Literotica's All-time Best "Worst Public Feedback" List

[TxRad]

What? You don't think he'd find our intellectual discussions on the subjects of rape, incest, porn and fucking to be within the parameters of upright Christian behavior?

Ya left out shoes.

Now that would totally confuse him.

 

[sr71plt]

If you check out my signature, it shows two of my novels, both once published here, that are now for sale. I have two more novel length and one short story that will be published next year for e novel and the two on my signature are going to print next year. So to answer your question, yes, you can sell right from your storypage. As a matter of fact, I've had publishers send me emails asking for some of my work right from my storypage. I always pull my work though, as soon as I'm sent the contract.

Thanks. I knew you could do that with the short stories (I've sold more than 170 of the stories I have posted here--like you to publishers who contacted me about them), but I didn't know if that held for the novels as well. I've yet to be asked to pull any stories I've sold (and resold), though--although I was asked to write exclusives that I wouldn't post anywhere else (and have done so).

Now that would totally confuse him.

Shoes pose their own moral dilema:
How many shoes are enough?
Are those go-to-hell red pumps worth my last hundred dollars?
Am I allowed to derive pleasure from owning and wearing those shoes?
Dare I buy the peach strappies?

Such a sinful discussion.

 

[SweetWitch]

Sounds like you issued Challenge #2 ('Bash my story using alliteration, circumlocation and hyperbaton!') to the trolls, except added 'misspelled', maybe?

Several people have gotten emails from this particular anon. He/She is a constant source of amusement, which I assume is the reason for sending them.

What's sinful is the fact that none of those come a size 14 EE.

Nope. 7 1/2 is the size. Then there are the boots. Cute little ankle boots, and tall-heeled knee boots. Brown, black, beige, suede, leather, all the styles I can afford and then some. I think I may have a substance abuse problem.

Chocolate and expensive footwear will be the death of me yet.

[size=+2]TODAYS WORST COMMENT[/SIZE]​

Three today, all on the same story. And, although maybe the first commenter is right, I do like the category. I’ve had lots of experiences with wives, both mine and others. Too much frankly. Give me a twenty year old coed or barmaid any day. They may cheat on you but who cares? You’re going to cheat on her!

Why Do You Demean / Disrespect Men & Yourself?
11/07/06 By: Anonymous in USA
With your talent it must mean that you have little regard for men and little self respect to write for just the few sick cucksters who need - who require pathetic male humiliation.

Your bio makes boastful statements of the counts for your incest stories which are so absurd so as not to offend most. The counts and scores on these self cuckolding male humiliation stories are bringing your count down little sick one

Here you are making a concerted effort to piss off any semi-normal person and especially a non-cuck man by your total pointed disrespect for any humane reality.

Why is that? Are you quite jaded and numb that only the weird fetishes excite you.

Its a waste of some talent for so few cucksters little sick one. Wise up and begin to self respect yourself - if you can for those who could appreciate you if you can change

Very poor effort!

Wow, one of your worst stories ever submitted. Go back to writing your own stories-this was a pile of shit.

Ooh! someone doesn't like my story

Just thought I'd share this one -

Sentimental Trash
09/23/07 By: Anonymous
Soap opera with sex. Give the reader a character to uncritically sympathise with. Make her depressed and fearful after bad experience. Have her coaxed by caring relative into 'liberating' experience. Introduce her to a goodie. Have the baddie come back. Crisis. Goodie vanquishes baddie. Goodie then saves her by making love with her. And they all lived happily ever after. Uneven narrative voice. Bad dialogue; no one speaks like that: no snap, no wit, just flat and mostly expositional, and does nothing to delineate and individualise characters. Nude beach largely incidental. They might just as well have gone to the mall. Cheesy and sentimental happy ending.
Writing by numbers. Sentimentality is unearned emotion- James Joyce.

Another one on my 'Nude Day' winning story! A fellow Brit, too, judging by the '-ise' endings on words. Ah, well . . .

Alex

PS: And the vote average went down, too.

Alex -

You might always tweak him with a response:

"A sentimentalist is a person who wants all of the joys of a great emotion without paying for it." -- Oscar Wilde, some decades before Joyce. Shame to be quoting a plagiarist.

Tempting, but I'll give it a miss. Actually, as long as there aren't too many of 'em, feedback like this keeps my feet on the ground, and allows me still to get my head through narrow doorways . . .

The very next PC was a defence of my story by someone who likes it. Name given, too, so it wasn't me!

