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.

The only time to be that nice is when someone posts their first fic or so. 
When I put mine up I was generally crushed because I took the responses 
personally. (they were all bad;). Now I know how things work and I'm back into 
the writing business. When someone does their 2nd or third fics, start 
offering more CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Ignoring bad stuff isn't the way to go 
but don't go as far as to trash the author.
