No Problem
I had a free moment at work to look at it, I actually have to get back to it so I'll just leave this if they come asking about why it was deleted. The story had a lot of punctuation, capitalization, grammatical (it's/its) errors and the story line is also lacking in some aspects. I can go more in depth later with examples.

RE: JtK Contest
I believe you have written a very solid blog. A couple of points I want to mention:

1) I think it would be wise to have some instructions on how to use pastebin in the blog. It's very simple, so it wouldn't take much space and would certainly help out. Also, many new members might be too shy to ask. I will come up with the instructions myself tomorrow.

2) I don't really feel it's necessary for Jeff to become crazy, that might limit some writers' creativity. Personally, I would find it interesting to see a possession, or something different. So, as long as Jeff becomes "the killer", I believe we are fine.

3) Lastly, I'm not that convinced that only one story should become the "new Jeff". If this thing becomes big, it might be a bit too much of a reward (it might even turn out to be bad). I would prefer multiple winners. For example, the winner would be the main pasta, with second and third place alongside it. Maybe on a special page or something. All in all, I feel only one "new Jeff" isn't such a good idea.

4) We should make a special point for grammar. As the stories will be posted off-wiki, ironing out the mistakes will be more difficult than normal. If there are too many grammar/punctuation/etc mistakes, the entry should be disqualified.

That's all. Other than that, I believe it's as good as it gets. I will let the other judges know of this so they can throw in their opinion too. Thanks for doing this. MrDupin (talk) 22:19, September 24, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm happy the way it is. Maybe I'll think of something else in the future. In the meanwhile, I let the other judges know of this, so they can chime in with their opinion too. MrDupin (talk) 23:40, September 24, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Quick Question
Thing is, it might turn out like the PotM. A lot of people read only the most voted on story and ignore the rest. That might produce skewed results, and in such a contest that could be bad.

I was thinking that we could do something a bit more complicated, but it would offer more stable results. The judges would choose their top-5 (or so) stories and would also rank them. Then, that top-5 would get voted by the community via a poll, again ranking the stories. Lastly, admins would rank the stories on their own.

So we would be left with three separate standings. Each position would award the pasta points (eg. first place equals 10 points). We would sum up all the pasta points and the final ranking would be based on that sums.

An advantage of this is that it would erase any anomaly produced by the public poll, and it would also have the admins' stamp without putting too much work on their shoulders (they would only have to evaluate the top stories).

I know it's a bit late, but this seems more fair and stable than the current system, and would practically leave no part of the community dissatisfied.

If you fancy that system, I can elaborate more with an example. MrDupin (talk) 19:18, September 27, 2015 (UTC)

Licensing-Thank you
I would like to say thank you for making those alterations to the two works I mentioned to SP, and for making them so quickly. The corrections you made were exactly what I wanted.

For the record, I'm was not bitter about the changes SP made. I understand that rules can be misinterpreted. I even questioned if I was in the right.

Again, thank you for bringing a quick resolution to this issue.

RE: Story Deletion
Hello there, my name is RubikApe and I've been a creepypasta reader for a while now and, today, I decided to try writting one of my own (even if it wasn't that good). After creating my account, I wrote a post, instead of a story (I'm sorry, I'm still learning :p), and my post, normally, got deleted, by you. I would have no problem at all, if it wasn't for the fact that, after trying to re-upload my story now in the right place, you instantly deleted it. I've read the Quality Standards already and I still don't understand what's wrong with my story

I believe you have a perfectly good reason for this, but I'm just confuse. Since I still don't know how this site really works, i've already made a post at the forum (i'm sorry if i wasn't suppost to, I really don't know. Anyway, I hope the message gets throght...

A Concern About My Pasta
Hello Underscorre, I have recently noticed that something appears to be wrong with my pasta, Revival.

Even though I wrote the story, as comments clearly show, the page appears to be empty. At first I thought this was a problem with my computer, but when I checked on my chromebook, the same difficulties repeated themselves.

Any help here is very appreciated.

Thanks!

RE: The Nightlight
Hi Tom,

Just seeking some feedback on a story I have just written. Do you feel if it would work better if it were re-written in a standard 3rd person format with the female lead as the protagonist? Honestly, though I have read many of the more note-worthy pastas I would not profess to having read even a tenth of what is out there. I haven't really seen the forum format used all that often, but you would know better considering that you probably see hundreds of these things every day.

