Just going to mirror what everyone else has said here, Mootles - you're a pretty great guy
The thing with humanity is everyone's got different tastes and interests, and what pleases some equally pisses off others. There's no middle ground that'll keep everyone happy, no way of being all things to all men to butcher an old phrase. The only way to live is to be happy in who you are.
That's not to say you should disregard what other people feel about you, not at all. What it does mean is that when someone makes a derogatory comment, cut out all the shit bits and work out what their actual concern is. There's no harm in changing who you are based on valid feedback, but there IS harm in hearing negative comments and stressing out over them to the nth degree. You're a great person, you've created a great community full of great people, and to do that there's gotta be something in that mystical head of yours which people like.
So take a step back, take some deep breaths, and remember: you're alive. You. Right now, it's you reading this. You're here, you're conscious, you exist, you're aware. It could've been someone else, or you might not have been here at all, but you are, and that's pretty fucking awesome. Make the most of what you have, push yourself to be more by all means, but be happy in the knowledge that we're all damn glad you're who you are
