Nothing will change for the better from our current state if our community continues to praise and even believe in poorly made creepypasta with no thought behind them. I know I'm sounding egotistical, but what I'm saying is for the better of all good writers on this wiki. Please, for the love of Notch (who himself is sick of some of our most popular creepypasta), help out writers like me, who've been here a decent portion of their life writing original stories intended to legitimately send chills down peoples' spines like Herobrine once did, and break out of the box that a "Minecraft" creepypasta sets (don't get me wrong, Herobrine was a well-done piece of lore. It's things like Entity 303 that really get me. Even Null is better than that garbage.)

'''Now, Chicken, I'm about to pick on your story, Green Steve. Don't get me wrong, here's your prior "no offense", but Green Steve is and has become nothing but a meme and inside joke among the wiki users. It has foundations and potential for a more in-depth, full-fledged story, but somehow its crippled, virtually cliche state has found its way into being made into a fan series on YouTube.''' Why I became ticked off at this, is that the top of "Most Visited Articles" trumped other adaptable creepypastas that were shadowed and obscured, one that comes to mind being Frost Girl.

I've always wanted something like We Have Her or Player to top the most visited articles, as well as some other creepypasta I'm proud of. But you know what lingers at 6th on that list? Darkness of the Farlands, with its competition being the legendary Herobrine (something I would be alright with at number one) and Entity 303: The Truth (not a creepypasta but still a great exposal and eye-opener). Darkness of the Farlands, something I wrote 4 years ago, revamped 2 years ago, and only now has it come into that spotlight, albeit at its fading point. Despite my other stories far excelling in well-doneness in comparison to this mediocrely interesting (albeit technically unfinished due to my lack of inspiration for its sequels) entity creepypasta, this one trumps everything else that I have written.

Banning anyone who believes in our mostly fabricated stories may have seemed like a drastic step to me before, but now as I myself get angered by such idiots, I've become fond of the decision and think it's a step in the right direction. We have great writers, and this little corner of the internet is their chance to shine, but it can't happen without our community knowing right versus wrong, true versus fake.

It's not Chickens fault that Green Steve is bably used.

Still, I see your point.