JCatenaci (talk) 07:05, September 30, 2015 (UTC)

Hmm, well okay. Until you mentioned it, I didn't even think of the plot revolving around the forum members being targeted, and as the author I would like to add that it's more of a coincidence. Maybe removing Alvin and the final part about PuckU seeing the lights would do it. I appreciate the compliment on the atmosphere, and I really tried to allow it to slowly build. I also hope that others can appreciate my attempts to make the characters respond in realistice manners (Puck trying to convince DatDawg to call the police and stay with friends, the comical nature of the user names, and DatDawg checking herself in for psychiatric evaluation after her last nightmare).

Hope to hear a verdict soon, and I already took it to the writer's workshop to get more feedback. Would love to see if I can make this into a successful entry!

A Favor
Hello! Rinskuro was going to ask an Administrator to look into a picture that was submitted for the Art Contest and I'm unsure if he got around to it as he's been busy (with university, I believe). I tried reverse google searching it and came up with things that looked somewhat similar in art style, but couldn't find an exact match. I figured you might have the best chance of finding another copy of the picture in question should one exist. If you find no matches then I'd love to get to judging it.

Here's the picture in question: Sorry to wait so long to approach you about this. There's a bit of a rush, the contest judging ends on the 10th (and I'll be gone on the 10th) so if you could get it done by tomorrow or the 9th then I'd really appreciate it. If you are too busy to look into it then please let me know ASAP. I'm aware the short notice is rude of me and I'm very sorry. I'm just starting to get worried about it, I wish I had said something a couple of days ago. Buckle up  I'm going to be popular  19:28, October 7, 2015 (UTC)

Contest Idea
Excuse me, Mister Undersccore, (Sorry for the formality. I just want to stay on the good side of the admins.)

So, my contest blog was deleted. I read over the message you sent me and I decided to post my contest idea here to see if you approve of it.

My idea was to make a contest where users would submit their ideas for a creepypasta. I thought it was an idea that might make way for some good stories. The rules would be:

1. No submitting troll pasta entrees. (Ex: A man encounters a VHS tape showing a man bleeding hyper-realistic blood!)

2. No submitting ideas that are spinoffs or ideas that have already been used.

3. I expect good grammar, although minor mistakes are OK.

4. This is not required, but I encourage fleshing out your idea as much as possible.

5. Any entree that does not follow the rules above (Except for 4) will be ignored.

So, yeah, that's my idea. If you approve of it, tell me that you do. If you do not, tell me what I can change to make my idea approved.

Thanks, Mister Undersccore.

Considering Contributions
Hey. I saw your polite departure message on my profile and decided to stop by.

Truth be told, I lost all my motivation to write the moment I stopped contributing to this wiki. Everywhere else either has no sense of horror or no community. I was so motivated while I was active here. For the most part, all the criticism I recieved, both positive and negative, was very helpful. That's why despite my still very bitter feelings, I would like to contribute to this wiki again.

I don't know if I'll be as involved as before, but I would still like to have somewhere to put my occasional creative thoughts. I'm going to start with something recommended to me a long while back ny the admin Empy: combining all my micropastas into one list/page. This will help me share my short stories while giving me some leniancy with the strict rules.

Wish me luck! ColorlessAngelz (talk) 15:39, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

Creepy Art Contest Winners
I'm currently in a slightly difficult situation as I am unable to a ccess a computer and my phone can't let me use source mode. Typing is also tedious. Earlier in the day I made a  blog announcing the winners of the art contest, and I will discuss prizes with Ruckus. But as for now, would you mind doing me a big favour and mesaging the winners linking them to the blob and also see if you can somehow put the very impressive 1st place onto the front page? And lastly, putting a link for the winner blog onto the original contest blog and adding it (winners blog) to staff blogs.

Thank you so much and apologies for the delay. The mess regarding the competition and prizes will be organized on Monday when I can get back to skl again.

RE: Blocked
WARNING: Since I pre-typed this comment immediately after I was banned two days ago, this comment contains some sarcasm and venting.

Thank you for blocking me based off your incorrect assumption. Waiting a couple days before getting to explain myself is always fun.

My recent upload wasn't "an excuse to reupload deleted stories." It was an idea to combine all my micropastas into one list that was pitched to me a long time ago Empy the admin. I explained this already in my previous message (glad you paid attention). My stories were taken down (allegedly) because, as short stories, they weren't quite strong enough to meet the standards on their own, not because of legitimate lack of quality. Therefore, putting them all together, like Empy did with his short story list, should more than suffice for acceptance on this wiki.

