This is why stories get deleted. yes but they get deleted because of opinion and doesnt mean you have to take it down. there is a reason why there is a comment and rate box. these people are overusing their power of opinion and think they can do what ever they want on creepypastas that were written Honestly, this site has a lot of objective criteria. It is possilble to say that a story consistently lacks proper spelling and grammar. While there may be some wiggle room, there are rules. And, writing can be judged on a technical level.

Aside from the banned subjects list, (which there is already a prodcedure to submit them via appeal) what you choose to write about is not regulated. There is no bar to pass in terms of being scary. If you want to do a more subtle and creepy piece it is as valid as an outright terrifying piece. I have seen sites that regulate on very subjective grounds and this site is not one of them. It is only about the quality of the writing, which as previously mentioned, can be judged just as it would be by a teacher or editor.

If you want someone to help you edit your story feel free to contact me.
