It's always Rainy in Tiperrary

Hello F(r)iend,

My name is Malice but you can call me M, I'm a cool cat.

I've been lurking for a longtime, in the shadows, visiting regularly for update from producers, but never actively.

My first ever purchase was Identity Crisis from CC, I supported many producers over the years (not all but eh, gotta eat too.)

In other words, I was procrastinating... Until it finally clicked.

I would love to be able to hone my skills as a writer, and continue to enjoy other's craft.

I tend to favor F/F story-lines, but who knows, I might have some trick up my sleeves...

I am working on my first fiction inspired mainly by Supergirl. I hope to be able to stray enough from Kara to entertain you all.

I guess time will tell.

Hail Lynda!

Hey y'all,

Thank you all for your messages, feel free to engage as well.

"I am sure you will find a home" Kinda feels like I did, already.... But thanks for this elegant touch. I took the liberty to spoof your previous posts, and any fan of CC is a friend of mine. ;)

Well I dropped something, but there seem to be a problem with the approval process. But it should sort itself out, I'm not too worried.

I have been working on something special to me, that I hope will be as special to you all when complete. I have thus far three chapters pretty much tied-up, but I would like to gather impressions when it'll be available.

My doubts are in regard to the style I chose, I try to "purge" a lot. I recently started to calling it killing my babies.

I feel the need to abandon a few of them on a daily basis, to ease the flow, or eliminate redundancy, and also to get myself out of treacherous trails...

I chose a third person perspective told narrative, in past tense, character's POV shifting from chapter to chapter. One of my issues is a supporting character, a detective which gives me a lot of trouble to write in a gritty and grounded manner.

Again, I'm not too worried, but any book/ movie recommendation of crime thrillers I will onboard. I feel like my struggling stems from a lack of education in regard to the Force but luckily I am willing to recognize it, so it should be fixable.

The use of small interludes will be a way to frustrate you, if briefly, but also convey world building element, set-ups, and hopefully some funny beats along the way.

I am very demanding with myself, so I will take all your comments with me, I will only respectfully "ignore" them if they throw a wrench in the "plan" I laid out thus far.

G.R.R Martin spoke of architect and gardener writer. I consider myself an archeologist, the plan takes form as I brush away the grains. Unearthing narratives elements in the process, adding to overarching structure, elements and world building that seem to emerge as I progress in my labor.

It might appear crazy, but my character's journey stretch across three entries, inspired by my most enduring memories of some producer's craft (Christina.....) but with enough of my own naughtiness to render it something intense. With restraint, yet with a willingness to dive deep with the fetish and sexual elements but in service of "The Story", at least that's what I fancy doing.

I am merely a novice, and despite my consistent and genuine efforts ( Uncharacteristic too....) I can only hope it sticks the landing with ye.

Here is a small breakdown of my projects in the work, all with the same character Aurora:

- Darklight. A SHIP story mainly F/F, with a slow sensual burn, set in a dystopian city: Metropole (to stray away from DC's Metropolis whilst cutting the need for a thorough world building, I feel as if you are in familiar territory, it will make things easier.) There are four main point of views, but I added supporting characters that will briefly disrupt either the flow or the narrative entirely. Although the story will be straight forward and easily accessible(I really hope), the attentive reader will be rewarded.

- X Factor. (Not set in stone but X is staying.....) A different tale. More classic peril elements, inspired by some old reads from SHC back in the days.... Now I'm a sucker for women centered story-line but I will try and do an effort to stray a little more in this one...

- TBD... The ending of the story is pretty set, some twists too, but it will likely evolve so much by the time I release anything that I did not settle on a title yet.

Here is a visual tease:

Image

It's crazy what AI can do for ye. Obviously I f-ed around a little with a certain actress in mind... The costume is inspired by Starlight's but is a little more practical and fierce. She will go some serious hardship but I have genuine care for her.

