*phew* spn_littlebro is back. I got this message from LJ:

Thank you for contacting us about this matter. Your community was flagged as potentially being a source of spam, and as such was suspended. Upon further review, however, this does not appear to be the case, and your community has been unsuspended. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Regards,
LiveJournal Abuse Prevention Team

Abuse Prevention Team? Is that because of all the hurt!Sam? (hee) I can't believe it was seen as a potential source of spam (we only post once a month!). Anyway, glad that got cleared up.

The spn_littlebro account has been suspended and I have no idea why!

Does anyone know anything about this sort of thing? Why would a community be suspended? Especially when there's been no notification of wrong doing -or anything...

Can anyone help me by telling me what SPN challenges are on at the moments. As in, ones that have either just been announced, about to start posting etc etc. I'm being a bit lazy I have to admit (and, I'm not sure how to go about finding the state of all the challenges).

I think spn_cinema is on again yeah? (awesome challenge!). What else?

Thanks! <33

The Days:
1. Something old
2. Something new - talk about a new fanwork of yours!
3. Something you made for someone else
4. Something you made just for yourself
5. Something for a large fandom/pairing/character.
6. Something for a small fandom/pairing/character
7. Something you're just really proud of

I probably should pick a vid (hee... I do have some I'm proud of!) but I'm going to go with something that I am really proud to be part of.

Just over three years ago I proposed the idea of having a community where hurt!Sam and hurt!Jared fics could be archived. The response and support was amazing. From that spn_littlebro was born. A community that recs and archives fan works that feature hurt!Sam or hurt!Jared ('cause some of us a suckers for that stuff! *g*).

This community only exists because of all the people involved in getting it there. From the initial brainstorming sessions to the wonderful mods who have contributed to it over the years.

There are now over 1000 fics listed on the site. It has 500 members and is watched by over 600 people. We have a Delicious account, ff.net community and tumblr. There's also a monthly newsletter reccing all the awesome stuff fans make. So much of this is due to cherry916, harrigan and el1ie who have been instrumental in setting it up and continue to help it all run so smoothly. We've had many wonderful mods over the years helping out. Currently ayane42,jessm78 and reggie11 are helping search out all the awesome fan works to share with members and help keep it ticking over.

So yeah. Something that started as a way of having a place to go so I could find all the fics I wanted to read has ended up being a place that I consider an online home. A place I love and a place I love being part of. It's also something I will look back on and know that I will be proud that it exists. *wipes a tear* (haha! I think I got emotional there for a moment...must be the wine..!)

The end! That was a fun meme. :)

I'm really excited about this. The team at spn_littlebro have been working hard to put this together (seriously, this comm has the BEST mods...;D). If you've seen the hc_bingo cards but haven't signed up because you don't want to commit to so many squares then this will be perfect for you. Claim just one square (or more if you want) and as a team we're hoping to get a bingo (maybe even more than one!).
