I was once told I was a BNF in a fandom I loved and you know what? I was incredibly flattered! This person had me in their mental list of usernames they thought of when they thought of their favourite fic in that fandom, and that meant so, sooo much to me. I didn't get involved in drama in that fandom (there wasn't much drama anyway) and I wasn't rude or cruel to people. I simply wrote a lot of fic over a long period of time, so people began to recognise my name.

In comparison, the wording in this secret makes you seem kind of unpleasant. Someone says they consider you recognisable within the fandom and your reaction can basically be summed up as "urgh"? For all your hatred of being associated with pretention, that reaction is pretty pretentious. And saying "I'll take it" makes it seem like you're somehow doing them a favour by graciously accepting the compliment as if it's some sort of trial for you. The text at the end is much nicer, but by having the font shrinking until it's almost fading out in comparison to the initial text makes the final few lines seem like they're insincere and something you thought you should add. I don't know, it just doesn't give a very nice impression.
