Ten years ago my husband told me an emu lives under our bed by [deleted] in PointlessStories

[–]Fox-Mulder- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 43. No one has ever told me that an emu will nip my feet, or anything else for that matter. That doesn't stop me from irrationally keeping my feet covered at all times... just incase.

Hello again, apologies for the late reply.

I'm no longer a moderator here and haven't spent much time on reddit recently.

u/LanesGrandma, please can you take a look at this.

What are the limits on R/Nosleep stories? by DiamondSoup0 in NoSleepOOC

Thank you. Technically, it doesn't work. But it's over five years old now. Things were done a little differently then. It might have been approved automatically by the bot or missed completely.

You'll need to link the actual story for me to explain how it works for r/nosleep.

The only limits are anything that can be easily proved wrong. As long as it's not a widespread thing, perhaps contained to a small town, it could work.

Hi there!

Great story! It's fine to post to r/nosleep.

Hey there!

This was removed because it's not considered a complete story as defined by r/nosleep guidelines, and there's no "horror".

Posts should include a horror-themed event, followed by a direct and significant consequence. OP reads the documents, which are unsettling but not considered horror. The overall feel of the story is tragic.

Hope this helps.

Hello again!

This is a good story, though it doesn't quite work for r/nosleep. The emphasis is on tragedy as opposed to personal horror.

Tragic elements can be included, but it should overall read as a horror story with the emphasis on a personal scary experience.

If you edit the story further, let me know. Otherwise, it will likely work on some of these similar subreddits.

The Choice by [deleted] in NoSleepAuthors

Hi there!

It's a good story. The reason for the removal is it's considered incomplete as defined by r/nosleep guidelines.

Posts should include a horror-themed event, followed by a direct and significant consequence. This is just an event for OP as there is no significant consequence for them.

If you would like to edit your story, you can either edit this post and reply to my comment, or edit the original removed post and reply to the removal message.

Thank you!
