Hate feedback that is wrong!

Feedback ‘advice’

Get really hacked off when feedback goes into real literary content like th use of a comma over a full stop (period in USA)
Jesus, really? Enjoy the story, it’s not like your Hemingway, Dickens or Shakespeare yourself. Rant over (kisses!)

While I agree that those comments are frustrating, I do find that annoying as well if it happens very often in a story. Of course minor mistakes or typos happen, but if the writer is throwing around commas, periods and semicolons at seemingly random it does start to annoy me. The grammar nazi comments are annoying, but sometimes they are valid if it really harms the enjoyment of the reader.
 
Problematic: I wrote a series that got all red-H's, even the chapters with (to me) blatant errors, and nobody complained. Blatant, as in mixing-up names. So, complaints. Are unearned gripes worse than the absence of valid bitches?

Guess it depends on how popular your stories are. But you bring a good point, I guess some feedback is better than apathy!
