Really odd feedback...

[shaddyr]

I am at somewhat of a loss. Up until this point, my fanfic has generally received what I consider good feedback or comments on stories. However, my the crossover story has now earned two comments that left me in the position of not being sure how to react.

The first one: so, if a person leaves a comment stating they didn't like my characterization

Comments

People leave the most ridiculous comments. I usually ignore the stupid parts and say thanks for the compliment parts (assuming they left both in a single comment) to try to train them. Bc they have no right to tell me how to write. Not to be harsh, but I can't go around worrying about other people's desires to see what's in my stories; I'd lose my muse in a heartbeat.

There, I said it out loud. :D Sorry you had to deal with that, lambchop.

Yeah, no, that's not harsh at all. Really, if people don't like a fic, why don't they stop reading? I am forever amazed at feedback I read where people and going on about whatever they thought was so terrible and I find myself wondering - don't they know how to close a tab? Use the back button? There are plenty of stories I just walk away from because I don't like something. Why don't they do the same?

*hugs*

Thanks hon!
