Site Rules

Rules (Revision as of 3/14/2019)

We finally did an update on the rules. Please read them carefully, and please note that they are subject to change.

Please note that being ignorant of the rules is not an acceptable excuse to break them.

Quality
We now have a standard for trollpastas to prevent clutter. Our standards are not high, all we ask is that your pasta has a point to it, and try to avoid making it look like spam.

Etiquette
Be polite to other users and administrators. No personal insults, stalking, or harassment of any kind.

Obey Wikia's terms of use
Please try to abide by Wikia/FANDOM's terms of service.

Images
No screamer gifs, seizure inducing gifs, pornographic videos or images, anything that is too graphic, or in any way harmful.

Vandalism
No vandalizing pages or adding unnecessary edits. This includes pointless synonym changing.

Do not edit other users' profile pages.

Spam Pages
Try to make your trollpasta more than just one pointless sentance.

Making a page that is nothing but a banging on the keyboard (i.e. "SDGHLSJgkg;hdgis") is considered spam.

Categories
Please read the category list so you can correctly categorize your pages. Do NOT add categories that have nothing to do with your story.

Remember to categorize your pages!!!! And try to categorize them correctly.

It is against the rules to create categories, unless the category was one on the original Trollpasta wiki (this excludes obscure tags).

Do not hijack a categories page and turn it into a story.

Please do not add the categories Suggested Reading, Classics, Pasta of the Month or Fail of the Month to your own stories, these are administrator-only categories.

And just a reminder, '''the Crappypasta category is ONLY for Creepypastas that suck, not for Trollpastas! and please note that the Not Sure if Troll or Trying to Be Serious category is only '''for stories we aren't sure are bad Creepypastas or straight forward Trollpastas.

FIRST CREEPYPASTA ASSPATS ONLY PLZ is only to be given to Creepypastas where authors beg for leniency because it is their first story. This category is not be given to users' first stories, especially without the disclaimer.

Offensive Content
Due to the fact that the Trollpasta wiki was targeted for its offensive content, we have to have rules against anything too offensive. We do not allow homophobia, racism, sexism, any kind of slurs, or anything political. This is also means you cannot use characters in your stories that would otherwise be controversial such as political or religious figures.

Comment Rules
Do not use the comment section to insult or attack other users.

Do not use the comment section to advertise anything, including your trollpasta.

Keep your comment on subject. Do not post anything not relating to the story.

Blogs
Blogs are supposed to be used as blogs and nothing else.

Do not post stories in the form of blog posts.

Do not tag your blog posts.

Do not comment on "ancient" blogs (blogs that have not had anything added to them in over a month).

Unfinished Pages
Please note that we do not accept unfinished pages anymore.

Multiple Part Stories
We no longer accept multiple-page stories. Please keep your story on one page.

No Sockpuppeting
We do not allow Sockpuppets or alternate accounts. Sockpuppet/alts will be permabanned and the user's main account will be warned.

Re-uploaded Pastas
It is against the rules to re-upload a deleted page.

Rules for Admins
Please do not promote any users without permission. Thank you.
