obvious glitches. YMMV.)

Hey yall finally figured out how to make a post, so im just gonna say that you can find my fan fics under AvrosRaven on AO3, I currently have 3 up, 1 is complete work (Albeit very short), and the other two are unfinished. Im working on a fourth in conjunction with the other im working on. now, for descriptions


Isekai'd to the West: Ordinary girl gets isekai'd to the American Wild West (using my terrible geography knowledge), where she meets two new friends and sees some very recognizable anime and manga characters (at least to her). Currently finished with the first little arc (about 10k words). Working on arc 2 now.

A Ranma Self Insert fic, why not: about as chaotic as it sounds, its mostly my "get the funky writing brain cells out now so we can do other writing later" and its somehow kinda evolved into something really oddly convoluted. if it makes no sense, its kinda on purpose. also, fair warning, lots of cursing and language.

Steris Ladrian vs. The Advertising Robots: A quick 400 word fic that i wrote when a friend of mine on a discord server (17th shard, actually, im a brando sando nerd) was complaining about getting these spam bots in the comments of her fics that she'd posted. so i did this in honor of that and hopefully to cheer them up. 

Inuyasha: Path of Light: Ok, this one isnt up on AO3 yet, and im still working on the first chapter, but its recently broken 1k (yay!) and its a question of "what if Naraku had a redemption arc?" (more specifically Onigumo, the human that kinda kept Naraku together) Ive always loved Inuyasha since i started it, and Naraku is just such an interesting character. He's a total mad lad, and its wonderful. this story will follow the canon fairly tightly. Or at least as well as I can remember.

yup! thats all of them! If i end up writing anymore fics, ill let you guys know.
