Fuck You
For deleting your story. People read and enjoyed that masterpiece.

Sorry for the jokes but I've had a boring day and I must keep myself somewhat entertained or else I may be inclined to lose my mind.

When you have a chance, do you think you could read my latest story; Bubbles? It's a micropasta so it shouldn't take too much of you time. Please don't delete it though - it is nowhere near as good as Fuck Me and considering it was deleted then I'm Screwed.

Recreated
I seem to have recreated the trollpasta The Poop Emoji, as I was marking it for deletion as you were deleting it. Would you please re-delete it?

Possible spammer
Hello MrDupin. I recently noticed that there is this story called the ballad of the broken clown. I checked over it and all but then about thirty minuted later the author put another story called the ballad of a broken worm. and its pretty much just a copy and paste of the first story...idk if this would be considered as spam but i just wanted to ask you because it could be spam.

Deleted Story
Hello I recently had a story deleted because it appeared somewhere else, I moved it from under one name to another because there were multiple other stories on the internet and several books that had also had that name. So I changed it and put it under that new name so people couldn't find it easier. Also if the story is subject to deletion, then can I get a copy of the text for elsewhere, I did not have it saved any where else

Videos
Heyo!

Thanks for checking out our videos and such. Really appreciate the compliments (especially after reading some of your personal work, lordy). To be honest, we're actually having a super hard time just... getting noticed. Which is sort of diheartening, cause these videos each take upwards of ~100 hours to create. Of course, the amount of work put into a piece isn't necessarily a guage of its quality, but you seemed to like them well enough.

So, curious as to whether you have any advice on how to void going the way of the tumbleweed. Any suggestions for how might get our work in front of the community?

Tale Foundry (talk) 21:50, November 26, 2016 (UTC)

Fair enough! Thanks for the words of encouragement. Whenever we have more content we think the community might enjoy, we'll be sure to share it. I'll also be sure not to work myself into an early grave, because you're right, it is a very difficult balancing act.

For now, if you could change the title of that blog post (my only one as of yet) to "The Creepypasta Genre (video series)" I would would be in your debt.

Much appreciated, much applied. Thanks for all you contribute to the community.

Hello, MrDupin. I am here to ask that you remove a great sum of my stories from the wiki, as I do not wish to have any stories present that do not meet my personal quality standards any longer. The stories are Goat Horns, 100, Horror Revised: Jersey Devil, Horror Revised: The Phantom of the Opera, Necrologies as Forewarnings, Speak the Truth, and Non-Existence.

Story in WW/ The Squire and the Black Scroll
Hey Buddy, So I have a story in the Writer's Workshop that might be of interest to you. This came about from a previous comment you made a while back from another story of mine. If you read to the very end of it, all will be revealed.

The Story is called the Squire and the Black Scroll http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:563052 KillaHawke1 22:37, November 28, 2016 (UTC)

Hey
May seem as a bit of a strange question, but do you happen to know what the literary translation of a crow's cowling would be?

You bring the bodies, I handle the rest (talk) 17:45, December 1, 2016 (UTC)

Sorry for the vague choice of words. Straightforward, how do you write the sound made by a crow?

Edwin is my Squire
Thank you! Thank you for an awesome and uplifting review. I have taken your feedback and I am almost finished implementing them. You and user: jay ten have been vital in helping fulfill this dream of mine to write a tale as epic as this.

BTW...two things: the term "the small of the back" refers to the lower back; just above the tail bone. It's a phrase most people are more comfortable with instead of saying "above the butthole" Hahahah.

Second, I have put the final story in the WW to tie everything together. It is called The Maiden and the Lost Villagers. I hope you enjoy that one as well. --KillaHawke1 02:31, December 2, 2016 (UTC)

Would you please edit this page? Out with a Bang The second sentence has "its" when it should have "it's".

Hey MrDupin, I was wondering if you could take a look at my latest draft here. Feel free to nitpick the tinniest of things out and suggest ways to further the story a lot better. I can understand if you don't have the time to do so. Thanks in advance. RaptorKillerX-Venture (talk) 11:54, December 8, 2016 (UTC)

I see, thanks. Also I was wondering, by then I would've probably released a second draft which is more similar to the original one. Could you take a look into that as well? RaptorKillerX-Venture (talk) 12:15, December 8, 2016 (UTC)

Hey, just want to say thanks for giving your latest thoughts on my draft. Although it hurts to see that, I'm afraid your right; I'm not good enough to tackle that concept, doesn't mean I'll give up on it.