Spoiler ahead, I'm not a fan of permanent ending unless it really serves the narrative. (Logan is a great example.) So any gruesome and blood oriented Akiba Web form of punishment is not in the pipeline.

I feel a responsibility to convey the sexual element we all enjoy here, with subtlety and without crossing a certain line. I also feel it makes the outcome all the more enjoyable.

Be that as it may, I'm a just as deviant the next one, and don't intend to be shy, just not gratuitous.

I planned action sequences featuring brutal defeats and consequences, all the elements we all like in my personal "Best Of" version, with hopefully interesting intertwined elements that will heighten the tension and allow you to immerse not just in the display of erotic punishment, but in the mind of the characters I'm working on.

Thanks for the welcome messages, I hope y'all enjoy what's cooking.

Darkest Regards,

M

Funny you mention it! Aforethought is Malice’s Bliss, after all...

Thanks hope you will like the story that goes with it, two more chapters coming soon...

Thank you to everyone who showed support and appreciations, but as per the smear campaign directed at me for no reason I decided to took down the stories and reviews I worked on so far.

I deeply regret it I will post soon when the story is more advanced and the storm of stupidity has passed.

Thank you to Don Ship for inspiring me to start writing, I will continue solo.

I deeply regret it but since there is no support for online bullying that has been going on unchecked for days, I'm left with no choice but to leg it as I do not have time and energy to fix someone else's mental illness.

I will post soon when the story is over on other channels than this one, and probably behind a pay wall, to avoid communicating with some of the brain dead specimen that take pleasure in ruining other people's fun.

Oooook..... what smear campaign?

Hello,

A certain user jlocke has decided that I was a sock puppet for shevek, who I do not know except from his post and his producer status.

If possible, check the suppressed post vote for Kamala Harris, or the Dune 2 post review I made.

My crime: saying the trope man=bad is exhausting, following this, an absolute smear campaign (can not call it otherwise) on my name for no reason, MrX should be able to confirm....

viewtopic.php?p=216405#p216405

I reported his post but it kept going, I dunno... Maybe my story was that good.... I do not think so though, all I know is the feeling was far from nice.

I reported Malice as Shevek's sock puppet account. No one is reading the reports when members click on "!" button and report things. Malice started using the exact same language as Shevek and I called them out for it. And I reported them. They both freaked out and tried to prove they were different people. They desperately tried to convince me, for some reason. I told them that the admin could easily compare their IP addresses and prove me wrong. They did not like this.

Seriously if Shevek was using a sock puppet account he should definitely be banned. It's so unethical.

Could you please check Malice and Shevek's IP addresses?

I am also volunteering as a mod solely for the purpose of nuking any and all political posts. We really need someone to read reports and respond to them.

Yes, please give mod rights and admin to someone who will throw an inquisition unchecked on active members of the community because he did not like a word....

Should I share picture from 1936 to underline my point, or is this man(?) madness speaking for itself?

The best part about it is like the guys is like, oh sure when I get the proof I will apologize, any producer can relate to what bad press is and the damages it causes? Like I came here to seek help with my craft, share reviews and feedback, and promote my work, not getting smeared into oblivion by baboons like.

Unfortunately the purported "no politics" rule is a joke, used primarily to silence anyone who pushes back against the pair of right-wing crazies who otherwise treat this place as their playground. Hypnotic and the mod staff have very clearly made an affirmative decision to treat those people with kid gloves (otherwise they should have been banned long ago). It's safe to assume that the failure to respond to certain kinds of reports -- because I will bet that most of those reports consist of members rolling their eyes and hitting the button on a certain poster's latest paranoid-rant-thinly-disguised-as-cultural-commentary -- is by design.

One can always hope they will prove me wrong, of course. But given the abysmal record of community management here, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Yeah. I had no idea that politics were banned due to all the right wing propaganda being posted everywhere. But when a member posted something about the Genocide in Palestine, the mods stepped in. I'm honestly just looking for someone to read the reports submitted and respond. Either, yep it's politics, going to delete, or nope, it's fine, not going to take any action.

