I see that I am not the only person who has seemed to notice the sudden decline in Creepy Pasta-writing. I recently began to notice that creepy pasta has begun to lose popularity. There was a certain peak when creepy pastas were all the rage some years ago. I think the "new era" comment that the original user said is true, but not in the way they described. Everyone was reading them. Without going into this so much, I think that most of the users during that "zenith" period were mostly teens energized and excited by the stories, but now they're all too occupied with school or jobs to be reading and writing them now. Don't misinterpret my comment, though. I am not saying creepy pastas are gone or outdated or anything. But I will say the Golden Age of Creepy Pasta is gone. Anyone is free to disagree with me, but that is what I've gathered.
