(Anonymous) 2012-06-10 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)Don't get me wrong! The fact that there were people reading my stories and liking them enough to add them to their favorites or story alerts was cool, and I appreciated every single fave/alert, but actual reviews? And reviews that went beyond a "I loved it, please write more!"? Those were real gems.
I never (and definitely won't start if I start writing fic again) complained about them, though. That's just bad form and a guarantee to lose readers.
Not to mention that I've been on the other side. Sometimes you just don't know what to say in response to a good story but still liked it. It happens.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-11 01:05 am (UTC)(link)This is pretty much what I think. Favorites are nice, but I still have a preference for reviews. Although , even if it is hard to say something nice on occasion, I try to say something, even if it's just "I liked that line".
But, complaining about it on your profile or your stories? Oh no no no, that's where I think it would be wrong. That is why I prefer to let out steam when I need to in places like this and not with your audience (a concept a lot of people can't seem to grasp, because apparently, you're not suppose to be able to complain once in a while, ever)

(Anonymous) 2012-06-11 01:15 am (UTC)(link)That's also why you should be careful about where you vent. You never know if even the people in your f-list might decide to let something juicy slip... Anonymous communities or very, very trusted or not in fandom real life friends is the way to go. c:
