If you are going to criticize someone's fic, do it personally, don't post
it to the list! Unless it is USEFUL criticism and not just "Not much of
anything to give me the urge to read on."
I personally agree with this. I think Suds-Kun's doing pretty good
with his reviews, because it is not as 'personal', shall we say.
I appreciate the comment. But I must state that my first few attempts at
reviewing were, unintentionaly, offensive. Because of this, I received a
request from an author to not review their fics. I am honoring this
request and have modified my reviews to try and prevent future instances
of this.
I am not proud of my insulting actions, but I am trying to learn from
them.
Again, thanks for the comment. It tells me that I'm improving. ^_^
Shameless plug #1: My future reviews will be including the archive
number of the post (and retrieval instructions). For example, Chasing
the Wind Part 10 is archive #24992. This way, the author won't be
inundated with "send me a copy" requests. I just have to finish testing
the commands. :)
Shameless plug #2: For you beta fic collectors, I have THCOL Chp 2 Part
5 posted on my web page. It's ruff and, for now, includes an outline for
the unfinished part of the fic.