Letting this forum go unmoderated has led to the present situation. I'm trying to change it because it's one of the last places on the internet to discuss the superheroine fetish.

This place is great if you're looking to find out about new videos and find stories to read. But the last place for discussion of this fetish? I don't think this has been a place for that for a while unless you enjoy the same discussion those same handful of people being talked about turn nearly EVERY thread into. It's exhausting and makes nearly any discussion impossible other than the one they seem to want to rehash infinitely. Self promotion threads for videos and posts in the story sections are about the only things they stay out of, making any other kind of discussion/thread pretty much pointless on here.

Yeah, I was using that phrase lightly (loosely?) Is there anywhere else to go though? All the forums I used to go to shut down. Heroine Movies was fun for a while, but not under the new owners. Heroine News lets producers bully posters so there's not a very honest discussion over there. It's a real shame. I feel like the AI stuff is only going to get better and better to the point where nearly anyone could make a sexy superheroine movie. It would be great to have a place to explore this tech and how we can make better material.

Not that I know of and as much as I just griped/bitched I DO still like this site good enough to not want to shit on it by pointing people elsewhere. The internet where places like this existed is pretty much gone. There's some discord communities that have SOME overlap, but like most of those places they're smaller, walled off castles that the perves inhabiting them guard pretty diligently to keep it a place they enjoy even if that means the population stays pretty small.

If you don't think it's happening the way you want, then you should probably start a conversation you would like to have.

This is not the place to discuss politics be it left or right wing or independent...Some people try and we are usually good at clamping down on it but a few posts will slip through. What can ya do.

Anyway, Im excited for the new iteration of this forum, I think it's going to be great. A lot of producers and models I've talked to think it's going to be great as well. Can't wait to show it to you. Hopefully some of you will stick around for it. If not I'm sure there will be plenty that will.

I think we should look at who also contributes vs just makes political posts. jlocke, philohunter, shevek, maskripper make or made contribution posts and discuss topics. There are some who simply come in and comment and contribute nothing genre wise.

So yeah there maybe some political train wrecks but lets not discount contributions.

My issue is the grand inquisition that's been goin' on.

I understand that you guys (in the U.S) are having elections in a few months but like I think that things really blown out of proportion.

I for one, am not asking for moderators right, just peace, and thanks a million for the IP check. I hope (but ya know...) that it will sort out things.

Okay, I mean, this just is absolutely not true at all.

I was once reprimanded for "politics" for pointing out that shevek was engaged in dog-whistling. (Which HE actually confirmed. I was supposedly "shaming" him by asking very simple questions that forced him to admit it. Official Mod Team Position, I was literally told that I should have just pretended nothing was happening. From the same people who congratulated and high-fived each other for driving off another member who later objected to the same kind of bullshit and was supposedly "demanding the right to be rude" for objecting.)

That is not what "clamping down on it" looks like. You are just kidding yourself if you think otherwise. Notice how the majority of the film and media review section consists of shevek and Mr. X posts? It's because most of the community you could have had here has just outright given up and fucked off.

You have the forum you have chosen to have. This is what that looks like.

If there's a "new iteration" of this that means you've grown a spine and acquired some common sense, I'm all for it. But let's be real. That is not what has happened to this point. It just isn't.

(And yes, the "Malice" account is absolutely giving "shevek sockpuppet," for the record.)

We get it, Notuv2. You don't like it here. And I bet if I deleted Shevek, Mr X and Malice tomorrow you'd just find someone else to complain about. Oh, apparently I should add my name to your growing list along with our mods. Anyone else?
So once again, I'll remind you of the block feature where you can add the people you don't like to what's appropriately called the "Foes" list. Then you'll be able to enjoy the forum the way you like.
Lastly, I am going to remind you of another rule, no insults.

So...you didn't check the first dozen time Malice logged on before I accused him of being a sock puppet and before Shevek realized he should have used a VPN if he wanted a dark alter ego?

