Pitchforks: Difference between revisions

'''Pitchforks''' are a [[PPMB]] in-joke where writers who left unfinished stories were 'jabbed' by their readers with pitchforks or other pointy objects in a jesting way to encourage them to finish their story. As an 'angel in hell' [[Angelinhel]] first coined the use of a pitchfork (usually flaming). [[Kristen Bealer]] is another PPMB regular known for enthusiastic use of a pitchfork. Other fans preferred various implements, such as [[Thea Zara]]'s preference for the whip. Variations also include using [[fanon]] characters, such as [[Bump]] (especially when "bumping" an old thread), in mini-scenes to deliver the hint.
