04:13 🔗 xmc aren't you the one who did it
04:20 🔗 Frogging ruh roh

04:43 🔗 Frogging dark the rest of the IA while you're at it
04:44 🔗 Frogging because
04:44 🔗 Frogging i said so :)
04:46 🔗 Frogging (seriously, I think you need a proper claim over the content to make such a request)
04:50 🔗 bsmith096 i uploaded it, apparently people actually *do* care about their fanfic.
04:51 🔗 bsmith096 god *damn* do they ever care!
04:53 🔗 godane i think it would have to be people from fanfiction.net make a request for it to go dark
04:54 🔗 bsmith096 godane help me out here https://discord.gg/JQacT
04:54 🔗 Frogging why are you engaging with them
04:54 🔗 Frogging don't do that
04:55 🔗 godane i'm busy trying to save NPR
04:55 🔗 Frogging on a discord channel of all places, no accountability at all
04:56 🔗 bsmith096 tell me about it, messages are retroactively editable!
04:56 🔗 xmc nah i'm good not logging in
04:57 🔗 bsmith096 frogging: this was my bad. evidently more people use writing for therapy than i thought
04:57 🔗 Frogging yeah I don't touch discord links, I don't intend to start now :p
04:57 🔗 Frogging bsmith096: I think you're getting unnecessarily worked up about the fact that other people are getting worked up
05:00 🔗 xmc ^

07:01 🔗 matt_lock has joined #archiveteam-bs
07:13 🔗 bsmith096 has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
07:22 🔗 SketchCow Has bsmith093 died yet
07:23 🔗 GE has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 255 seconds)
07:48 🔗 Honno_ has joined #archiveteam-bs
07:51 🔗 Infreq has joined #archiveteam-bs
08:02 🔗 yipdw cool, now bsmith093 gets to learn about the complex relationship between fanfic and archival
08:02 🔗 yipdw or he can ignore it and dismiss it as bullshit I guess, which is easier but far less interesting
08:04 🔗 Frogging how did he even end up in there
08:04 🔗 Frogging :p
08:04 🔗 yipdw because (I believe) he's trying to do a good thing
08:04 🔗 yipdw but ran afoul of community norms, not intentionally
08:05 🔗 Frogging well, I meant, how did he end up getting into a confrontation with them
08:05 🔗 Frogging just seems... avoidable
08:06 🔗 yipdw probably because he thought letting people know would be a good idea and wasn't expecting a pushback; few people actually go in for a confrontation, unless it's Twitter
08:07 🔗 yipdw but like, I don't understand all of it myself, but from what I do understand fic can be very, very personal and there is a line between publishing and archiving in robust storage for indefinite later retrieval. obviously this line is not technical, it's social-norm
08:08 🔗 Frogging true
08:08 🔗 yipdw the safe thing to do is ask. of course this doesn't "work" at scale. one has to wonder, however, if that's the point. there are of course sites like AO3, but they aren't *gathering*; they take submissions
08:09 🔗 yipdw it is unfortunate that bsmith093 got a lashback tho
08:13 🔗 yipdw come to think of it, I wonder how many people we pissed off with the first fanfiction grab
08:13 🔗 yipdw i wasn't aware of fanfic community norms about that when I was helping with it and I'm certain that we probably left a really bad impression somewhere
08:34 🔗 matt_lock For what it's worth, fic *readers* like myself and many others are thankful for how works are put up and archived, even when they may be deleted from the original site
08:36 🔗 zyphlar has joined #archiveteam-bs
08:36 🔗 matt_lock Sometimes an Author takes their fic down, sometimes the site takes the fic down due to copyright claims alleged and/or actual violations of Terms of Service in the fic , sometimes there's a server error or whatever and data gets lost
08:39 🔗 matt_lock Maybe the Author took the fic down because they were ashamed, or maybe they were planning a re-write or whatever and never got around to it, and everything gets lost. In my opinion, archiving fics is OK, and that's as someone who'se written one or two
08:41 🔗 matt_lock this site (https://fanlore.org/wiki/Sharing_Deleted_Fanworks#Fannish_Approaches_To_Sharing_Deleted_Fanworks) has a summary of various beliefs.
08:43 🔗 matt_lock General consensus is that sharing of deleted fics is opt-out, unless you want to ignore courtesy. Unless the specific author publically asks for the fic not be shared, it's considered to be okay to share it.
08:45 🔗 matt_lock ... And I just realised that bsmith093, who sees to be at the centre of this whole thing, has quit. Hope he looks at the IRC archives.
08:49 🔗 Frogging I do hate it when I go back to look at something and it's vanished. That's actually why I archive
08:51 🔗 Frogging because things on the internet disappear. DMCAs and bad upkeep are responsible for a lot of it
08:52 🔗 godane same here
08:52 🔗 matt_lock Me too. I literally download or send to archive.org (or archive.is in cases of robots.txt) everything that I see that seems interesting to me
08:53 🔗 godane i have like 9 hard drives in shelf
08:54 🔗 matt_lock every fic I think is/could be half-way decent, I download. Every image or news article, I send to one of the archive sites.
08:54 🔗 godane and 9 external hard drives out near my computer
08:54 🔗 godane 4 of them are plugged in most of the time
08:56 🔗 godane i may have ~23.5tb in total
08:58 🔗 godane a part of me wants to get some more 4tb hard drives
09:01 🔗 godane looks like i'm at 1035k items now
09:06 🔗 Frogging I'm expanding my storage bit by bit
09:07 🔗 Frogging I'm sort of a data hoarder, but I'm selective. I don't indiscriminately download huge archives of shit I don't know or care about
09:07 🔗 Frogging which I think is something that "data hoarders" tend to get a bad rap for :p
09:09 🔗 Frogging well, except for IA.bak, but in that case I outsource the selectiveness to the shardmasters, heh
09:12 🔗 Frogging I trust they won't be filling my disk with 2TB of poorly encoded movies :p
