Do you mean to say that we should comment on the bad
parts or that we shouldn't.  Sarcasm bounces off
of me most of the time.

[the above is a serious question]

Let's try this, lets NOT point out the bad parts to the authors.  Post only the good points, DON'T post the stuff you feel needs to be worked on.  This way, that author gets a big ego boost.  So, he'll write more stories and try to make them better than his previous.  This is sorta like correcting your own mistake.  If you point out the bad thing about the fic, he'll get discouraged and maybe stop writing.
