The idea is to put caps on the most overused subjects of creepypasta (and the ones that seem to attract incompetent/lazy writers the most). You're not supposed to post stories about the subjects listed, the idea being that this will encourage the creation of more ORIGINAL pastas. You can still WRITE stories on them, just post them offsite and link to them on your userpage or use Spinoff Appeal.

Now, where did you get the idea that this rule forbids the posting of ANY new stories? I don't see it.
