First off, let me start by saying that this is not a post to bash the New Jeff the Killer story or a post to bash the old one. I'm pointing out my opinions about the story that I feel in order to make my point heard. This is about a sincere question I have about Jeff the Killer and the rules of this site.

Ok, so I know that after it was first posted, so many "original" ideas and works were inspired by this story. The problem with them was that they were still so unrealistic that it would take the reader out of the story.

And now, the site rules strictly prohibit any and all works even remotely similar to Jeff the Killer.

And I agree...sort of.

It was majorly unrealistic to a point where it took the reader out of it, and there was no real plot to the story. I mean, Jeff basically becomes a God (you know what I mean) with all the freaking superpowers he gets.

But what if we were to scrap it and just harvest the idea of the story? What if we got rid of the superpowers, the "strange feelings," the no story and the no creep factor? What if a story was made that got rid of Jeff?

What if a story was written that extended into parts like NoEnd House or NES Godzilla, with an actual story line and an end goal in mind that is completely unexpected, just from plucking off of the idea of a serial killer at first? Would that story still be removed, being labeled as a "Jeff the Killer" knockoff?

If you've made it this far, thanks for reading and I really look forward to what you have to say. Please remember that I wasn't trying to bash Jeff the Killer, I was only trying to explain what defined Jeff the Killer and what I wouldn't do in order for everyone to see why, if I were to write a story, it shouldn't be removed just because it stems from the idea of a Jeff-the-Killer-like serial killer.
