Re: Fanfic authors: Things you wish your readers would/wouldn't do

[philstar22]

See, I won't leave negative reviews unless it is to either leave concrit or to comment about something that offends me. I'm not going to comment just to tell an author that I personally didn't like their fic. That just seems rude.

And also, since leaving a review just to say "I like this" when I don't have specifics seems the equivalent to kudos (and feels the same to me when I get them as an author), I don't really get why there would be a difference. I'll leave a review if I have specific things I want to comment on or praise, but not to just say "this was good."

I'm certainly masochistic as well as able to not take a pointlessly spiteful comment to heart, but as far as I know I'm in a minority on that. At best, for the abrupt rude comments, as you call them, I can ask them why. Whether that goes anywhere is up to them. It could very well be my story was not for them, it didn't hit of their own fiction kinks, and that's cool too. Or perhaps they were affected by a turn of events, and knowing that is where I get my boost, knowing that folk felt something.

I do feel awkward about simple "like" comments though. Not that I always feel obligated to reply to them, especially since there's not much other than a brief "thank-you". But there's so little meat in it that my entitled ass wants, again, to know whyyyyyy.

I guess I can only speak from personal experience. The only 2 negative reviews I've gotten are from I think the same person who really hates that I write one pairing and thinks I should stick with the other pairing I like. And it is just rude and pointless and annoying. I didn't even bother to respond, just deleted. I didn't need that comment, I didn't want to know that particular thought of theirs. So I'd never do that to an author.

I leave simple like comments sometimes because I can't explain what it was I liked or it was everything. I like to give examples when I can but at times I can't remember or it sounds forced.
