Why is it that the only people who leave shitty comments on stories are Anonymous?

 

[Goldie Munro]

Well they don't want you coming back with explanations or retorts - the cowards!

 

[gauchecritic]

Because that way they don't have to try and spell their name.

Sunnie:
Don't worry. if you keep submitting long enough you will eventually begin to get nasty comments with names (fake?) on them.

It is not so much the nasty comments I dislike as the almost totally useless contents of the nasty comment. If someone points out a supposed flaw in my writing, I can at least review what is being addressed. However, "Everything you write is a piece of shit" is not very useful. (Normally actually spelled: "Everthing your rite is a peice of shit." [sic])

I got a fuckin' anonymous feedback telling me I should be pumping gas since I blow so much gas in my latest story (whatever the fuck that means).

And two people saying that the 6th chapter of Teacher's Pet is like reading an 8th grader's note.

... so yeah, I'm a little pissed.

There's a difference between constriucive criticism, which I can take, and just plain flaming. Pisses me off.

Guess I'm a Lit writer for real now. heh.

I was actually rather amused to receive "sorry but I cant [sic] read this gibberish." I also was once told in a response to a feedback post that my feedback was a "frustrated schoolteacher" comment. So there you have me - frustrated gibberish-spouting schoolteacher. Oh yes, and a poof, as born witness by the feedback of "DEATH TO ALL POOFS." Aren't I the handful?

Maybe they choose to remain anonymous so that you won't retaliate and flame any story they might have written.

Dammit!(stomping foot) when am I going to get a "DEATH TO ALL POOFS" feedback? Is my writing not gay enough?

Yes, you're a handful, all hooves and mane, baby.

Mmmm. Hands are quite a pleasure.

And you *did* ask ... that's all I ask you to remember
