I wouldn't call you that at all! Well, I don't use words like that in the first place, but even so I wouldn't. *hugs* It's very understandable to get disappointed when you really try your best and hardest and only get a few replies for it. That happens to me a lot.(Though it's worse when you get no comments at all.)
It's certainly not a reflection on its quality! If I were too make a guess, it would be that many OP fans right now feel full to the brim with angst and dramatic tension from canon, and maybe prefer either smut or fluffy fics to read.
Also, I think as we haven't seen the non-Luffy Strawhats in canon for a loooong time now (except for the extremely brief cover stuff), interest in them might be waning when canon no longer gives us new material to muse on. This would probably effect a non-common pairing a lot. (For instance, I joined a Sanji/Usopp comm lately but there's very rarely anything posted to it.)
