It watches, in darkness it stalks its prey, some hapless victim soon to be no more. I met it once, saw it, felt terror fill my soul and chills rack my body. It still haunts me to this day, that manifestation of fear and evil. I walk between the trees, hearing leaves crunch beneath my heavy tread. My heart beats steadily faster the further I progress into the woods. Tremors reach my hands as the light I hold begins to flicker. I see a lone cottage up ahead, a light dimly illuminating the windows. Should I enter? Is it safe? Unsure, I slowly inch my way towards the house, looking for any sign of movement, listening intently for a sound, a call, a footstep, anything. The porch creaks as I step on its weakened boards. I stop. I hear a low whistling sound of wind blowing through the eaves. Was that… a footstep? I push open the door and the fetid stench within reaches me. What is that ungodly smell? Something creaks deeper in the cottage; I feel the frost beginning to advance on my exposed skin. I see something move outside, a shadow against a dark background, but that can’t be right, can it? Can it? Do I delve deeper into the house or do I flee back to the woods? As if in answer, the door slams shut behind me as the lights go out. I can’t see, that means it can’t see me, right? Or can it? I rush to a corner and hide behind a shelf. It can’t see me, right? Can it? I feel a presence within the room, as shivers run down my arms. Can it see me? Can it hear my ever beating heart? Can it? I hold my breath and peek out from my hiding spot… My heart stops. Written on the wall are three words that I can’t quite make out. Yes… I… Can…
If only one of us who come to here (This thread) Or at least hang out in FanFic and write stories could be a mod. That'd be a good change.
We thought of that before, but then Belle came along to help. Now we have no-one. I guess I could shoot the devs a message.
If you become a Mod, when Wulf does his "Welcome Our Newest Member!" Thread, I'll give a big round of applause.
Yeah, it probably won't happen. Although if it does, I'll have something to keep busy with xD But in all seriousness, I'd only really be able to do things on weekends, and I'm grounded anyway. Although a green name is somewhat threateningly for whatever reason.
Send the devs screenshots of the FanFiction spam, but not the locked stuff - they've already taken care of that. Tell them that FF is in dire need of a mod, and also, advocate for it's revival in AT. Mod nominations are optional. Just letting you guys know, I've done my part and can do no more, as my computer's not available to me. Do your part and email the devs with SS's of the spam, and call for reform.
Moderators can moderate fan fic if you ask them to check it. Fanfic threads show up in AT on PC anyways. You can alternatively report the thread, as you have done.
