A New Category
Heya, I just wanted to give a suggestion for a new category. I think a "Hospitals" or "Medical" category could be helpful. Sorry if I intruded, please don't hurt me. T-T   KittyBoo131 (talk) 04:28, November 8, 2015 (UTC)KittyBoo131

Hello there, I have a suggestion for a new category, how about "Pasta's of the month" were you have all prior pasta of the mounth's, and put them into a single category? Also, "Pasta Poetry" where any pastas that are poems go in that category. Thank you for your time! :) --Love watching all of you scream, CrazyWords 15:28, February 4, 2015 (UTC)CrazyWords

Help with appeals
hi sorry to bug you with trivial questions but my pasta got deleted for grammatical issues. I want to resubmit it but if I fail the first deletion appeal will I be be banned or not be able to appeal again? Help would be appriciated thank you --Twisted blitz (talk) 05:22, February 8, 2015 (UTC)

Call for unbiased admins to review my deletion appeal
I'm messaging all the admins on this wiki to consider my deletion appeal, titled "5 Pastas" because several admins are using (what they claim to be) their personal opinions to get rid of my stories from this site and brushing it off as "not meeting the quality standards."

Please take a look at my appeal with an open mind. I know it's rather long but I appreciate it. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 21:23, February 8, 2015 (UTC)

Long Time No See
Hey, Cleric. It's Spicy. Long time no see, I guess. I don't have much of a reason to stay now that there's no chat. I don't have time to read or edit pastas or I would. Sorry. I just thought that I would drop in and say hello. I hope you are well. Still being a multidimensional impossibility and whatnot.

RE: Deleted Stories
I appreciate the feedback on my stories, and will take your advice on increasing their length to heart for my future stories.

With that said, I still feel that my stories weren't bad enough to truly fall below the QS and were deleted for improper/personal reasons. Therefore, I still plan to stop contributing to this site.

I have, however, changed my mind about contributing my literary work to other sites. I was discouraged since my highly praised stories were suddenly deleted overnight for non-descript reasons. Because of this, I initially felt like if I couldn't be successful on a wiki I love, I couldn't be successful on any other literature-based site. After thinking about it though, I've realized that I'll be fine as long as I stay away from sites with possible admin bias.

If it's not too much trouble, I'd like a copy of my deleted stories please. Grizzly offered to give me the copies so I figure you're able to aswell. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 23:31, February 20, 2015 (UTC)

Greetings, exalted one.
Sir, my last pasta The Long List was hailed by Underscorre as one of the best pastas he has ever read. Could I humbly trouble you to read it and tell me what you think? Yours truly, HumboldtLycanthrope (talk) 00:10, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Another category suggestion
Well, probably you already know me. I'm the guy who suggested the categorization of pastas by length, or the Micropasta category. I'm here again for an another proposal of a category. Let me explain it.

I shall name this category Machines with this description, or anything near this, but as long as possible, please use this: "Machine inventions are big milestones of mankind's advancing technology. When these machines malfunction, expect the worst for human's fate."

Okay, I know. It may be connected to the Science Pastas category, but this category specifically deals with robotics, mechanics, or like the sorts. Science Pastas is, in fact, a generalization of scienctifically-based pastas; it deals with experiments, chemicals, mutations, and everything concerning the mind-fuckeries. Well, I hope you know what I mean. It may be a sub-category for Science Pastas, isn't it?

If ever possible, please ask for the community's opinion. Start a poll if the community must add the Machines category or not. We don't know; there might be someone else out there, except me, that wants this. If you want a further explanation of my proposal, please don't hesitate to ask.

That's all. Expecting for your reply.

Category Request
Hey, I was wondering if we could get an 'Apocalypse' category. I really like apocalyptic stories and it would make it easier to find them if we had an apocalypse category. A bunch of Empy's stories involve the apocalypse as well as all of mine. There's probably others too.

Sykokillah (talk) 19:48, February 28, 2015 (UTC)

In order to properly request a category, you should be giving examples of qualifying stories instead of suggesting it would be a good idea. Categories aren't just casual labels that get slapped on things like a list of ingredients. ClericofMadness (talk) 21:22, March 1, 2015 (UTC)

How many admins are on this site?

Third Wish
Greetings. Quick note: unless the author of Third Wish  (http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Third_Wish) is Chris Avellone or Colin McComb, or the author posted this before 1997, this is plagerism.

