I can't fucking stand fic reviewers who describe how much the canonical work the fic is derived from sucks before praising the fic as being ~so much better~ than the canon.

A simple "your fic is so good I like it even though I don't even like this show" is fine, but what on earth would possess someone to write a paragraph dissing a fictional work the person they're supposedly complimenting is probably a huge fan of? It's so insulting to the fic writer's intent (unless the writer explicitly said they dislike the work they're writing fic for -- which is rare), it's all about the reviewer needing to spout their opinions everywhere, even when it's not wanted, and not at all genuinely complimenting the fic writer.

Secret because: it's considered rude to argue with someone who compliments your fic, even if their compliment is insulting and contrary to your intent.
