Bad Reviews

[jip]

H.Dean, sorry but your reply proofs the words "superior" and "arrogance".
It has nothing to do with not accepting critics.
Still wondering how much foreign languages you speak and or understand. Easy to talk when you only need 1. Live in Europe and you will see that driving 24 hours, you have hard at least 10 different languages if not more.

Which languages I speak makes no differences. I do not offer critisisms to tales that are not in my own native tongue. Further, if I did write in another language I would expect critisism to be based on that language and not my own. So, your question is moot and speaks of your own arrogance for knowing more than one language while assuming I know only one.

Finally, my reply does not "proofs the words "superior" and "arrogance". It only proves that I want the same honest critisism that I offer. Nothing more and nothing less. It also proves that I don't want false praise.

It seems that you would prefer such false praise and to offer it to others. So be it. I'll not offer such. I will review honestly. It's too bad you see honesty as arrogance.

This would be my take on the language issue. Issues regarding Queen's English v. Colonial English are overblown, there aren't that many words that are spelled differently, and those that are, are recognizable and don't change the meaning of the sentences.

I'm happen to be tired of reading things like...

"The stealy glint of his blew ayes and the pail color of his skin could be scene despite the dark moonless knight."

Lol, I agree with ozme52.

My take on the whole thing:

There will always be people who don't like your writing, just as there will always be people who do. Some of them don't convey their intentions in a warm, earthly matter - deal with it. By posting your stories on this site, you've agreed to accept criticisms from others who read your work. If you can't do that, don't post your stories. You can't expect to get good reviews from everyone.

Sure, maybe the critics are a bit too harsh in their arguments. I'm not saying they aren't. But it's what they think. Learn what you will from it and move on. It's that simple.

Kind of sums up this whole thread beautifully. Nice one Ayla.