Deletion Request
Hi there. I'm sorry to ask you this, even though I did write it, but I would like to request that you delete this pasta, Spirit Dance Tape. Normally I would never ask any administrator to delete any of my work, but I strongly regret ever writing this. I wrote it a couple years ago, my story telling was still very minimal and▐██y, and I don't know what to fix about it because the idea of the story is long gone. I want everything about it to be gone, nothing left behind. Please, can you help me? Adamwalker (talk) 08:11, March 21, 2015 (UTC)

I was trying to post up a Creepypasta but 'blacklist' kept appearing. This is my story and my story alone and I took the time to make it have perfect grammar and everything. I think the problem is that I copied and pasted from my word document and it is not accepting. Is there any way to stop this from happening, again?

Not just riffs
But recently there was a challenge fever, where challenges were popping out of nowhere by many random users. I'd suggest to do a quality/quantity check before if they didn't stop, but I think it's somehow over now. They may have stopped for now, but maybe the idea will come back soon or later.

A "Children" Category
There is an awful lot of pasta told by, centered around, or that have children. So could we have a category? Here are some of them-

Little Sarah, Little Pink Backpack, Little Susie, Bon Bon, The Blue-Faced Baby, Black-Eyed Kids in Kansas, and many, many more. I think it would be much easier to just make a category. Much appreciated,

--Welcome One And All! 02:11, April 15, 2015 (UTC)CrazyWords

Slender Man remake pasta
Hi.

I saw on the home page that you're not allowed to do spin-off or sequels to existing pastas, but are you allowed to do remakes? I had my own idea of writing a remake of Slender Man that's very different.

Am I allowed?

Thanks in advance.

A Favor?
Hey, I was wondering if I could have a quick favor. You see, I'm trying to set up a wiki with HumbolLycanthrope, and and he said I should start a competition, with 10 winners the first round, 3 the second, and than a Grand Champion. Reward will be Creepypasta For Kid's T-Shirts and stickers, mabye Stephen King's latest book. I wondering if you could help get it out there, it would really help. Mabye you could make a blog, or put it on the main page.... It's going to be in a month.

So, thanks for it all! Here's a link to the wiki, we're trying to set up.

Thanks!

I'm about 30k words into a novel and am stretched thin between working near-constantly and writing the novel in the hour or so I get after work before I leave. Real progress will occur in June or July, depending on when work slows down. Worst comes to worst, the book will come out next year in a month that isn't October. Rest assured, though, it's not forgotten. I haven't had time to write any original horror fiction at all this year, though, so that is the tradeoff.

Hey
Hi! I've recently joined (I have been reading here for a long while, but never actually created and account until now :D).

Proposal
Hey, remember when I was active? ...well, I never really was too active aside from lurking BUT HEYOOOOOOO - anyway I had an idea. What if the best pastas posted on the Spinpasta Wiki in categories like Pokemon and Zelda were allowed to be called up to the Creepypasta Wiki? And less impressive ones got called back down to either Spinpasta or Trollpasta. I got the idea from studying the English Premier League's promotion/relegation system. What do you think? &#34;Oh, okay, then. The white hand on your shoulder, it&#39;s not real.&#34; (talk) 10:22, May 17, 2015 (UTC)

Proposal
I'm here to propose the addition of a new category to the genre listing. I have been editing the wiki a lot lately, and I've noticed one area in particular that lacks an option as far as categories are considered. "Cars/Trucks". The best option for categorizing a car themed pasta is "Items/Objects". I will now list a number of stories that would be acceptable for the category.

† denotes a pasta in the Historical Archive.


 * Thompson Pass
 * Drag Racer
 * I Love This Car
 * The Ghost of Grindr
 * Good's Diner
 * She's More Than Just a Car
 * Death's Truck
 * Kentucky Ghost Driver†
 * A Few Bad Apples
 * The Wendigo
 * Gas Mask The majority of the pasta, if not all of it, takes place in a car.
 * Arizona†
 * Hazards in Buying a Used Car†
 * How Thieves Bleed
 * The Gas Station
 * Under the Cover
 * The Woman on the Road
 * Road
 * The Never-Ending Road†

There's a lot more than that, of course. Also I would like to mention that ghosts/spirits/strange occurrences that happen on the road are a huge part of paranormal folklore. Also, a car relates to nearly every reader, so any story that includes a car almost immediately sucks the reader in. I think this is because the readers may feel like it could happen to them. Lastly, I feel like "Items/Objects" is quite a reach in terms of categorizing. Another point is that a lot of pastas that have this theme are under appreciated in my opinion. Anyone looking for a tale about cars, trucks, racing, or strange goings-on while on the road is bound to become frustrated searching through "Items/Objects".

