We, signers of this petition, are sicked and tired of seeing what has been dubbed "The Motorcycle Story" in Elftown user's houses. It may have been cute the first time, but after seeing it in every members' house, it gets more than a little tiring. However, we realize that by banning it completely it would limit people's freedom. Therfore we propose this solution: A wiki that has the motorcycle story is made and people who would normally post the thing in their house simply link to it or put a banner up in their house. They should also have the option to put it in their guestbook or diary.
Due to the fact that comments next to names take space we will be removing them. If you feel you must get your hate of the story off your chest then join one of the related wikis and leave your comment there, in addition to signing. Thank you!

We need a banner! Go submit your ideas here: The MSP Banner Contest

UPDATE!

This petition is now closed, since we have achieved our objective. The Motorcycle Story, along with all similar copy-pasted things, are now against the Uploading Art Rules. We will leave all the signatures up as a sign of how many people supported us, and thank you to you all. Here's the new rule:

G-5. No random copied writings in (descriptions of) houses.
Writing not your own is not allowed, unless someone wrote it especially for you (a friend).
Example: No copied stories, song-lyrics etc
Short quotes, or the likes, that don't exceed 4 phrases/lines/sentences are OK.
Copied questionnaires are allowed with a limit of 50 questions. Therefore choose your questions wisely.

Art on the Wiki
Writings
Copying writings to a wiki is OK, as long as you don't claim the material (the wikiname shouldn't suggest it either).
If the owner requests for it to be removed, it will be done so.
Questionnaires longer than 50 questions can be put in wikis as well. See for example questionnaires.

2006-03-12 [metalmeister]: I think the story should actually be completely banned. It could never happen. Whoever wrote it obviously has never even been on a motorcycle!

2006-03-12 [SassySwede]: I completely agree with you. Anyone who has been on a motorcycle would know that the story is completely inacurate.

2006-03-12 [coehlo]: It's a story that doesn't need to be completely accurate, however, saying that I think the people who have it on their pages are complete mongoids. Most of them are cam-whores any way. Fuck the motorbike story. Unite and join the Revolution !

2006-03-14 [Miss.Kayree]: So... this petition is for banning the story..?

2006-03-14 [Cina]: Anyone who finds this story touching anymore is a numbskull. >.<

2006-03-15 [Silver Phantoms]: No, read what it says up at the top. -.-

2006-03-15 [Miss.Kayree]: Ah.. so it's for banning it in people's houses..

2006-03-17 [black jewel]: i agree with all of u

2006-03-19 [Soul Assassin]: it's a stupid pointless story, who cares what the dickhead with a broken bike who didn't care about his gf does?! and who in their right mind would have any respect for the moron who let the girl he cared about het on his bike if it was broken to begin with?!whoever had this idea was a genious ^.^

2006-03-19 [Seamus Schwathe]: I'm just so happy with how fast it's filling up!

2006-03-19 [Soul Assassin]: :D yeah it's awesome! kudos

2006-03-19 [POG]: ahem....Who HATES the motercycle story?......

2006-03-19 [Leelo]: ok so I signed this pettition now let me get it straight, it's against the lame "true love" stories right?

2006-03-19 [Stray Kitty]: Yep.

2006-03-19 [Leelo]: alright good ^^

2006-03-19 [Cina]: no no, this is the list to sign if you are giving your soul to Elftown as a donation! (Hee hee)

2006-03-19 [Leelo]: right....

2006-03-19 [Kiddalee]: Well, it seems more geared towards the Motorcycle Story, though I would prefer it to be a way to stop all the lame stories.

2006-03-19 [Miss.Kayree]: hmn.. i dunno if i'm going to sign this or not.. yeah the stories are stupid, but that's all they are.. stupid.. they're not offending anyone, and there are apparentally people who do like them...

2006-03-20 [Stray Kitty]: That's why I suggest possibly having an official wiki with the stories on them and the people who would nornally put them in their house could just link to the wikis oe put the stories in their diary.

2006-03-20 [Leelo]: Yeah i think you got yourself a good idear going stray ^^

2006-03-20 [Seamus Schwathe]: Yes, you do! *bows*

2006-03-23 [Bratt]: hrm how funny I started a wiki kinda like this. whats wrong with this?

2006-03-25 [Sebhar]: I like that idea, Stray Kitty... just because something is annoying doesn't mean we should crush it. Younger siblings, for example.

2006-03-25 [Stray Kitty]: No I'm suggesting that they either link to a wiki or put it in their diary. But weeds are annoying (like younger siblings)

2006-03-27 [Seamus Schwathe]: How do we make the right people (i.e. the ones who could make such a policy) aware of this petition?

2006-03-27 [Cina]: perhaps the wiki bosses?

2006-03-27 [Seamus Schwathe]: ...maybe. We need many more signatures before we can do anything. They're coming in pretty fast, though...

2006-03-27 [Cina]: yup. Spread the word!

2006-03-27 [Seamus Schwathe]: It's in my mood.... put it in yours too!

2006-03-27 [i6]: i signed up!

2006-03-27 [Seamus Schwathe]: Yay! Another one!

2006-03-27 [Paul Doyle]: I just signed it.

2006-03-27 [Paul Doyle]: Is this going to be mentioned on the forums?

2006-03-27 [iippo]: Which forum did you have in mind? :)

2006-03-27 [Paul Doyle]: "Elftown Suggestions", which of course would (hopefully) spur discussions on the private crew forum.

2006-03-27 [Soul Assassin]: sounds good! anything to help get rid of that dispicable story >.<

2006-03-28 [Azuri]: whoo thank god im sick of seeing it every where! unless a ninja get put in and owns them both at the end i wish it would go away

2006-03-28 [i6]: the ninja did own them. they were being chased by ninjas, it was being told from the girls perspective and we all know shes a fucking tard so the ninjas went unmentiones

2006-03-28 [Cina]: I think the girl was a ninja, and knowing her boyfriend loved her yet she needed to kill him, cut his breaks and didn't wear a helmet so he could die and she would get away scott free..

2006-03-28 [Azuri]: XD i knew it!! damn sneaky ninjas www.askaninja.com
