On July 21st, 2011, [[User:Dronian|Dronain]] founded Trollpasta Wiki. Creepypasta Wiki only allowed [http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Troll_Pasta a handful of trollpastas on their site], so Trollpasta Wiki was created in order to be a site only dedicated to trollpastas. Trollasta Wiki's content ranged from being ALL CAPS poorly written stories about the most random things, to making fun of certain creepypastas and creepypasta cliches, and eventually hosting [[:Category:Deletion Log Refugees|deleted]] [[:Category:Bad Creepypasta Trying to Be Serious but Fails|failpastas]] from Creepypasta Wiki. Dronian was the only one running the site at the time, that is up until June 20th, 2012 when he made [[User:Furbearingbrick|Furbearingbrick]] (Fur) an admin. 4 months later, [[User:LOLSKELETONS|LOLSKELETONS]] (Skelly) joined the wiki, and started helping out. Fur took notice of Skelly, and suggested that he should apply for adminship. So he did just that, and [[User talk:Dronian#Admin_2|asked Dronian if he could be an admin]]. Dronain agreed, and made Skelly an admin on November 13th, 2012. Together, Fur and Skelly helped the site out with category organization, adding deleted pastas from Creepypasta Wiki, and blocked people who didn't update [[Project:List|The List]] [[User blog:LOLSKELETONS/ATTENTION ALL|within 24 hours]]. However, problems started accruing in January 2013 with troublesome anonymous users.
 
An anon [[User talk:Furbearingbrick/Talk Archive 1#Duplicate images|started harassing Fur]] [[User talk:Furbearingbrick/Talk Archive 1#Blocked, (Not Raging)|on her talk page]], making threats, and ranting about how "corrupt" she and the other Creepypasta Wiki staff were. Fur went to Dronian about this, and proposed that anonymous editing should be disabled. Skelly and a user by the name "[[User:TheShadyNerd|TheShadyNerd]]" supported this proposal. A few days later, [[User talk:Dronian#HELP|Fur went to Dronian once again, but this time in a crisis]]. She suggested that anonymous editing should once again be disabled due to the anon vandalizing pages and switching IPs, and also suggested that TheShadyNerd should be an admin to help combat these problems. While anonymous editing didn't get disabled, the issues with the troublesome anon eventually got resolved.