No. Car/Trucks would be too small. Category:Vehicles now exists. Congratulations on being the first person to successfully petition a new category in years. You win the prize of finding more stories that fit in there haha. ClericofMadness (talk) 20:28, May 26, 2015 (UTC)

Sir, I do not know if you like punk rock music...
...but I have a sneaking suspicion that you may. I have written a punk-rock pasta that has been rated 10/10 by one reader and described as  "one of the best things I've ever read here"  by another. If you would do me the honor of giving it a read and voicing your opinion I would be most appreciative. Under a Rotting Sky I remain yours truly, HumboldtLycanthrope (talk) 04:06, June 4, 2015 (UTC)

a Pokemon story. So when I read the site rules, I noticed the rule:

With that in mind, could you point me to the tags where Pokemon creepypastas are supposed to go under?

Why was my story deleted?

ComDev wants to host a writing contest on Creepypasta
Hey, I’m reaching out to you and EmpyrealInvective because you are the most recently active bureaucrats. I’m part of the Community Development team and we wanted to do a promotion with you guys. Would you be interested in hosting a writing contest? You wouldn’t have to do any extra work, we would just host it on this wiki. We’re partnering with people behind the upcoming sequels to Paranormal Activity and Sinister. They want to sponsor a horror-themed writing contest… which would be good publicity for them, and good exposure for you guys. No word on prizes yet, but at the very least it would be cool to reach a larger audience. We’re asking you guys first because this wiki has a really strong community, but we can ask other wikis if you guys are opposed. I’m just gauging interest right now. I need to hear back ASAP. - Billy Arrowsmith (Talk), 23:31, June 29, 2015 (UTC)

New "Series" category
Hey Cleric,

So, I bounced this idea off of the other admins, and support seemed to be in relative favor of the idea of adding a "series" category to the site, for stories with sequels and such, like say...my Tobit series. The idea seems to be well received, so it was suggested that I suggest the idea to you.

Thanks for your time and consideration,

Problem: Organization

Solution: For every series, a hub page and links to all the parts of the series, and then tag the hub pages for the series with the series category. ClericofMadness (talk) 01:47, July 1, 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't know if that would work for smaller series, for example those with two or three stories. In my opinion it seems like a great deal of effort to create a hub page for every series we have. 05:53, July 1, 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, how else are you going to organize things? People who look for series won't want to see 100+ stories alphabetized, they're probably going to want to find other series to start from.  Perhaps, then, put links on all the first stories in a series to the other pages and categorize only the first story with the series category.  That's the almost the same amount of work without hub pages.  Alternatively, just make a page that lists all the series on the site and have links to the series.  Saves new category creation and makes an organized master list. ClericofMadness (talk) 18:22, July 1, 2015 (UTC)
 * I guess you're right, yeah. Hub pages do make more sense. By the way (totally off topic), asked me to point out the new wordmark to you, though I'm sure you've already seen it if you use the default skin. Do you have any opinions on it?  18:29, July 1, 2015 (UTC)
 * Me likey. Nice, when compared to our last two, not that they weren't any good, it's just that it's an improvement with colors and the sharpness of the lines.  ClericofMadness (talk) 22:48, July 1, 2015 (UTC)

Tulpa Author?
Hi, my name is Charlie Hamilton and I'm a Toronto, Canada based filmmaker. I frequent this site often, as I'm a huge horror fan and also look to it for inspiration. I recently stumbled across one such story, entitled "Tulpa," which I fell in love with. It appears to have been submitted anonymously, and I'm trying to figure how to track down the author as I'd very much like to option it for my next feature film project. It will be low budget, but there will definitely be some money to offer the author if they're interested in selling it. How would I be able to get in touch with the author, or is there a way? I've attached a link to the story for your consideration. Thanks very much for the help! Charlie ColdFirePlacePictures (talk) 21:10, July 6, 2015 (UTC) Story: http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Tulpa

New Here
Hi, I'm new to this wiki so I was wondering how it works here? Where do you post creepypasta stories that you made?