Also, you closed all the reports I made and didn't respond. At all. You just closed them.

And You just brought up personal insults. Which Shevek and Malice decided to use while having emotional breakdowns. Which I reported. And you closed. Without any comment. Are personal insults ok or not?

You haven't missed a couple of political posts. Shevek has interjected right wing politics in dozens, if not hundreds of posts. And they start political arguments. Is that ok if you agree with the political agenda?

Malice is clearly Shevek. He broke character and started writing EXACTLY like Shevek. That's why I noticed.

We need moderators who are willing to enforce the rules regardless of who breaks them.

There are no where near the number of active posters and contributors there used to be. How many left because they were sick of listening to right wing politics?

Who on this board constantly brings up income equality, women's rights, abortion rights, Black Lives Matter, the genocide in Palestine, transgender rights, police brutality, dangers of incel culture, and the need for more immigration into the U.S.? Who brings these topics up in every topic they show up in? No one.

Mighty, I get that you have strong political views, but so do some of your members. And they ain't all right wingers. If this is a MAGA only superheroine site, you guys should be honest about it.

If a producer who constantly spreads right wing political talking points uses a sock puppet they should be banned. Even if you agree with their politics.

Maybe if we had a mod that had different political views, then maybe the people constantly posting political stuff would stop.

I have no political views. I have never discussed politics on this board nor do I discuss it in real life.
This board is about superheroines. If you want to discuss that, fine. I view part of that discussion to be the current status of the genre vs. the past. If someone wants to complain that artists are changing the characters, or making them less sexy than they used to be, that seems ok to me.

I just got home after a 3 week work trip. I've got other work to deal with. As far as I am concerned, looking at IP's Malice is NOT Shevek. If that proves to be untrue, then I'll deal with it at that time.

Let's all just move on.

And I bet if I deleted Shevek, Mr X and Malice tomorrow you'd just find someone else to complain about.
And give me a break with this, dude. I've never "complained" about anyone just for the sake of it and you g-d well know it. I'm just stating the facts. If you think you are normally "good at" clamping down on political content here, that is not the case. It is so manifestly not the case that it is an obviously silly thing to claim at this point. So maybe don't do that.

I have no political views. I have never discussed politics on this board nor do I discuss it in real life.
And yet the endless proliferation of wingnuttery here persists almost totally unchecked. If that state of affairs is not agreeable to you, you have always had the means to stop it. It's pretty fair for members to ask why you refuse to do so.

Like, why does this seem to be the only kind of response you can actually muster?

Clearly plenty of people have done so. It didn't have to be that way, you chose that. Why, if you "have no political views"?

The simplest explanation would be that you look at someone like shevek's bottomless wokephobic paranoia and either agree with it or simply don't view it as "political," which effectively would be the same thing.

And I get feeling defensive about it, but dude. You should be able to see that people speaking up here are trying to help you.

I was answering your post. If that's defensive to you, ok. But it's the last one. Sorry you didn't get the answer you were looking for.

So once again, I'll remind you of the block feature where you can add the people you don't like to what's appropriately called the "Foes" list. Then you'll be able to enjoy the forum the way you like.
I'm sorry, but that is NOT true AT ALL. I've been trying to do this for probably literally years. Since there's the same two or three users who derail nearly every discussion with the same circular bullshit (and often the same two or three people pushing back against them) what adding them to your foe list leads to seeing one or two posts that are engaging and fun to read, then a flood of blocked posts, a handful of people pushing back or trying to get the thread back on topic, and then nothing because it's just impossible to talk past everyone replying to a sea of blocked posts. Sometimes they do seem to get a warning/get chased out of the thread, but by then all enthusiasm for the topic has been snuffed out and the discussion just dies.

