(Anonymous) 2015-02-06 01:31 am (UTC)(link)a) Read the fic (because we had someone a while ago who just copied the tone of other reviews on fics and posted them without even bothering to read the fic itself) and
b) Enjoyed the fic.
In many years of writing both fanfic and original fic, I've never once met a single writer who would want insincere or mocking praise. If you're going to praise us, then you praise what you've liked and you do it for the right reasons. If you haven't enjoyed it, then offer concrit if the writer's open to that, but fake praise? Please don't.
And not knowing whether or not someone does this to your reviews only devaules all the other feedback you get, because it's impossible to differentiate the insincere and mocking praise from actual praise. The fact that writers have to second guess their good feedback is a pretty shitty position to put them in.