Pasta Removal Please
Hello. I am the author, Aaron Shotwell. I have recently published an anthology, entitled "Pleasant Nightmares," on the Kindle store. Due to my agreement with them, I need all of my stories posted here to be removed promptly. The work cannot be available for free access on wikia or social media, or it is a breach of my contract. Can you assist me with this? I see no options to do it myself. Thank you in advance.

Laughing Jack's Author Wants To Talk With You
SnuffBomb came onto the Trollpasta wiki chat wanting to speak with a CPW admin about Laughing Jack's deletion. He says that he's currently holding his fans back, but he wants to get the pastas back on the site. Snuff said that his skype is snuffbomb or flak116. So I'm assuming you could either leave a message there or somewhere on his talk page. I recommend you adress this quick, because the shitposting on trollpasta really pissed him off. Thanks.

Your thoughts?
So, as I am quite sure you've read by now, I have proposed a Jeff the Killer re-write contest. The idea is still being crowd-sourced, and in the end, it will come down to the wants of the community. So far, the support has been quite positive, with the lion share of votes in favor of making this happen.

What I wanted was to get your thoughts on it though. Since this is your wiki, and this contest could have a huge impact on where we stand in the Creepypasta Community, I really wanted to get your opinion. I certainly don't want anyone to think that I am "cowboying" this concept and running with it without getting some degree of backing from the powers that be.

As I have stated, I am confident, both as an Admin and a Writer, that this can be done well. I think we can manage the damage control and really create something amazing here. However, I don't want to create any bad press by pushing a contest that you, or any of the b'crats don't support.

I would love your thoughts on this, and look forward to hearing back.

Mobile App
Hey, I’m just sending this message out to active bureaucrats. I am with Wikia’s Community Development team. The mobile app team recently developed a mobile app for the Creepypasta Wiki which is super exciting. You guys have total control over the app and you can edit it using the page Special:CuratedContent. I hope you don’t mind that I put a link to the app on your homepage. We’re trying to spread the word because more people using it means better traffic for you guys. If you guys do not like having that on your homepage you are totally welcome to take it down, we just thought it would be helpful. also: If you guys have any ideas on how to get more people using the app, we always appreciate hearing things like that. - Billy Arrowsmith (Talk), 15:11, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

Hey, I need to ask you (since your an admin) if my pasta on the Writer's Workshop meets the standards so I can post it on the wiki. So here is the link: http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:500350

If you have finished looking over it and you have decided, leave me a message to let me know! Thanks! :D

Category:Political
Hey! Hello! Um, I posted a thread in the Discussion Board and an Admin ( Underscorre  )  told us we should talk with you about getting new categories. I will give only two ideas but if you dont like them you can totally shut them down. The idea of another user (  Jet.98<span style="color:rgb(212,212,213);font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;line-height:18px;"> ) was political and I tought he may be right since I saw some creepypasta that include The Goverment. One of my ideas was incest because there are some stories in which a familiar sexually molests another. Thank you for reading this message. Bye!

<span style="color:rgb(212,212,213);font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;line-height:18px;">Also, if you are responsible for all our nightmares, why does a japanese ghost who walks like a tarantula, but fast like a squirrel, is chasing me through the building where my grandparents live?


 * Incest? Hell to the no.  If you find stories that involve molestation kindly let me or another admin know so we can look into it.  That doesn't seem like there are going to be so many of those that we need a category for them.
 * Now, Political is interesting, but you're going to have to provide more than ten examples of stories where the main focus is the government or politics is the main focus. I doubt there are more than ten (if that many).  ClericofMadness (talk) 23:20, October 7, 2015 (UTC)

Good morning! Just wanted to check in and see if you'd come up with the top ten short stories you'd like to include in the voting? We need the selection by Friday, the 16th.

Fine
I have just created a thread on WW about my micropasta list before seeing your message.

I have read what you had to say and want to point out two things.

1. I don't use this site often. I use this site when I get into one of my writing phases. In turn, I end up taking some pretty lengthy breaks from this site.