Sure, that sounds good in theory, but in practice what we've had here for the last who knows how many years is the same handful of people turning nearly every topic into a discussion on this. It's exhausting and makes trying to start or join a conversation pointless as it's just going to go down that same road. From my point of view the politics discussion and what should be considered politics is a distraction. What really matters is you have a handful of users who derail so many topics that many people are expressing (and have been expressing for years) that the site is beyond frustrating to use. They consistently derail and suffocate discussions to the point where I personally have given up using the site for anything beyond posting stories or links to new books. It feels like there's no point in anything else here. I'm just one nobody you probably shouldn't care about, but you've got at least a few people expressing similar attitudes and I've been seeing similar attitudes expressed in threads for years.

I don't really want or expect a response as you've made it pretty clear you do not want/do not think you should/are not willing to change the situation. But god damn it would be great if the situation somehow changed.

Actually, it's worse than just ignoring the constant political commenting by three particular members. I've been threatened with being banned for trying to fight back against their nonsense. And Philo Hunter is right - blocking them is a poor recourse. It sounds simple enough but the three are very active posters so threads end up undecipherable.

Sorry guys I've seen some of the reported posts but I am struggling to find the tine to read the threads as family, friends and relatives keep dying. Had 13 go in last 10 months (another one last week MH !) I am a full time carer for my mum and she has deteriorated in the last few months so as I haven't been in a position to read the reported posts I have left them to others to look but it's obviously not happened

On behalf of everyone involved, I apologize.

I think we’re all eager to return to a super-heroine-focused conversation.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind being in the spotlight, but I'd prefer it be for something other than the chaos that’s kept this thread so active.

I’m not calling for any action against the person who started this, beyond a reminder to keep things in check—which, to be fair, Mighty Hypnotic has already done both here and elsewhere.

For me, the case is closed. Mighty’s comments were exactly what I hoped for, as they officially put to rest the baseless accusations I’ve had to deal with.

My only regret is that we didn’t handle this better on our own.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m frustrated with Jlocke, but he’s a regular contributor. Despite this clear misstep, I’d prefer he be given a chance to reflect on where he went wrong rather than face harsher consequences.

Honestly, I’ve liked some of his posts in the past, and I still stand by that. If anything, this issue serves as a reminder that, despite our different backgrounds, political beliefs, and personal experiences, we all come here for a shared passion.

That should be enough to keep us from tearing each other apart.

I’m grateful for this site. It's not perfect, but then again, none of us are. (Except Christina Carter...)

When it comes to Superheroine-in-peril forums, this is the best out there. I’d prefer everyone feel welcome, and that mods only step in when things really get out of hand.

You should have the right to post your opinion, just like others have the right not to care about it—so long as it doesn’t cross into slander.

I’ve been following this forum for years and finally decided to step out of lurker mode to contribute—not to debate US politics.

Mainly because the most pressing political issue where I live is whether Connor McGregor is running for president, or if he's just running as a joke… so, gimme a break.

Honestly, we should have wrapped this conversation up with Mighty’s words:
The truth is, this is a great place to discuss superheroine fetish and it's only going to get better.

Maybe I'm weird, but I prefer to just post pictures and keep on the topic of things related to superheroines in peril here.

Hey y'all,

It's crazy what AI can do for ye. Obviously I f-ed around a little with a certain actress in mind... The costume is inspired by Starlight's but is a little more practical and fierce. She will go some serious hardship but I have genuine care for her.

I like playing with AI with costumes descriptions... what program did you do use to this?

If I remember right, I put together the main layout using Canva and had some fun swapping faces with Pixlr. Lately, I’ve been getting into Hairper and discovered Ideogram, which I’m really vibing with.

I’m planning to use these tools to bring a story I’m working on to life.

I’ve also been thinking about scripting an AI-generated SHIP comic: it could be awesome!

My only concern is keeping things consistent between generations, which I struggle to achieve.

Your principal model is Ana de Armas. She´s so beautiful.
I´ll check it. Nice work.

Yep these are from my earlier batch, but it gives a nice idea of what the tools can do, and thanks, can't wait to see what you pull off.
