I can agree with most of this - I really miss having writing workshops at school and even finding a beta reader is becoming increasingly difficult - but I kind of side-eye when people think they should be able to have their concrit positively accepted by anybody whether the author was asking for it or not. It isn't just a matter of people only wanting praise, though honestly if fandom is just your fun place and you're not really here to be super serious about your writing, there's nothing wrong with that. There's also just the fact that fanfic is something people do in their often pretty limited free time and sometimes there's only so much effort they're willing to put into revision when it's something they're doing just for fun.

I think if the author specifically says they don't want concrit, people shouldn't leave concrit... but if the author doesn't specify if they want concrit or not, they shouldn't be rude when they get it. The reviewer just thought they were helping.

It doesn't deserve rudeness, no, but I'm not sure it automatically deserves thanks either. And I know that makes me sound like a jerk, but there's an amount of condescension in offering a whole slew of specific suggestions where it isn't asked for in real life and that carries over to fandom for me. It really depends on the environment, though. FF.net kind of automatically encourages it by having reviews instead of comments, for example.
