AI Record - Magnum26

Zoobeeny 03 May 2025 18:23

Noting that new site member Magnum26 (account age 10 days, site membership unknown) recently coldposted the following page, which has multiple indicators of AI-generation: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8382

SCP-8382

[[>]]
[[module Rate]]
[[/>]]
Item #: SCP-8382
Object Class: Euclid/Keter

Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-8382 is contained at Site-⬛⬛⬛⬛ in a 6m × 6m cell designed to hold it. Only personnel with Level 3 or higher clearance are authorized to access the entity, and any interaction requires the presence of two armed agents for security. Surveillance is continuous; in the event of a breach, Protocol Arca is activated. This protocol consists of alerting all agents within a 120m radius to evacuate or attempt recontainment. If the protocol fails, the site must be evacuated, and special forces must be called in for recontainment. The cell is equipped with surveillance cameras and sensors to detect any breach attempt. Its structure is composed of a tungsten-steel alloy.

Description:
SCP-8382 is a humanoid figure standing 2.20m tall and weighing 149kg. Its skin appears to be made of a black, viscous substance of unknown origin that renders it nearly indestructible. It has four eyes; prolonged eye contact leads to memory loss, fainting, and in some cases, heart attacks.

SCP-8382 moves rarely and usually only when unobserved. If damaged, it can regenerate through the viscous substance covering it. It prefers to attack younger humans (ages 23 and under), not for sustenance but seemingly for amusement. At times, it may remain motionless for over a year, after which it becomes aggressive. No tests are permitted during this period without approval from a Level 3 or higher agent.

It possesses immense physical strength, capable of lifting up to 1045kg, and can move at speeds of up to 32km/h. Though it shows little initial interest in others present in its cell, it eventually becomes highly aggressive. In testing, only two individuals were unaffected by its anomalous effects, but both died nine days later from unknown causes.

Addendum 1: Recovery
SCP-8382 was found near a village in the Gennargentu region. It was first sighted by a shepherd who was subsequently attacked. A ⬛⬛⬛⬛ team transported the entity to Site-⬛⬛⬛⬛ for containment. The entity attempted to escape from the helicopter during transport, resulting in the death of Dr. ⬛⬛⬛⬛, but it ultimately failed to escape.

Addendum 2: Test
At 17:49, a Class-D personnel entered SCP-8382’s cell and was instructed to approach the entity. The Class-D began experiencing memory loss and, after 38 minutes, fainted for 7 minutes. Upon regaining consciousness, SCP-8382 began attacking the subject, breaking their humerus. The Class-D was extracted, treated, and then interrogated.

Interrogation Log – Class-D:
Agent ⬛⬛⬛⬛: What happened in that cell with SCP-8382?
Class-D: At first, I started losing my memory. I don’t really remember much of what happened. Then I fainted, and after I woke up, it began attacking me — as you all saw.
Agent ⬛⬛⬛⬛: Do you remember if it said anything or if you felt anything strange during the test?
Class-D: (Silent)
Agent ⬛⬛⬛⬛: This part is very important, please answer.
Class-D: (Hesitates) … Now that I think about it, it was staring intensely at the part of my body it later broke. I don’t remember anything else.
Agent: Are you sure you don’t remember anything else?
Class-D: Yes.
End Log

Current Status of SCP-8382:
Following this experiment, reclassification of the object from Euclid to Keter was considered but not approved by the O5 Council or the Ethics Committee. However, its containment cell has been upgraded to better resist anomalous effects.

Addendum 3: SCP-8382 Breach
At 04:21, SCP-8382 broke through its cell door, causing chaos in the corridors. As per protocol, agents within 120m were alerted and sent to recontain the anomaly. Four fainted, nine suffered memory loss, and three had heart attacks. Only four survived. The entity attacked, severely injuring two agents and killing one. Special forces were alerted at 05:32 and administered drugs to counter its effects. They secured the surviving agents and attempted recontainment. The anomaly attacked them, forcing the team to trap it in an unstaffed section of the site. At 09:28, the entity was transferred to a new, more secure containment cell.

Strangely, once the medication wore off, special forces personnel experienced delayed effects despite no longer being in close proximity to the entity. Three died from heart attacks, one fainted, and two suffered memory loss. This led to the development of new medications to counter SCP-8382’s anomalous effect.

The user also had a history of AI usage on the Italian Branch of the SCP Wiki.

it's not artificial intelligence, i don't do things to get banned, have a nice day

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17111552/scp-8382#post-6962818 (reply to reader comment "I notice that your SCP Sandbox draft is written in Italian, and that the article doesn't change much when compared to its first iteration. Did you write all of this yourself? Did you use an online translation service to make the English version? If so, why are you posting this on the English wiki, versus writing for the Italian Branch? Edit: that's not quite what I meant. There's a difference between translating something yourself, and plugging it into Google Translate. Which option did you use?")

yes I wrote it, yes I translated it, I put it here because the Italian SCP branch is not very active

Also noting that they attempted to ask for feedback on an AI-generated draft in the Ideas Critique forum:

Noting that about 9 hours after this thread was created, I received this message from a site member:

Hello,

I'd like to point you towards user Magnum26 who has created multiple Sandboxes (most of which are on the Italian site) that show up completely unedited. They have also posted multiple SCP articles that appear to be AI generated. It's possible that they used a separate application to write the SCPs but I doubt it because it wouldn't make sense for them to use the Sandbox afterwards.

http://scpsandboxit.wikidot.com/scp-it-xxx
http://scpsandboxit.wikidot.com/magnum
http://scpsandboxit.wikidot.com/magnum
https://scp-sandbox-3.wikidot.com/mi
If you'd like to verify these, "Cronologia" is what the "History" button is called.

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8382
This one has black box emojis rather than redactions which makes me suspect that AI redacted the lines rather than Wikidot code.

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8908
This one seems suspicious because they deleted it and then reposted it again asking people who already read it not to do so again. They also don't seem capable of defending the idea or even understanding how to make an SCP.

Thank you

I responded:

Thank you for the message! Staff has recorded the case here: https://05command.wikidot.com/forum/t-17113467/ai-record-magnum26 and removed the user's site membership.

Re-applied, rejoined site.

Re: AI Record - Magnum26

Zyn 06 May 2025 06:30

Noting that today, they posted the following:

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17113428/tips-on-how-to-improve-it#post-6974709

it's not AI, a website can't understand if a text is AI, everyone has their own way of writing.

Of note, this user was confirmed to have a history of posting AI content on another branch as well:

• http://fondazionescp.wikidot.com/forum/t-17100096/scp-xxx-it-anello-controllante
• http://fondazionescp.wikidot.com/forum/t-17103861/scp-xxx-it-predatore-rigenerabile

As such, they have been issued a permanent ban, Mann, afto, and Kufat supporting. PM has been sent, an appeal is available to them.

Received the following PM from the user:

imagine banning me for having AI-like writing, toxic community, who knows how many people you've banned for nothing

Sent back:

Is this the content of the ban appeal you would like to submit?

They replied:

Does it seem normal to you to rely on a site to ban a person? Anyway, that's what it is

I have not responded, as the user has not confirmed if they are submitting an appeal or not.

ETA: noting that about 14 hours later, I received the following message:

Yes

Assuming that means that is the appeal text the user would like to submit, Disc team, please weigh in.

Noting that nico, Zoobeeny, afto, and stormbreath have voted to decline the appeal.

Appeal has been declined; the ban remains in place. User has been PMed. The next day they may submit an appeal is 8 May 2026.
