Disciplinary - Joe Farnac

Zyn 02 Mar 2025 19:59

Noting that new site member Joe Farnac (account age 6 days, site membership 1 day) recently spammed four low-quality pages, all of which did not have proper formatting, all of which were unfinished at initial posting, in the same about-5-hour time window yesterday:

When asked about the foundation.

Details: Scp-8337 is a humanoid creature that is reported to be 8 ft tall weighing 500 pounds and lacks proper eye tracking. Often seen admiring the sun by cliff side at Site 39G. If Scp-8337
spots you or you get within 20 ft from Scp, It will chase you down until you die from exhaustion/dehydration. Scp-8337 is reported to run 6 mph which is used to tire its prey out before killing it.

Containment Procedures: Scp-8337 is required to be sealed in a 2x4 square cell with walls required to be 6 ft thick in all directions to avoid breeches.

1 Mar 2025 - 13:23:49 https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8178 (53 author revisions)

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-8178 must be kept in a large wooden cell that hums at a constant frequency. The cell must be 10 ft wide by 10 ft long to avoid breeches by SCP-8178.
Workers must keep guard of the cell for 5 hours each day (regulation).

Dr ████ ███. Upon walking into the room with SCP-8178 inside, you will hear a mysterious voice

Comments of note:

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-227756/scp-096#post-6840536

I actually made a fan-based version on this Scp, it is the complete opposite of 096.

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17054335/scp-8337#post-6840531

It is supposed to be inspired off of Scp-096 but it is a bit different than Scp-096. I made it so if it sees you it will kill you and it also needs to be in the heat and needs to lack a significant other.

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17054335/scp-8337#post-6840566

As it says on the page it is let outside for 10 minuets a day, the cell is 2 feet wide by 4 feet long. the scientists running tests on the cell know why but the guards or any body else who is not a scientist do not know why. It is a fictional place and is not going to make sense. But I can change the material of the cell if you want me to.

I am also dyslexic and I mass up typing sometimes.

Yes it is

Received the following reply to the revoke message:

Hey, I am very sorry about the unfinished work. I was getting used to the site and I did not know that was happening. I would like my membership back and I promise that wont happen again.

Sent back:

Please follow the instructions on the Join the Site page to remove the previous application from your wikidot messages center, and then you can submit a new application to rejoin the site.

Their reply:

OK, thanks for helping me out

Re-applied, rejoined site.

Noting that yesterday they coldposted the following page: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8982 which included an image from a site that took the file from Getty Images.

Description: SCP-8982 is a 20x20 patch of grass that contains an anomalous property known as █████ ████. Upon interaction with SCP-8982, through walking on or coming into contact with its surface, an individual will begin to regress physically in age at a rate of three years per minute. The regression will continue until the individual reaches a state of biological immaturity, ultimately causing the cessation of life as they are reduced to the state of a human egg cell.

Scientists continue to investigate the underlying causation of the properties of SCP-8982, with potential links to temporal mechanics and biological entropy theory. The health of SCP-8982 needs to be strictly monitored and regular environmental testing is key to ascertaining its long-term effects, as any abnormality in behavior or properties will be noted and investigated immediately.

Addendum: Further interviews have been done with SCP-8982. Dr. P███ ████ Is due to interview SCP-8982 as of ██/██/████ so we are waiting for that to commence. But we will have Sani Beugenhoff interviewing SCP as of right now.

The user also replied twice to staff deletion vote posts:

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17057365/scp-8982#post-6847507

Wada you mean by 2?

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17057365/scp-8982#post-6847576 (reply to post including, "First of all, please don't respond to closed staff posts. (See the bold text?)")

Ok I understand

Today they coldposted this page, which has some indicators of AI-generation as well: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8944

Conclusion: All this long-winded talk serves to point to the significance of SCP-8944 and how it relates to our own existence. Its embracement of interdependence and coexistence requires caution and respect for interaction in the future. What is revealed here only confirms the need to respect cautious boundaries while we explore the boundaries of comprehension.

As they have continued spamming the site with AI-generated material, I have enacted an emergency yearlong ban. User has been PMed, an appeal is available to them. ETA: Queerious supported ban.

Received the following response to the ban PM:

Okay I got BANNED for using AI! I for one, am against AI. I hate how people are all for AI and want to use it for there websites. My collage professor told me once, "you write like AI". It is not my fault my writing sounds like AI, I am banned from other sites because of my writing style. I feel like this is sort of discriminatory.

Sent back:

Okay I got BANNED for using AI!

Per the previous message, the ban was issued because you continued to spam coldposted material including AI-generated content to the mainsite after being revoked.

It is not my fault my writing sounds like AI

Can you explain why your recently submitted SCP-8944 contains an extraneous subheading section only found in AI-generated formats (and not the template in the How to Write an SCP Guide), and why the tone and word choice differ extremely between the description section and interview section in SCP-8982?

I feel like this is sort of discriminatory.

Per the previous message, if you wish to appeal for the ban to be lifted or shortened, you may do so in the official Discord: https://discord.com/invite/scp or the IRC help chat: http://scp-sandbox-3.wikidot.com/chat-guide

Re: Disciplinary - Joe Farnac

Zyn 08 Mar 2025 07:18

Received the following PMs:

The reason it has that sub heading section is because I felt that it would look more professional and unique than just using the normal format. I also put a lot of detail in those interviews to make them feel as immersive as possible. I would like the ban lifted, but if you feel it is the best choice, so let it be.

4 minutes later:

Also, why did the ban global ban me?

I sent back:

To confirm, this is the entirety of the appeal you wish to submit to staff for review?

Also, why did the ban global ban me?

I'm not sure what you mean here. A standard ban from any wikidot site restricts access and viewing ability. What further restrictions are you experiencing?

Received this reply:

I don't know if it is a glitch or not but when I got banned it also banned me from other sites I am a loyal member or moderator of.
That is the reason I am trying to get un-banned.

Sent back:

Bans localized to one wiki website do not automatically carry over to other sites; the SCP wiki does not have any control over the banning process of unaffiliated wikis. This is something you would need to contact the Wikidot staff (the hosting service) about.

Ok, but who should I contact, because I want to get this bug fixed.

You can try asking for assistance in the wikidot community forums here: http://community.wikidot.com/

Thank you! :)

Received this today:

Can you just un-ban me from the SCP-Foundation? I tried EVERYTHING to fix the global ban problem and nothing is working. Even the people on the wiki-dot site have no clue what is going on. So at this point I just want to get un-banned so I can fix the glitch. I don't care to be a server member anymore, just tell whoever is running the sever member thing not to accept Joe Farnac's requests. I just want to be able to use the old websites I was a member on again.

Sent back:

No.

If you would like to appeal for the ban to be shortened or lifted, you need to submit the appeal text to a staff member. I have asked you previously if the messages you sent earlier were the full appeal you wished to submit.

I tried EVERYTHING to fix the global ban problem and nothing is working. Even the people on the wiki-dot site have no clue what is going on.

I don't see any messages from you in the wikidot community forums. Can you provide a link to the thread where you raised this issue to the wikidot staff?

I don't care to be a server member anymore, just tell whoever is running the sever member thing not to accept Joe Farnac's requests.

The SCP wiki is a wikidot website, not a server.

I just want to be able to use the old websites I was a member on again.

Again, the SCP wiki has no association with your personal wikidot sites, and as such no authority over any bans enacted on your account on those sites.

I don't think it makes sense to continue to engage with this user. We've banned them from our site; anything else is on them to deal with. (Also, I see that they've contributed to two non-SCP Wikidot sites and are still listed as administrator of both.)
