So, make a copy of /path/to/rt2/WebRT/html/Ticket/Create.html
containing only the Elements that you want. Put it in 
/path/to/rt2/local/WebRT/html/Ticket/Create.html.

Or use the SelfService interface at

http://your.rt.server/SelfService/

to allow users to submit tickets.

As Darren said, if you want to go down this path, you want
to look at the enhanced-mailgate.
