where there's less likely to be people who really dislike you. Try building up people who think you're a decent bloke offline.
Also, it's probably not the best idea to post things that you know for certain will offend other people. If you act decently for a long enough length of time, without rising to any bait, then people's opinions will change. It may take a long time, though.
If you feel it may lead to you feeling able to go to a bash, and this is something you really want to do, then itd be worth it.
