The reason for this is because Wikia (and wikis in general) have a philosophy of openness and transparency when it comes to editing and communication between wiki members. (There used to be an "emailuser" function that allowed you to e-mail other users via their Wikia e-mail, but it was removed because it was easily abusable and/or because nobody used it.)

Where you post a pasta: Click the "Contribute" button on the top-right corner of the screen and then "Submit a Pasta" from the dropdown menu. You also have the option of posting it in the Writer's Workshop to get feedback before posting it to the main site.

Profiles vs. Contributions: I'll admit this could be confusing to someone who's new to wikis. The "Contributions" page is a special page designed to keep track of all your edits/posts you make on the wiki. You can list all the pastas you've contributed by linking them on your profile page, like this:

(Double square brackets create a link, asterisks create a bullet point.) Thank you! I understand. However, I still have a question: If you don't link the creepypasta you wrote on your profile page, then no one will be able to read your work even if they want to? I also noticed that most creepypastas doesn't have the authors name on it (or it's very well hidden...)
 * Pasta title 1
 * Pasta title 2
 * etc.
