Any creepypasta that is selected in either CPotM or SOG-read are basically regarded as being good stories (if it has Mutahar's approval for the latter). It isn't the standard, per say, for users to reach that sort of success in their work, but the ones chosen are chosen for a reason: having good enough quality for the community to recognize it.

The Hall of Fame idea sounds pretty good. The only thing I fear is that favoritism would likely have a hand in people being elected and that a lot of people would probably be staff (not saying that non-staff members of the community don't do anything, after all the Historical Archive suggestion was provided by a regular user) but otherwise I do like the idea. Might I suggest listing why people are chosen? Would probably give new users ideas as to where to start helping the SOG community out in making it a better place!
