I too agree with Birchy. Your story, in my opinion, is really great! If I had written this - although a few of the comments are, admittedly, not very thoughtful to say the least - I would be really pleased. First of all, you know that people have read your story. Secondly, people have said something other than "This is really cool!". Perhaps I'm just strange, I don't know, but I hate it when people say that about my work. Its just... too vague. It makes me think that people have just skimmed through it, noticed the length, thought Hey, this person has obviously put a lot of effort into this, I should say that it's cool to make them feel appreciated. This is nice, but what I want to know is; what's cool about this, how is this good, are there any bad parts, where can I improve?

The users that have commented have been slightly thoughtless to your feelings, but they have given you tips, if delivered in a rather rash way.

So, take all of this feedback as compliments. Pretend that all of these people are giving you advice on how to make your story better - because in actual fact they are - and carry on writing. If this is what you enjoy to do, then do it - even if nobody that has commented seems to love this story, remember that there may well be millions of viewers (including me) just  begging to read the next chapter!