Maybe I'll get back to it in about a few months, also sorry for not responding; it's been really busy for this week. RaptorKillerX-Venture (talk) 14:29, December 15, 2016 (UTC)

NoSleep Subreddit
Hey man! I noticed your recent rant and just wanted to chime in. NoSleep is a much better subreddit than the shortscarystories one. There's actually a surpising amount of good quality stories there, despite the open-ended QS. Trust me, there is a lot of crap on there, but there is also a lot of good. Though suspension of disbelief is key, you can at the very least tell who likes and enjoys your storytelling based on how much and what kind of interaction you get. There are also ways of providing feedback without breaking the rules - it's all about wording. You can also blatently ask for feedback via the NoSleepOOC subreddit (OOC stands for "out of character"). If you want to delve a little deeper, I suggest reading the most popular post of all time from NoSleep, "I'm a Search and Rescue Officer for the US Forest Service..." (popularity doesn't necessarily correlate to quality, but in this case it does - trust me, this is a great series) or anything from user "iia" (you may have heard of him - he owns unsettlingstories.com - you can find all of his NoSleep stories on that website). Well, that's all! I just didn't want shortscarystories to taint your view of NoSleep. Pokemongreen3867 (talk) 03:06, December 11, 2016 (UTC)

Story Up for Review
Hi there! Long time no see. So I recently finished writing and revising a story called I Don't Like What I See. I first uploaded the story to the Spinoff Appeal page and it got rejected. I listened to the advice I was given and applied it to the story as best as I could. I submitted the current version of the story to WW and I was wondering if you could take a look at it.

Though now that I think about it, I'm starting to question why I uploaded the story to Spinoff Appeal. You see, despite the fact that it's a Pokepasta, the Pokemon related content in the story is very scarce (The only real Pokemon related content in there is the description of the protagonist at the end of the story being very similar to the description of a Charmander.) So in that case, if a story has very little content related to a blacklisted subject like Pokemon, should I still resubmit it to Spinoff Appeal (if the story is good enough to warrant it) or is that only for pastas that have a lot more content related to a blacklisted subject? Forgive me, I'm still learning the ropes of Spinoff Appeal.

Old Story
Hey, Dupin, I have an old story that has been deleted off the site. I want to access it to post it on the trollpasta wiki (it's horrible). I believe it's one of my first edits, and is called 'The Rake is Watching' (I know, horrible). Anyway, if there's any way you can access that, I would much appreciate it if you did, as I would very much like to do that. (I wonder how it would be recieved on reddit?)

Anyway, thanks again.

Problems
Dupin, i'm scared. I went on a writing spree and had two stories I was working on. One only had a page doen but the other had like 4 or 5. I didn't save the documents and logged off. When I got back on, my pages app is frozen and I can't interact with the documents. I can't just restart the app. what if I lose the stories? You know how hard it would be to completely restart. It wouldn't be the same the second time. I don't know what to do. ANy suggestions or anything?

Tide16 (talk) 16:25, December 15, 2016 (UTC)


 * Pages on mac. I don't remember specifically saving and the documents aren't on my desktop. I'm not sure if it autosaves them somewhere or not


 * Tide16 (talk) 16:52, December 15, 2016 (UTC)


 * I took the risk and force quit it. Luckily, it pulled back up the document when I reopened; even thought I hadn't saved it. That was a huge scare, I'm not going to not save ever again, lol

Re: Dissapp
It's been three months since my last app, not two. There's no reason to be disappointed. I don't consider the wiki hanging out, it is a hobby for me.

I don't see what the issue is, as making applications too rapidly isn't taking anything away from the wiki.

I've closed the app. I'll see you around.

Reply to "Nothing Much, You?" Message
Well I was wondering if you got a chance to look at my story on the Writer's Workshop. If you need the link to it, here you go (http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:564494). I've also been working on another pasta called A Trip to Cape Cod That I Won’t Forget (Originally called R.L Stine’s: The Haunting Hour Season 4 Episode 13) and it's basically a lost episode pasta that goes for a more psychological approach. I've made sure to use as few cliches as possible and to correct any grammar error I see. Though Cleric did bring up a very good point about the first four chapters. Here's what they had to say: ("Lost Episode as an archetype of creepypasta, like the one you posted on Psychobilly2422's talk page (something you really should refrain from doing in the future, please), tend to follow one of a handful of generic patterns.  The one you have posted seems to follow the "found strange DVD at friends house" formula and it's these stories by-the-books, paint-by-numbers approach that we have blacklisted them.")

I've been thinking about what they said and I've been brainstorming ways to make the first four chapters, specifically the part where the protagonist finds the DVD in her mother's friend's DVD collection, a little less formulaic. One of the things I came up with is that the protagonist finds it and thinks that the cover looks stupid and thinks about putting it back. However, the protagonist thinks it over and begrudingly decides to take it as it seems like the most interesting of the bunch. She stills finds the DVD but I think the reaction to it might be subversive compared to other pastas in the genre.

If you are curious to read the full but unfinished story, I can send you a link to the most recent version of it.
