Can you believe this?

[Debbie]

I received this email and was so upset.
I know now thinking about it and realising it's his problem but cannot understand this guy.
Maybe some serious therapy needed here. Or maybe he has CDR?(computer disfunction rage) What would you do if you received this? And no none of my stories here are incomplete. Some are chapter 1 and 2

I've posted my reply (which shamefully I admit that I have already sent on impulse I now regret I should have ignored him)

I spend a lot of time downloading these stories to read and the largest part of my time is taken up correcting spelling and grammatical errors that you people make! So the least you can do is finish the fucking thing before you post it!! At least that way I get to read the whole thing, whether it be good or bad.

Dear Dickhead
Thank you so much for the feedback
Here's some for you
You are obviously of below average intelligence and perhaps not even normal
Do you have a medical condition? Or perhaps you are just an asshole?
I am a nice person who would normally never talk like this but you are completely out of line. First of all you don't even tell me which story you are referring too
And I will admit there maybe spelling mistakes but there is no need to react this way
I am not a dumb bitch!
At Literotica the stories are submitted by people who want to share their work (and we write for free) and noone wants to be emailed be aggressive, angry, twisted people like yourself
So in parting I say BUGGER OFF!!!

I wonder if he's aware that these stories are copyrighted and he isn't supposed to copy them without permission.

Debbie, please keep sharing your heart and your work here. Thousands of people appreciate the work you have put into your stories, only a few people with small minds would even think like that.
No one knows the effort of a writer like a writer. I've published some articles in a few places so I understand the rewrites and the attention you pay to anything you put out in public.

Good luck debbie and keep it coming, so we can keep cumming!

Big mistake to respond.

Writers and artists must have very thick skins, an aura of invicibility. Remember, art is disposable, and the odds are the critics will outwiegh the admirers during your lifetime. The former rather being easier than the latter.

I think copyright law refers to the redistribution of copied materials. But I am ready for the lawyer-types to hand me my head on this one. My only area of knowlege is software copyright.

Just read "A Night to Remember" Excellent piece, so descriptive, I could feel the fire warming the room and the heat between the three lovers. Don't listen to assholes, you write very, very well.

Don't sweat it

Debbie, i got feedback saying that I was a dumbass and should go back to reading comic books and watching Barney. He also stated I was a high school dropout. Obviously he knows nothing about me because HE'S ALL WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Debbie]

Thank you so much for the great replies and boosts to my confidence
I love this site and submitting my work here
I know I am too sensitive and will not respond anymore to this dumbwit
I shared ane aired my anger and feel better now
Thanks to you all

some people

some people are so rude it makes me ashamed to be of the same species - i work with people all day - abd let me tell you - some are real F'ing a'holes!!!
I am sorry that you had to be talked to that way by an obvious uneducated dick head!!

 

[Unclebill]

I agree that your impulse was probably not the best response. People like this seldom get it especially if you respond in the same manner as they. This likely merely justifies in his mind that you are an asshole and incompetent author.

Perhaps if you were to respond at all, you could have made the subtle suggestion that with his magnificent articulation skills, perhaps he should sign up as a volunteer editor. I doubt he would have appreciated the irony, but the subtlety might have helped your mood.

Don't let people like this bother you significantly. Some people seek to bolster their own image by denigrating the achievements or skills of others. And you just may have found one here.

Illegitimi non carborundum!

 

[nasty]

i agree wholeheartedly

I impulsively sent a response to that ass that responded rudely to me, and felt just as bad as them afterward. now whenever I get feedback that says something like, "Never write another story" I just laugh, then clcick "delete."
