We already have a system put in place for higher quality contributions. The Fanon namespace is more than adiquate in providing users with an outlet for creative writing about pre-made and player-made sims. There is a built in minimum and it is more studiously policed. It is easier to keep track of because the user MUST create an account and in doing so they can link the stories of their favorite sims into one fanon. Anonimous IPs are all well and good, but multiple people can use the same IP address or their IP adress could change, as is the case with dynamic IPs.

However, this is now a moot point as the decision has already been made and the Player Stories pages have been locked. You are still welcome to retrieve your stories and create Fanon out of them if you wish. You have a month in which to do so, but even after that month I believe the stories will still be in the archive and thus you may be able to petition an admin to retrieve your story.