The reason I'm telling you this is because you admins know a lot more about the site, such as all the rules/procedures, how to navigate through the site and easily find past conversations, etc. So when you say something like "WE HAVE GIVEN YOU CRITICISM BEFORE AND WILL NOT REPEAT OUTSELVES" I am unsure of how to look back and see exactly where this criticism is (some may be in my talk page, but there are other pages such as old deletion appeal pages that I'm unsure how to find) so for you, or any other admin to expect me to either A) remember or B) look up all that happened in the past on this site is unfair.

2. Speaking of the past, that is what brings me to my second point. I know exactly when my attitude problem with this site started. The night five of my seven highly praised creepypastas were deleted overnight by a single admin for vague, non-descript reasons. This not only did the obvious, piss me off and cause me to lose a lot of work, discourage me, lead to me leaving the site for 8 months, etc. but it also created an instant sense of paranoia as soon as several other admins started suddenly talking about how they felt the stories didn't meet QS either. Whether what they said was legitimate or not, the fact that it all suddenly came up at the last moment to back up the other admin gave me the impression that this site's admins have an elitist/pack mentality, and anyone who says something against an admin, respectful or not, is going to get punished for it one way or another.

I still believe this, as I was recently blocked just for debating with the admins for too long. I know I'm not the only one that believes this either. I remember seeing messages about it in forums when I first signed up. Still, I can honestly, truly, despite what you or anyone else on this site thinks, say that I have always had the best intentions while contributing to and conversing on this site. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 23:41, October 14, 2015 (UTC)

Fine2
(Tried adding this onto the last past but wasn't sure if I did it properly so I'm posting it here)

I assume you mean bias readers towards the stories.

Anyway I'm sure that to you ten or less comments isn't much, but when they're all positive, people offering ratings of 7/10+, it does a lot to encourage me. When my stories stay on the site for months while I see tons of other stories shot down immediately, it makes me feel like I'm just a natural. When I see admins talking to me in threads such as WW and chat about how they like my stories, it makes me feel like they are, in fact, good.

To take all of that away overnight, even if it was, somehow, for perfectly legitimate reasons, it was poorly thought out and inconsiderate.

RE:
Listen Dad, don't give me that "It's life" nonsense.

Whether you admit it or not, all 5 stories getting deleted at the same time by the same admin seems fishy. There's no debating that. If it was a legitimate quality issue, he could have attempted to discuss it with me.

I will prove to you that I can do better, but right now I'm not feeling motivated. It's not only due to the obvious toll that drama takes on a person, but as I've explained to other admins, micropastas are one of my favorite kinds of stories to create since I enjoy the challenge of making a good short story.

Simply put, you want my stories to get longer, and they will, but not until I'm able to successfully post some short stories as well. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 00:16, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

Your prior message
No, I wasn't able to see the link.

But I wasn't referring to Grave Robbers. I actually care most about my "My Grotesque Nightmare", "I slit my own throat once" and "A buffering Movie" Micropastas. If I could get at least those back up on my list, I'd be happy. Though I'm confident there are others on my new list that could pass too. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 00:19, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

RERE
1. I'm not talking about the reupload, I'm talking about the initial deletion of my 5 pages.

2. I cannot see those links, however I imagine it's something similar to the wiki activity page. If you're trying to say that's what the admin in question used, that doesn't make sense. My stories weren't initially posted at the same time. He would have had to intentionally go out of his way to find several of my stories spaced throughout the wiki.

3. I will do what it takes, so long as it can be done. Please help me out by giving me what critique you can in the WW. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 00:30, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

RERERE
So you admit he did go out of his way specifically to hunt down my stories. Whether he did it out of spite or the belief in a legitimate lack of quality only he will know, but I find it too suspicious to believe he did it with innocent intentions. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 00:50, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

RE5
I want to let it go, but I don't know if I can. How would you feel if you were in my shoes? Everyone on every part of the wiki (comments, WW, chat) praises your stories until one day you wake up and find almost all of them deleted, and suddenly everyone is telling you that they've suddenly found something wrong with them, and it doesn't stop. All you hear about every time you get on the site is a new fault with the stories you had so much confidence in, and on top of that, there's always quickly growing drama from admins who want you to shutup about it?

I won't accuse him of being malicious since I don't truly know. I'm not him, and as I said before, only he truly knows. I just want you to understand why I feel this way. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 01:20, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

Truth
I don't feel like I can.

