The spinnoff ban in my humble opinion is very bad because it hinders writers creativity

>Not stopping them from writing about anything else, nor does it stop them from writing about NEW ideas.

and hurts writers chanses of becomeing popular

>you mean cashing in on what's already popular? You mean, like, what uncreative and lazy people do?

and creating content that is potentually enjoyable for readers.

>of a like-minded constituency

This ban is against the main idea of creepypasta because it was created to share creepy stories online of any kind

>this site was created as a repository of horror stories, not a mixing pot of anything anyone considers to be TEH HORRURZ. I can see why this genre gets such a bad reputation.

and this is just hindering people from being exposed to a type of writing they may enjoy.

>YOU MEAN THE SAME THING THIRTY DOZEN OTHER PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY WRITTEN!?!? NEW EH?
