What the hell am I doing wrong. I want this story to be great...but unfortunately it is hated. https://www.fimfiction.net/story/369500/the-apocalypse
Can I ask an honest question? Do people hate my guts and just like to spam my stories with dislikes?

4487359 I know I think that might be it
To be honest, I think that at this point, it might very well be your past reputation haunting you.
Hey man remember me?. Do you have discord? I really want to help you write.
You asked for honest opinions, let me give you one. For the most part, people tend to leave a dislike on a given story typically because they feel that the quality is low or they see some other significant problem with it. Most writers also tend to listen to the constructive criticism that often comes with it but throughout your 160+ stories, you've taken NONE of it to heart, listened to absolutely NONE of it and applied NONE of it to later stories. Now, personally, I think I have a better chance of getting hit by a meteorite than you do of actually getting anything from my comment but for some reason I feel compelled to try anyway so carefully read this over a hundred or so times slowly and carefully so I'm not wasting my time. I truly hope you prove me wrong. If you respond to my comment with a one liner or short little five word excuse, then my effort was in vain. What you need to do is take a little break from writing a story every single day. Take a week or even two, three, however long it takes you to come up with an idea. Try to make a complex and intricate plot. Something that takes a while to think of. While taking your break, take time to READ others' stories too. Learn from them. Pay attention to how they word things, the type of grammar and punctuation that makes for a properly written story. READ OTHER STORIES AND LEARN FROM THEM. Particularly ones that have a positive like/dislike ratio for good measure. TAKE TIME TO THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO APPLY TO FUTURE ONES. Really go back to all the comments you've gotten and write them down if you have to. Pick them apart and really try to understand them because kid, you haven't at all. If you want to be a good writer, listen to others who have been doing it well for a while and don't tell me you have because we all know you haven't. Bottom line, just take a step back for a while because you have long burnt yourself out by writing a story or two every single day. Take a break for even a month or two plus if you have to as a lot of people (myself included) have found that it works. Look around at your environment. Search for some kind of inspiration and for the love of all that is good and holy in this world, don't let my time and effort of typing this advice go down the shitter because you paid no mind to it, I've already got enough of a drinking problem. I don't expect you to but I hope you prove me wrong. Like I said, read this many, many, many times and if you choose to comment in response, make sure it's not just an excuse or just "I'll try harder" NO! Do NOT gimme that! If you want to respond, make it a good long one. If you put in even half the time and effort into that, that I put into this, then maybe there's hope for you after all. PROVE...ME...WRONG...

4488131 Thanks!
4488153 I did try to think up an intricate plot with Apocalypse and it still didn't work. Nothing will help me as it seems that I'll never improve even if I want to! I have read bunch of stories on Fimfiction and none of them has given me any ideas on how to improve
4492685 Well, at this point, the only person who can help you is you. I tried to throw in my own two bits so that's what you'll have to go by. Good luck with whatever you plan on doing next and think about what I said about just stepping back and taking a break for a month or two. *tips hat* I bid you good day.
*slowly walks away, disappearing into the fog*
4492943 I know that! Thanks I will
