Noting that new site member
Warden_of_the_Dark (account age 3 days, site membership 2 days) recently posted a concept thread, and upon a reviewer asking for more details, posted the following extremely long response with some AI indicators: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17173573/seeking-greenlights-the-memetic-generator#post-7091323
//First of all, thanks a lot for the response.//
//As for the central narrative, yes, I had a lot in mind, but I was afraid of going beyond the word limit that they specifically mentioned in the format.//
-----
//So, here's the main deal://
For the research on "The Memetic Generator", a Senior Researcher, James, is assigned. James conducts most of the tests on this SCP, and in the beginning, his tests are logical and purely science-based. Moreover, he is pretty thorough with his research and discovers a lot about the SCP, which subsequently earned him a lot of respect among his colleagues. However, somewhere along the way, James shows a shift of perspective. As his research continues, his prompts to this SCP become more and more questionable. His unethical research finally grabs the attention of the Ethics Committee when he attempts to make a Class-D view one of the images created by this SCP that has the memetic property of "transforming the viewer into SCP-173". Fortunately, this test was stopped from ever being conducted by one of the security guards stationed in the containment chamber.
James exhibits violence and dissatisfaction, something that doesn't quite match his character, on the guards' conduct, saying they were "limiting research on new, untrodden boundaries of anomalous science". Later, James was suspended from any further research on this SCP by the Ethics Committee as a disciplinary action, and he was put under psychological evaluation for 2 months.
The breach event occurs exactly at the end of this 2-month period, when Senior Researcher James was reinstated for research on this SCP. He achieves this by writing several emails to the Ethics Committee, begging pardon for his lapse of judgment, saying that he only had the Foundation's best interests at heart and that he wouldn't repeat this ever again. Due to this, the Ethics Committee decided that reassigning him to this skip again wouldn't cause a major problem, because he had probably learnt his lesson by now and because of his unparalleled previous research on this skip.
So, on the 26th of August, 2015, Researcher James entered this SCP's containment chamber with 2 Class-Ds. He somehow convinces the two security guards not to follow him inside (the guards say that he showed them a mail from the O5 Council that he was to be allowed inside alone, with his test subjects; confirmed later to be a fabricated mail from a false email ID created by James himself). It is not known as to what prompt he used, but upon viewing the memetic agent, these two Class-Ds started exhibiting superhuman intelligence, strength and ability to teleport.
Later, via the CCTV records, it is seen that they attempt to breach every major SCP on site, but only being able to breach 2 successfully (I am still deciding on what these are). This event caused the death of 26 non-combative personnel and 32 members of the Security Staff.
Later, when Senior Researcher James was arrested, he expressed no guilt for his actions. He says, "The Foundation needed to be taught a lesson. YOU need to LEARN how to treat AND RESPECT people like ME. HOW DARE those Ethics Committee crackheads put me on suspension, for my research I was doing IN THE FOUNDATION'S INTERESTS!!??"
James was shortly terminated by the order of Site Administration.

//Now, for the recontainment procedure...//
I am currently developing plans on how to enact this. Storyline generally flow to me as I write the actual story, but I want to frame it in a way where the MTF Eta-10 are involved. They use their special vision-filtering equipment to enter the containment chamber and input a prompt that basically neutralises those two Class-D that had gained anomalous power (think of the command to be an inverse of what Researcher James had input).
-----
//As a final note (and question), would you also like to know how the Foundation acquired this SCP? That's a wonderful story by itself.//
//And additionally, I would really like it if you could clear a dilemma of mine:
Should I write these events in the scientic and clinical foundation format, like an event-log or archive, or should I do that in tale-format, like the one done for "The Wasteland"?//

Hello respected member of the Butterfly Squad and Administrator of the SCP Foundation.
I am a first-time author in the SCP Wiki and would like to get my concept, "The Memetic Generator", reviewed by you if possible. I saw if your profil that is specially liek concepts relating to technology, so I felt that you would like my concept.
Here's the link to my forum post.
Warm regards,
Warden_of_the_Dark.
Of note, neither my wikidot profile nor my Roster entry mention technology.
