Speaking as someone who replies to every review I get, here's how I feel about that: Enlightened randos who talk through their asses online have no say in what you choose to do, or where you choose to focus your energy. I believe social anxiety is a perfectly valid reason not to reply. Hell, simply not wanting to reply is valid. Who cares? Like, the last thing anyone needs from a fun hobby is unnecessary stress and anxiety. Hell, IRL I've let non-work related text messages and emails collect cyber dust all the time because I didn't want to deal with them. I hate having to reply to such things, and won't if it's not important. I hate feeling like someone's entitled to my attention at a moment's notice. The sound of a phone ringing pisses me off every time without fail. Fanfiction's one of the precious few spaces where I feel OK being open and saying whatever's on my mind, but I've spent more than half my life online churning out fic at this point, and worked damn hard to be as OK as I am now.

tl;dr There's no law stating whether or not you have to reply to reviews, and there's no real etiquette either. Anyone who suggests there is talking through their ass. You can do whatever feels right and if anyone doesn't like it, that's their problem. The best thing about fandom is that there are no rules.
