Right now, it seems to me that you don't want to make up for a lot of the less-than-intelligent things you've done. You just want us to forget all about it and like you. It doesn't work that way, honey, I'm sorry. The reason people are getting on your case is because you've been incredibly immature; if you want them to get off your case, it's not going to happen all at once, but a great way to start displaying your maturity is by taking responsibility for your actions. Because, in the end, they are your actions. And just as you have a right to take said actions (i.e. writing what you like, saying what you like), we have a right to dislike and even chastise you for those actions.
This is the internet, hon. No one is going to know automatically that you have Asperger's. No one is going to judge you by any standard but how you present yourself. I know it can be harsh, and everyone starts somewhere. However, the fact that you seem to be unable to handle the consequences of your self-presentation and deal with them under your own power. Honestly? When the whole thing started turning into a fiasco, I actually did attempt to send you a polite private message with something along the lines of explaining what you were doing wrong and that it didn't have to be so bad as long as you recognized and fixed what you were doing wrong. For whatever reason, though, it seems you disabled private messaging so I just didn't bother putting any more effort into it.
But now? Asking for more attention and for everyone to tell you what you're doing wrong isn't going to work. People have already outlined in several other comments just what they think you've done wrong. Pay attention. That's the general gist I'm picking up from your comments; you're refusing to listen even when people are being polite. Instead you're defensive and making excuses and not really getting the point. You arguing or placing blame elsewhere isn't going to help the situation. You listening to what people have to say and then trying to work on those problems will. People don't like you snapping up all the fanfiction or art requests? Then back off and let others take them. Copying off another person's RP idea is met with disapproval? Apologize sincerely to all those involved and keep in mind that stealing in any form isn't going to score brownie points. Others don't like your fanfiction and think it's poorly made? Then look at the complaints and strive to improve on those mistakes - and accept criticism, especially when you yourself ask for it. People pointing out mistakes doesn't mean they have a grudge against you and your work, it means they've spotted ways to make your writing better and want you to improve.
It's really up to you, honey. No matter how much we try to get through to you, whether or not that succeeds is ultimately your choice. Keep that in mind, all right?

Considering that the above was the entire POINT of this comment, I think your responses should reflect the argument made, and not go off on a different point entirely.
Really, if you want to improve your standing, LISTEN to what other people are saying. You are not the only person in the world who can be right.
We're trying to HELP you understand what you're doing that makes us all so mad. If you don't listen to us, you're just making it worse. If you TRULY want to be better from now on, then do yourself a huge favor and LISTEN to us.
This has nothing to do with copying the RP. This has nothing to do with writing fanfiction. This has to do with BASIC INTERACTION. If you ignore what the other person is saying, then they aren't going to treat you kindly. Just... go through and actually READ the comments. Don't blanket statement everyone, because that WILL NOT win you any points, alright?
I'm not trying to be mean or bitchy or anything. I'm sincerely trying to help you, because you've asked so many people what you're doing wrong and you're apparently not getting it. Just... read the comments. It will help.
