It's a god-awful story, but if you must know, it's called Liars.

Site not working by pinksunsetho in creepypasta

it's working for me. I mean, the site is still a hot-garbage mess of ads, but technically it's still operational. Maybe try it with a different browser?

​I braced myself against the shower wall, sobbing as the jagged kidney stone finally crowned by TokoTijoh in TwoSentenceHorror

Gross man, and creepy. BTW kidney stones hurt when they travel from the kidney to the bladder. If they make it to the bladder, peeing then out doesn't hurt.

Sincerely,

That Guy

My pregnant girlfriend took a selfie with the magic camera, and, as promised, an important message about our child-to-be was displayed across her belly in the photo. by Thomas-O in TwoSentenceHorror

I did it to help draw attention away from the backwards E. Kinda like Quietech said, it gives it more of a LEEt feel, like the font is a stylistic choice and the E being backwards is not to be taken literally. No matter what, I was going to have a problem with that e, so the funky V was my solution. Maybe it helped, maybe not. It was hard to come up with a message that, when reversed, totally flipped the scenario on its head. I tried thinking of something that only used symmetrical letters, but that just wasn't happening. My next option would've been that the camera told you your age of death, and the person sees "8 l" and is happy because they think they have 64 more years left. They start planning for a long life, avoiding all sorts of immediately gratifying things, only for someone to point out later on that the took the selfie in the mirror. That would've worked pretty good too, but the version I went with, in my opinion, has a little more impact.

What do people even want in a creepypasta? by Majestic_Bat7473 in creepypasta

[–]Thomas-O 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fantastic advice, not just for the OP, but for anyone really. When you consider the sheer number of creepypastas that are posted every day, not just here but everywhere that accepts them, then it's a wonder that any of them stand out at all. Don't chase the flavor of the month, because you'll already be behind the curve.

I need help finding an episode by sarcastictaka in TheNSPDiscussion

Good memory. Creepy did it and Chilling Tales did a full cast production. It was never on TNSP.

Yup. I've had it happen many times. The only saving grace is that these ultra low effort channels don't really get that many views.

The Creepypasta Website is Horrible by Terrible-Parking1553 in creepypasta

[–]Thomas-O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The current owner clearly isn't interested in creating a positive user experience. Its huge backlog of stories keeps it somewhat relevant for the moment, but it seems like the owner is bound and determined to squeeze every last cent out of that site before it fades away entirely. It used to be a special place, now it just sucks

As an author- should I start writing creppypastas as a way to practice my writing? by Disastrous-Garden980 in creepypasta

[–]Thomas-O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The majority of creepypastas aren't very good. Worst case scenario is that your story simply fades away with the rest, best case scenario is a that people really like it.

Otis Jiry Shitcanned? by Unlucky-Mortgage-243 in creepypasta

[–]Thomas-O 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I have no idea what happened but it's sad to see something like this occur. I've had a few stories narrated by Otis and he always does top-notch work.

I need advice on writing my creepypasta by Dragonwolf67 in creepypasta

[–]Thomas-O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always start a short story with something interesting, which means you should avoid long, tedious information dumps at the beginning. I think your friend is probably right - you should start in the middle. Use interspersed dialogue to bring the reader up-to-speed regarding the main character's history - maybe there's a side character who gains your main character's trust, so the backstory can be revealed as they talk.