Think of it like this. Would Empy's short story "Pillow Talk" (I loved how my wife used to wake me up by whispering sweet nothings into my ear every morning. I didn’t enjoy her pillow talk as much the day after her funeral.) get deleted if he posted it as a stand alone story? Unless there's some kind of admin bias, yes. However, his story is accepted on this wiki because he grouped it together on the same page as several of his other short stories. This is the same thing I did. Therefore you should either delete his short stories page because the individual stories aren't all enough to stand alone like you did with mine, or you should have never removed my micropasta collection and blocked me in the first place. Still, I'll be writing an article on the deletion appeal page just to clear things up 100%.

Side note: there should be some sort of time frame for ban-stacking. I was blocked for reuploading some stories (via a miscommunication with an admin) about a year ago, so why am I receiving this 2 day block punishment as if I'm repeatedly/ntentionally spamming this wiki?We both know the rules are intended to prevent malicious users from harming/bothering other users on the site. As someone who quite literally just explained (in my previous comment) to you how excited he is to be back and contribute, you know I don't belong in that boat. Please message me so we can clear things up BEFORE blocking me and making me wait several days next time. Obnoxious acts like that make it very hard to believe the admins on this site aren't out to get me. I took an eight month break. I should not come back happy and return to a state of paranoia after just ten minutes. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 15:11, October 11, 2015 (UTC)

RE: RE
I'm going to write this response while I read your message since it's quite the behemoth. I really wish you guys would simply understand that I'm a writer who has good intentions and just wants to come back to contributing to this wiki instead of going out of your way to find any assumption that what I'm doing is out of malice and/or against the rules.

1. I'm not, nor is anyone, on any site, EVER, going to read EVERY single bit of text on EVERY page. Yet, you admins on this site always use the "it's mentioned somewhere on some page" excuse as a go-to to back up your "ignorance is no excuse" bs. The reality is that yes, ignorance is a perfectly justified excuse, just not willful ignorance. If you put that kind of information somewhere useful/noticably visible, such as the "you're blocked" screen, then I could honestly say I have no excuse. Until then, don't expect me, or anyone, to go searching through every wall of text on every page until they learn and memorize every single rule and bit of knowledge offered on wikipedia.

2. It was a way to reupload my highly praised, properly if not overly qualified stories as well as several new ones, but it wasn't just some "excuse." like you claim it to be. I, as well as many others, in fact, several admins (yourself included I believe) have given these micropastas understandable praise for their exceptional quality, (proven by the fact that they were able to stay on the site for months [before being deleted for vague, non-descript reasons] even though they were all only three or less sentences). I've said it before and I'll say it again, even though I shouldn't have to say it at all: just because a story is uploaded and taken down DOESN'T change it's quality. These are still the same stories you praised, and the same stories Empy told me to upload in a collection page. Also, it's easy for you admins to rush to block me without taking the time to investigate for a minute, yet you'll tell me repeatedly to "be patient" because I don't come up with a story or something to talk tabout and sit there for a day hoping for an admin to check his page and respond. I try waiting, but I can only do it for so long before my restlessness and drive to create more gets the best of me. If anything, yeah, I should be more patient, but you admins should also respond faster.

3. It's not irrelevant. We're in the same creative boat on this issue, that's why I brought him up. The only difference is that, since I posted my stories individually and they were taken down, you guys suddenly believe they have less than deserving quality for some reason. As far as needed to go through deletion appeals, I figured as much, that's why I went to the deletion appeal page. Empy declined my appeal for pretty much the same thing I just explained: they had been uploaded and taken down before, therefore... they should automatically be taken down again? I don't follow, and I sent him a message on my talk page about how unfair this is.

4. This wasn't a reupload. This was a brand new compilation page. I really can't stress enough that just because a short story couldn't stand on it's own doesn't mean it can't stand on a list with several other stories like Empy's list. Also I'm not annoyed I'm being treated the same as everyone else. That's you trying to twist my words. I'm annoyed that you're treating me as if I'm some sort of malicious troll who intends to abuse/has no regard for the rules, like the people that deserve to be blocked.

I'm glad you see how seriously I take getting blocked. It's because I take this wiki very seriously as it's really my only way to upload and properly share my writing. Hopefully next time you'll at least check your talk page and clear things up with me before blocking me, and I'll try contacting you through that link I now know about.
