Worst Feedback You've Received Lately

[grantvigor]

In response to the 'nicest feedback' thread, I submit this for everyone to let us know the bitchiest and sometimes downright nasty things 'people' (and I use that term VERY loosely) have said about their work.

Granted, this might just be me, because despite the fact I write non-erotic crime fiction for a hobby and it goes very well, my erotic stuff is sometimes being received about as well as a fart in a crowded elevator full of asthmatic children.

Here's an example:


"Your story is utterly ridiculous. I have no problem with people having fantasies, but even then, they need to be reasonably plausible. I couldn't read another word after this two bit street hooker gets a fifty grand pick up. It was hilarious. Maybe you should try humour and satire."


Now, Gigolo is far-fetched I admit, but come on! At least be constructive about it.

Maybe they wanted their outrage to match the disproportion of a $50,000 payment for a hooker?

One of the worst

You got to be kidding. I could fill the Thread with such wonderful feedback/comments. LOL
Here's one I got on my story Coal Miner pt.4, for what it's worth, all four part's did receive an H.

This board really needs something lower than oo---maybe WHALE SHIT, that's in the bottom of the ocean! That's where this author and story belong.

Hope this wasn't one of my avid fans. haha

Maybe they wanted their outrage to match the disproportion of a $50,000 payment for a hooker?

maybe I shouldn't point out that the fifty grand was in English pounds, which is more like $100,000, but anyway... we all like to think that hookers charge you a fiver just so they come back to yours and have their first shower in about three weeks, but the truth is, although some are like this, you can trust from my own private experiences that there are some incredibly high-class hookers that don't have hairy legs and speak deeper than that guy who does movie advert voiceovers.

I won't go into much detail, because I don't think my friend will be too happy, but he got an inheritance of a house, sold it and spent fifty grand on this brunette called Caressa (seriously, I am not making this up... believe me, I wish I was), and I only know that because he invited me to come along too. Punchline being not all hookers, male or female, are dirty, scabby, venereal disease carrying whores who rent out an unfurnished apartment for £50 a week only because they sleep with their landlord. Apparently, and this was from the horse's mouth (so to speak... she was stunning), she was one of the cheapest...

Go figure...

But thanks for the input, I appreciated it.

I gotta admit, that is damn harsh... definitely one of those examples where you really wanted the other person's name to reply. I swear it's the same group of people, though, just hanging around Literotica all day, trawling the stories and thinking up new, inventive and incredibly harsh ways of insulting people without being accountable for their 'opinion'. Grrr.

If you want to write and want to leave comments open, you will get your share of idiots. Just a fact of life. I do have to say that I get twenty wonderful comments for every bad one. I guess it just comes with the territory.

I do feel sorry for new writers who are all excited and hoping for good feedback and they get an asshole comment like I mentioned. All we can do, is write our stories. Get it edited, and say to yourself, "I did my best."

Good luck in your future writings.
I wish you the best.

Worst feedback I received recently was none at all.

Really bad

Pretty much the worst story I have ever read on Literotica.

I was extremely irritated with the story in that it seemed to have great potential with no delivery. Why build us up to show us nothing in the end? Don't do it again. Readers have needs too.

Then I added "no sex" to the description...

Here are a couple on a recent story:


Had it

I agree,Ryan had it,why share.After this there will be more bikes in front of her house than at school. Story just took a nose dive. Turning into Sc-Fi, sorry.

Delete the above comment.

Silly statement!
04/18/08 By: 18 year olds will share anything or do anything to get some of that great sex she doles out. Good story, by the way.

Delete the above comment.

No Way

18 year old's don't share their pussy,sorry but that was a turn off.

Delete the above comment.

Marian and Ryan Ch. 04
Showing Comments 1-3 of 3

The one in the middle was right. The other two didn't know what they talking about. Marian is not Ryan'a girl friend, by the way. She is an older neighbor woman who is teaching him about sex.

I just got this PC, on my latest story, which is about consensual and mutually enjoyable sex. At least he included an email address.

Seriously? If you need to write a post about "the worst feedback" then you are probably a writer who listens to the dribble. You are probably not a real writer.

All the public comments I've gotten have been either highly positive or simply nothing at all. Apparently people either love me or don't notice me. I like to assume that when there are no comments people have just been left speechless with amazement (that's also why they don't vote sometimes).

I was actually expecting a ton of negative comments when I started writing. What gives?

I like to think that people get so turned on while reading a story by me that they start wanking or frigging, and cum before they finish. That way, they don't vote or leave a PC.

It is unusual to have somebody voting and leaving a PC without reading a story.

What does "siggy" mean? The address is an email address, not a Lit. handle.

It depends what you write. Most of my stuff gets very little feedback. When I get bored with the silence, I write something about a cheating wife that gets away with it, and I know I'll get tons of hate-mail! (for example, see bottom story in signature)......Carney

I meant put the PC as part of your signature...

When I think of "worst feedback" I don't think of most negative or insulting. I think of the dumbest or most irrelevant feedback. I somebody tells me and the world that a given story sucks, I assume they have at least read it.

 

[humminbean]

I just got started here, and had four very positive comments before I even knew how to look for them.

The bad ones will come, I'm sure. Even though this is my first fiction, I've written lots of non-fiction. Negative to deranged comments will arrive sooner or later, and I'll just ignore them, as usual.

I've received wonderful feedback on my How-to story about surviving without DSL.

And one complaint that it wasn't informational so shouldn't be in the contest.

But I got feedback today that gave me precise steps to take to fix the DSL in my own house, things that he and his family did to fix theirs. (Pretty much resetting the modem).

*sigh*

The problem with our DSL was that it WASN'T a problem in our house. Apparently he didn't read the story at all.

Received this one on my latest submission...

I'm having a hard time buying this story. Guy says he can see the future, and because he has a cool phone, girl buys it? I can't see a future doctor going that way.

He at least left his lit name. Of course he/she doesn't have anything submitted here. :caning:
