August 26th, 2013. A user by the name "Oderyus" came to chat. He took note of all the shitty spam pages on the wiki, and decided to do something about it. He added the [[Template:D|delete template]] to a shit ton of pages, and nearly every single one of them were deleted. The Trollpasta Wiki lost over 400 pages because of this. Sense he kept adding the template to a shit on of pages, his edit count grew. Grew to the point where he was eligible for adminship. He asked Skelly if he could become an admin, but Skelly didn't approve, stating he was "too new" to become an admin. Oderyus was disappointed by this, but he instead became a rollback and chat moderator.

While pretty much all the admins liked Oderyus, one of them didn't. Which was me. Many days I would be in the chatroom all alone with Oderyus, and his attitude was just awful. An example being sometimes whenever anyone would say something, he'd reply back with "idc" (meaning "I don't care.") He was just a dick about everything. Not to mention he was extremely arrogant, douchey, and vandalized many wikis, such as the [http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Songs?diff=prev&oldid=874458 MLP] and [http://seddie.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Oderyus Seddie] wikis. The other admins also took notice of his shitty attitude and behavior. We had enough of his bullshit, and

*The wiki had zero quality control from the day the wiki was created, to early 2013. It wasn't until late 2013 when we started taking action on unfunny spam pastas. Sexually explicit pastas were also allowed, until we started re-enforced Wikia's Terms of Use.

*Anonymous editing was once allowed here. However, on September 27th, 2013 the [[Thread:26146|first thread]] petitioning to get rid of anon editing was created. Anon editing did get disabled eventually, but it some how got re-enabled again sometime after (IIRC). So [[Thread:66710|another thread]] petitioning to get rid of anon editing was created October 4th, 2014. Unlike the previous thread, this one was heavily opposed, and thus anon editing didn't get disabled. It wasn't until on March 5th, 2015 when a [[Thread:86955|new thread]] petitioning to get rid of anon editing for the 3rd time finally got it disabled for good. What a long battle...

*We did a Christmas theme in 2013. EVIL PATRIXXX had a Santa Claus hat and a white beard, plus the wiki buttons were red (by "buttons" I mean the "edit" button and stuff like that.)

We didn't do a Christmas theme for 2014, but we brought the tradition back for 2015. This time we decorated the homepage with Christmas decorations.
*Trollpasta Wiki has went through many meme fads. A lot of these blew up for a short period of time. Here's a list of them.

**Shrek is Love pastas (2013 - 2014). "Shrek is Love" (now deleted) was an incredibly popular trollpasta about Shrek partaking in sexual acts with two little kids (there was also [[The Tale of Shrek]], which made before Shrek is Love). As fucked up as that sounds, it blew up. Many "X is Love" pastas were flooding the wiki. Not only were most of these pastas blatant rip-offs of the original Shrek is love pastas, they were  also violating Wikia's [http://www.wikia.com/Terms_of_Use Terms of Use]. In 2014/2015, we decided to delete any shitty Shrek is love clone we came across, and we even deleted the original Shrek is love pastas due to their explicit sexual nature. The original (The Tale of Shrek) is still up, however.
