I also find a little self-depreciation goes a long way in reducing the sting. I am quite happy to let people know that I myself have a long ways to go, and that my opinions may not be the most learned.
Same here.

But that "women are socialised" routine goes a long way towards alienating me! NOT, let me say because he's complain about women in particular-- but to use a generalisation about someone else as an excuse for his own personal failure to communicate.
I do wonder why he asked you?
Now that I think about, it, the return would be to post those same comments in his public feedback!

I wonder too. Probably just picked my name out of a hat, who knows.

It's not as if I've written -

"Calling Seymour Butts!"

or

"The Bakdoor Gay Bandit Getz His Just Dezzerts"

Ironically - I just posted a story in anal. Not terribly well received, but I did get one-bombed :nana: (I've arrived, finally!) and FPP is so very difficult to write well, as I have discovered. *sigh*

I think I just might ask Jenny for a proper reaming after all - but coudja please use a little lube?

This clown was just looking to have is juvenile ego stroked. And so you really have to ask why he didn't ask me?

I know I'm a little rough, but I also try to be fair. That mean those looking for an ego-stroke avoid me like the plague. :rolleyes:

I actually like Stella's suggestion of pasting it on his feedback - but he could delete it just as easily.

So, let him. You've done your part as a concerned citizen ;)


(psst-- I have apricot-flavoured lube-- for special occasions ...)

You know - I don't think I will go back to the GB - just as much flirting and fun over here, my attention-whoring is quite well-fed, and well - you guys are al just plain sexier - it's those huge sexual organs you know..

mmmm - huge lumpy slimy blobs of grey goodyiage!

Mmm... Another successful seduction... :cathappy:
 
I rarely critique anothers writing as they end up sending me hate mail for days...

But I will comment on a story I liked - even if the typoease drove me a bit bats...

Since I have been posting here a few have taken the time to read and comment and ADVISE on how I write...

I'd like to think that I have improved greatly since the first story I posted.
One of the biggest improvements, I'd like to think has been on including dialogue LOLOL
Now my characters can't seem to shut up!

Jenny, Nasha, Marsh are a few that took me on :) hehehe . I may not have agreed with everything that was pointed out but I learned none the less...

So dont take it too badly that the story writer seemed to be offended and toasted you for your comments... You were generous to begin with and that can't be taken away.

I've never seen you say anything that wasn't right on the money. And I don't think you're a bitch - blunt, but not bitchy. I tend to critique the same way, but I rarely critique anything here. I come here to play, and editing is my work.
