The Damn Batman wrote: Amen, brother. The thing is that there isn't really a fandom for these individual pastas, so they try to bring it here. I made a thread about this a while ago, and people mostly agreed that this site isn't a fandom. I think most of the people who think Creepypastas are cute moved to Deviant Art, and now they hate us. I had no clue about an existence of a fandom on DA until someone told me about it about a month back. I think they're most of the people that get banned for this kind of stuff, considering they were the people who REALLY backlashed when Sonic.exe and Jeff the Killer were deleted. For the record, being part of a fandom doesn't necessarily mean that a person thinks a character is cute or not. But yeah, the CP Wiki itself isn't a 'fandom'. The CreepyPasta fandom is spread out across the net (dA, Tumblr, Vkontakte, FB, etc.) and as far as I can tell, most of them treat this wiki as an archive/encyclopedia for pastas, which is probably part of why people were so up in arms when JtK and Sonic.exe got removed from the site(well, at least in my case).

As for the dA crowd, the majority of them aren't the ones doing the "what pasta monster would you go on a date with?" stupidity. Painting the entire group with the same brush because of the idiocy of a few random fangirls doesn't help matters either. The 'omg i wanna marry -insert character' crowd is just as annoying for the dA/tumblr crowd as it is to the wiki community, if not moreso. Case in point: two of the newer Creepypasta writers/creators on dA/tumblr almost got driven out of the community/fandom because their characters are canonly paired together, and the 'omg he's so cute i wanna be his waifu' fangirls started harrassing the female character's creator over tumbly simply because the character was paired up with the fictional guy they were obsessing over and didn't want some fictional girl ruining their delusions.

So yeah, most of the dA crowd doesn't like the "omg i'm -character x-'s waifu!" idiots either. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to go keep one of those same morons from vandalizing another wiki so it suits her twisted desires.
