Ok, I was reading the reviews for one of my fav fics. The author who writes it has done an amazing job. I was SHOCKED to find that it actually got a bad review! The funny thing is, the reviewer (who has also given me bad reviews before, but it's not that big a deal to me) is soooo... critical... yet the one story this person has written is one of the most hideously put together fics I have ever written! It's soooo funny to get a bad review from someone, have them tell you what an awful, boring writer you are, and then find out that the reviewer is actually an awful writer! I just laughed soooo hard. I mean, hypocrisy much?
Don't get me wrong, I like conservative criticism. It helps. Really. But when someone out & out bashes your story (if they hate it that much, then don't read it!) and then realize that person couldn't write a readable fic for anything... well... it kinda contradicts the weight their review holds, ya know?

I totally agree. Some people give really mean reviews and then write really bad stories. I think i know who you are talking about!
