I got my first "angry" comment. So far, that's the only bad feedback I have gotten. I deleted it, but then I thought "Is that bad form?"
Can anyone over advice on comments / deleting them?
So far your stories have decent scores for LW. There are a ton of threads here about LW and comments there. You might want to read them.
I don't delete (except 1) I let the readers have their say, even the mentally deficient ones that inhabit the place. I've gotten some awesome feedback from readers and some awesome insults. Some of them are really creative.
BUT...I have a reaction. When I see an author who has obviously been deleting comments, you can tell because everything left is glowing praise, I drop the score down. Or I'll go with no vote, no comment.
Why? Because I have no idea what they're deleting and what it said. And that smacks of censorship to me.