[size=+2]TODAYS WORST COMMENT[/SIZE]​

This comment is for a story that came out back in 2005; it was an official entry in the 2005 Holiday Contest. I got the e-mail yesterday from out of the blue. The story has averaged sales of only about 1500 units per month over the last year and has only got two posted comments this year. By and large most people liked the story.

I led off the story with the following comment (I just checked): It is also a story that touches on the war in Iraq and as the Holiday Season fast approaches I hope all of us, whether in the U.S, Britain, Australia or Canada or wherever, take a few minutes to think of, and pray for, the boys and girls, the men and women, who are serving their countries selflessly and under great danger in foreign lands.

It would be difficult to explain how deeply I am disappointed now that I leave your stories forever. I simply don’t understand how any author could alienate half of his potential audience by defending any political ideology. Most especially, I don’t understand how a man of your talent could be an uninformed ideologue that permitted hate groups to formulate his political opinions.

Your statements about being lied to about WMD’s in Iraq and how your government has deluded and misled the country are ludicrously wrong. Your rote descriptions from Moveon.org, the leftistmedia, and presumably your concept of National Security being a function of the inherent good will of the Muslim world is childish.

Are you sure you don’t know about the 400 bombs, some still filled with Saran gas, that were found in Iraq? Do you not think that any WMD’s that Iraq had were not transported to Iran and Syria as they were during Desert Storm, and do you not think additional weapons could be found buried like the jet fighters we found buried in the desert a few years ago?” Do you really have to be so indifferent that 3000 of your brother citizens can be slaughtered (more than at Pearl Harbor) without setting a National unshakeable goal to fix the problem?

Will we have to have three American cities vaporized before you get excited? Where do you come off accusing our president of self interest and indifference to our peoples’ pain just because your guy lost Florida fair and square in the last election (and I’m an Independent)?

Your ire should be directed at Islam who hasn’t created Fatwas to eliminate the dangerous concepts of Mohammed concerning Jihad, or against the Imams preaching Jihad all over the Middle East. Blaming George for our evils may be popular among the power hungry left, but it is just lunatic. The problem is Islam’s not America’a. The resolution should be to treat any country that doesn’t control its populace (or at least the 15 to 30% that are fanatic) as an enemy of the West and start treating their institutions as we did Germany in WW II until the 75% stop the 25% and until the problem is gone.

But hey buddy, don’t leave, please! I like George…he got my vote, hanging chad and all. Hell, I’d kick the ass of that Iranian who’s pissing on Ground Zero from one end of Manhattan to the other if I had a chance. Shit, you just wait til my next story if you think I’m soft on ....

I suppose I should also add that the first comment the story ever received was the following:

Jingoistic crap
11/23/05 by Anonymous
The premise sucked, the sex sucked, and none of it in a good way.

But I have to add that I got comments from two kittens (kittyns?) who both complimented me on the story (no girls, I’m not going to quote your injudicious words here). Oh how times change!

 

[sr71plt]

I do wish that I'd get a comment or two longer than the story being lambasted.

 

[MzDeviancy]

I like George…he got my vote,

I could accept the multiple personalities and enormous ego, but this...this is just too much.

I bought the silver strappy sandals with fake diamonds, for hols. Then didn't wear them cos I was scared of the salt water ruining them. Perhaps next year.

Why don't guys have these problems?

[size=+2]TODAYS WORST COMMENT[/SIZE]​

Here are two comments, more interesting than bad. The first, on one of Lits most popular all-time stories, clearly comes from an experienced ‘toker’.

The second, on a wonderful story I wrote quite a while ago, highlights my most glaring geographical mistake in my writing career. And every month or so I get a similar e-mail pointing out my mistake. Although often tempted to edit and correct this mistake I never do. It’s good for me to be reminded of my imperfections once in a while. And the craziest thing about the error is that I lived in Cleveland at one point in my life!

And I simply want to add that these comments, like all comments I receive on my stories, whether complimentary or not, are greatly appreciated. I never tire of hearing the opinions, ideas, suggestions, complaints, corrections, etc., etc., that everyday readers take the time to send me! Thank you.

A Wonderful story; extremely well developed with no wooden characters. You have a wonderful ear for sensing what the dialogue needs.
I would only add one note, a joint is not a roach after one puff. That later is a very minor note. A 5

I must have missed this. I thought MzD was making a joke about voting for Bush. And a good joke too, I thought. Or does Laurel have some way of turning George Bush off and all we ever had to do was PM her and put George on ignore???

another comment...

[size=+2]TODAYS WORST COMMENT[/SIZE]​

I saw the following comment today on the feedback portal. I looked for the offending comments that provoked it and couldn’t find them (obviously removed by the author as he promised to do in his comment).

