So sue me. I got tired of constantly seeing "Literotica's All-time 'Most Votes Received' List," scouries's attempt to create a new list where he can be in first place (although, honestly, how you can describe someone as one of "Literotica's Greatest Authors" based on a story that probably isn't even in the top thousand highest-scoring in its category (Incest, surprise, surprise) is beyond me). Anyway, it seems to me we need a category where everyone can compete. And I recall that Diana Rigg (whom we were worshipping over in the Author's Hangout last week) once published a book of really bad reviews.
So I thought, how about really bad public feedback. After all, the Story Feedback Forum is for "Literotica Stories that you love or hate!" And since there are plenty of negative opinions floating around out there, why should I reinvent the wheel? So I invite everyone to submit a nominee for "Worst Public Feedback," on your story, or that of someone you love. Or of someone else. At the end we'll decide which single piece of bad public feedback was the best, and give the recipient some sort of cheap, meaningless award.
The rules are simple: it has to be public, either a public comment or posted in the forum. And there you are.
I'll start off. My worst comment is from Show Moms, Ch. 02 (which currently is barely holding on to its red "H" with a 4.59):
My worst forum comment, from scouries himself, on How to Write Romance (4.72):
Not bad, huh? Anybody else?

You had a great story line with fantastic potential and you let it trickle right through your fingers. Sure wish it could be rewritten by Scorpio44, chiefX39, Rob in AZ, metacarpal or walterio. I guess the hard stuff just isn't in you and it's a bit of a shame since what you have done shows a helluva lot of talent. (score of 00)

My worst forum comment, from scouries himself, on How to Write Romance (4.72):
You have to wonder what the ‘Average Joe’ reader opening this story randomly, thinking a contest story probably should be pretty good, would make of the whole thing. My guess is he’d be clicked out and long gone by the end of the second paragraph.
Which is of course the author’s greatest failing here. He doesn’t care about them. In fact he doesn’t want them to get to the end and vote. You can feel the utter disdain he shows for not only Literotica’s readers but also other authors he clearly feels superior to. He may speak for his “fellow [AH] Romance writers” but certainly not for the vast majority of us.
Surely sir, if you are going to write a story to be entered in a major Literotica competition its sole purpose shouldn’t be to mock the people that you rely on so much for to feed your ego. For yes, even though, like so many of your AH friends, you dismiss the majority of readers as simpletons and perverts, you still crave the rush that comes from having your stories ‘viewed’.
Quite frankly I hope you win the contest. Then this (expletive deleted) story will have to stay on the site forever, a testament to one authors arrogance and pettiness.
