Trust me on this; I have been on the recieving end of relentless mocking, and this doesn't even come close to that. Everybody is just trying their best to critique your work, and tough love is usually the best way to do that. Places like Creepypasta have a high standard on what constitutes a good story, and the basic reality is that your first attempt has fallen short. You shouldn't give up because of that though; if you really enjoy writing stories, take the criticism to heart and practice writing in order to improve on your skills.
