Thumbs down I've had it

That's right, I've got enough.

Why can't *I* come up with something which everyone likes? I'm trying, I always have been trying, all to no avail. Whenever I create a level, there's always a LITTLE something wrong. I try to be original, and when I don't fail (rarely) then hardly anyone notices. But when someone evidently takes my concept, they get all the praise "oh very nice, keep it up gj mate"

How come I can't come out as an appreciated level designer? I've been creating levels for a little less than 5/6 years (I haven't been keeping track, sue me), gradually getting better and better. And what for? No one likes my levels, no one finds my efforts well done, and I can't even make a good screenshot of my own level. How the hell is that possible I don't know.

If it weren't enough I can't even get any ideas anymore. Last time I had an idea for a SP level, it couldn't have been done without basically recoding the game. Why do my ideas have to be so complicated to make. They're all so simple when I think of them. But the thing is, I lose a good idea when I'm about to get one. Is that some sort of subliminal discouragement? Or what?

Why is that I wasted three and half a year doing what no one would like? Just when I thought I would know most of all issues of JJ2 level design, there's just someone which proves me wrong, and renders my creations useless.

But (-)(-)(-), why.