Curious I read the story. I had already read some of Mr. Brett’s stories in the past and also know he has some fairly highly rated ones (on the Top 500 category lists). The story, though perhaps not great, was quite good. The author did a very workmanlike job; in fact it could be rated ‘very good’ when compared to others on the site. Under the inflated scoring system that pervades Literotica it certainly deserves a red [size=+2]H[/size].

Still, I don’t like the tone of his comment. I’ll score the comment a ‘one’. If an author absolutely hates a comment I have no problem with he or she deleting it. But ranting at our audience isn’t the answer Brett. It’s difficult enough getting any feedback from the casual reader without scaring them away. My advice is to simply delete those you don’t like and thank the people who send you ones that you appreciate.

You do realize I hope, that the average Literotica submission now receives an average of only 1.37 comments! (And that figure includes Loving Wives category stories as well as the comments Miss Kitten and Miss Sarahhh receive on their stories – Christ, without them the average would be well under ‘1’ comment per story.

In my opinion calling readers idiots, suggesting they don’t belong here, not allowing attacks, etc. only encourages the true ‘problem’ commentators while discouraging everybody else. So cool the rhetoric Brett – the fact you have so many red [size=+2]H’s[/size] is proof that the majority of your feedback is excellent!

And you know, the strange thing I’ve found is that even the ugliest and most personal of attacks (and I’ve had lots) often carry some message to the author about his work.

From the Author
09/26/07 by BrettJ in Canada
I read 3 user comments that were far BEYOND vile - they accomplish nothing. Once again, it doesn't help me to attack me on a personal level – people who do that are quite frankly, IDIOTS, and below contempt. You don't belong on LIT - I don't have time to tell you where you belong. People say I delete negative comments - that is only semi-true. What I delete are the negative comments that don't help me as a writer / creator. Sorry to say, I have enough sense of self to know I am a good writer - I've got over 80 Red H's and I've had 60 stories published.

I know this is a good story, I read it over and was quite pleased with it - as were the first grouping of readers. Yet, I know I have flaws and make errors - a reader caught one earlier today [ I changed the name of the title character from Thomas to Jim and missed one spot ]. That helps me, because I know to be more careful. I find the negative comments I get are "flaming" – I have my beliefs that attacks on an author shouldn't be allowed, period. I get 'em, they're going in the Trash heap.

As a person commenting on another author's work, put yourself in my shoes. How would you feel? NONE of those people know me personally. Comment on the work and let me know what you liked / didn't like. Do likewise, I am going to delete you. Period. My sincere thanks to those who've continued to encourage me. You're the people I write for, and believe me, I will continue to do so.

2 today...

[size=+2]TODAYS WORST COMMENT[/SIZE]​

I came across the following two comments that were posted on two different stories today. Some how I had missed them before. The first one is interesting only because it gave me pause to guess which AHer had posted it. It has the vindictiveness you might expect from a woman but there is a certain male lack of subtlety to it. Care to make a guess?

The second is much more interesting – and helpful. And while pot may have had some part in the writing of the story surely there are some old guys who can still come 5 or 6 times in a night. Aren’t there? And he’s quite right about the “18 to 36 year old” line. When I originally wrote the scene I had actually written 13 to 20 years old. In editing I changed it just so I’d have no trouble with the censors. As I write chapter 2 I will keep this commenter’s points in mind!


Typical Scouries Story

Hey Scouries, you writing your own comments again, the previous two look like they were written by the same person, you!
You really are a pathetic little man. Oh, your story, I gave it a 2. That's about all it was worth.

Sorry, Charlie.....
06/29/07 By: deleted in southern USA

a near 60 year old guy cums 5 times with Sam in less than 24 hrs? Even with Viagra, you're still smoking dope if you believe that. While your writing is very good, another error is the guy's mental state. At 60, his thoughts and actions are described in the same way as when he was 18. Rough, tough, and crude have to mellow at least a little over the years. He is so preoccupied with sex (young sex) that in today's world, he would be on several states' sex offender list.

As a follow-on thought, instead of being politically correct with all participants being 18 or over, tell the truth about how it was in-country. You stated, "The girl coulda been anywhere from eighteen to thirty-six. I didn't have a clue." The truth would have been she could have been anywhere from fifteen to twenty-five. I will agree that it was usually impossible to tell in the oriental culture. In the coming chapters/stories, please don't screw every woman that shows up. His reunion with Han and Kim and the kids should not end up in an orgy; give him a little dignity for once.

In a litotes sort of way, can I say that the majority of your stories are not as bad as all that. (Still give em 5-bombs).