I don't even think one of my two remaining stories (Ciravu's Gift) should be up. This is part of why I doubt that admins intentions. He deleted pastas I was proud of but kept one up that I don't necessarily care for.

I think it's only up because it's too long for an admin to sit down, read and find out he dislikes.

My only still successful story, Road of Recurrence, didn't even come from my creative drive. It came from my thoughts on death. When I posted it I expected it to be treated as a mediocre story that would probably end up deleted for not being scary enough.

I've spitballed so much in the past. Small stories, average stories. It's all been shut down.

I'm a one trick pony, and I don't think I have it in me to be as good of a writer as I would really like to be.

Even though I just got back here, I feel like I need another break. I'm just discouraged/unmotivated all the time, and it's just getting worse the more I hear about how bad my old stories were.

Maybe I'll sleep on it. I don't know. ColorlessAngelz (talk) 01:34, October 15, 2015 (UTC)

Review this story please
Sorry about the insecurity oozing out of my last message. I have been feeling very anxious lately due to recent events in my personal life.

With that said, about a day ago I uploaded a story to the WW. It has yet to get any feedback. Normally my impatience would get the best of me and I'd upload it to the main site but I'm trying to work on bettering myself.

Here is a link to the story:

Creeper50 (talk) 22:41, October 25, 2015 (UTC)Creeper50


 * That means no.  There's nowhere near enough stories on here that warrant such a category. ClericofMadness (talk) 04:25, October 26, 2015 (UTC)

But that's my idea. I thought that if there was such a category, it would inspire more of these pastas to be made, anbd they are generally high-quality, but at the same time, seldomly done.

Creeper50 (talk) 22:51, October 26, 2015 (UTC)Creeper50

Defusing situation
Hello! ~tips hat~ Yesterday I was honored by having SGT Michael Volkin, someone I highly respect, praise one of my stories ("The Binding Mask") on the Ultimate Basic Training Facebook page. I say this not to toot my own horn, but to inform you in advance of something. In the paragraph there is a sentence reading, "She recently followed up with me showing me a website she built called Creepypasta.com." He means that I created a pasta and posted it to the site. I thought I'd tell you just in case someone saw that, mistakenly thought that SGT Volkin was saying I created the site, or that I had claimed that, and told you, "Hey, she claimed she created Creepypasta!" No, we're not saying that. We're saying I wrote a story and put it on here (thus creating a new page). I should note, though, that if people really did think I built this site, I'd probably start getting weird messages. :-O Raidra (talk) 17:15, November 14, 2015 (UTC)

Hi Cleric. I have some work I would like to post here that I originally posted on an Angelfire website I put together, where it is still up. Will I still be allowed to mark it as OC (assuming it is accepted), and would you recommend that I license it with CC-BY-SA? I have not licensed it yet on the Angelfire site (probably a bad idea; I am unfortunately not knowledgeable about how to protect/license my work, as might have already been clear to you). Thank you.

You probably don't know me, but I have a lot of history with this wiki. I've been thinking about it lately, and I've decided to just come out and tell the person who started everything(At first, I left a message on Furbearingbrick's page, but she's active anymore I guess). I am the one and only Orangeknightguy something something random number.

<p style="font-weight:normal;color:rgb(212,212,213);font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">I think it was about 4 years ago that I did all that stuff, and if I'm correct, than I would've been about 11. I had some issues, such as depression, anxiety, and as you most prominently saw, anger issues. Needless to say, I went on the Internet a little too much. I've since taken medication and I've just come on here to say that I'm sorry if I bothered any of you guys. If I did say something like "all admins should be killed", than first off, that is a really fucking stupid thing to say, and second, I sincerely apologize for wanting genocide. Anyway, that was something that I wanted to get off my chest, and just bury the hatchet.

I've used the workshop, i've spoken to almost all the admins, WHAT MORE DO YOU FUCKING WANT!!! 4 fucking years of this shit, and no one seems to help except MrDupin, the one who actually cares. you want to know how hard it took me to get at least one story on this site known, i fucking looked up words in the dictionary, read other short scary stories, even created characters to fit in with these stories, and to think they could make it to today's media... thank you for ruining my chances for being known in this pathetic world. 4 FUCKING YEARS!!!
