No, it is pretty stringent about most things, to the point where the full rules could fill a fifteen-page instruction manual. I understand your frustration. These rules have slowly built up and ossified as a result of shifting leadership and creepypasta trends, and could probably be streamlined considerably - but I don't envy the one who has to do it. In the meantime, they're pretty useful for weeding out at least the unreadably terrible stuff (though standards could be higher, I think).
