revenge Creepypastas are inherently cancerous things and are the lowest form of horror, they are one of the main reasons outsiders fear Creepypasta because they read stories about revenge fantasies that are in turn glorified by silly children that think they are being rebellious and "new" (kids have done this centuries before creepypasta was around so no kids, you're not really being rebels at all).

The whole point of stories like Jeff and so on are basically "show violence / disturbing things so we look "edgey".." - movies like Cannibal Holocaust, Hostel and Serbian Film do all that exploitation nonsense far better than any of these stories that are really only popular with kids (older views easily see them as the exploiters they are).
