@Attru67 i agree. and people need to realize there's a difference between criticizing a person's writing style, and their actual writing mechanics.

Meaning, "The ship gleamed in the sunlight like a polished pearl. Amber painted on the hull, edged in gold. White it was, long it has always been."

Now some people look at that sentence, and cringe at the awkward sentence construction but this could be their writing style lol. You shouldn't criticize a writer's style, just say you don't like it.

This is criticizing writing mechanics with the same sentence.

The shipe gleam in sunlight lyke a polished peerl. Amber painted on the hole, edjed in gold."

The mechanics here are: Bad grammar. Bad spelling. That's available for criticism.

Sorry if I elaborated. lol just bored and wanted to give my two cents.

Which is fine, but if you're going to post on a site like this, or anywhere for that matter then you have to be prepared to be criticized. Its just the way it is. People are going to have and opinion and express it whether you want to hear it or not. Not you personally, lol. Just in general :) @Attru67 Very nicely put! Lol, so eloquent compared to my spiel. @perfectrain

@perfectrain So I was meaning to give a very well thought and clarified response to your post so here goes.

Criticism on grammar is allowed I agree, spelling is also included, and first impression should also be included. I found a lot of stories that I may have a sour first impression of that have blown me away later. That's the point of a first impression to let the author know the effect it had you.

But there is a way to be blunt and be hurtful. I personally I am blunt I won't sugar coat it if I don't like it, but I will at least try and find some good parts if I can. There are times where I have found a big pile of dung and tried to make a snowman out of it only to realize it still stunk. Thus is why I avoid trading because my bluntness gets me into trouble.

But personally like I said there is a point to being blunt and being hurtful. Some times the blunt truth can be seen as hurtful, but I view it as inspirational. Heck I've gotten my share of blunt remarks and you know what I realized after internal or external debate I need to change. And thus the review helped me to grow. For better or worse that is the point of most feedback.

But then again there are those who are always in a foul mood and decide to spread said grumpiness with others. For those I say thank you for your remarks and keep it moving. That's all we can do basically.

The good feels great and boosts our egos, but we need a mix or else we won't grow. I know there are people I'll never impress, but if I grow then maybe I can try again another day. Well other than that thanks for allowing me to elaborate and revive the thread that fly friend @Ari3ll3Erica crafted :)

@perfectrain When people ask me for advise I'm like o.o I'm a straight out rookie in writing. I just do it for fun and learn on the way so..... I never give my two cents to 'crtiquing' lol. So that's why I tell people if you know your shit then sure help out other then that piss off.

@clowen Yo dude. There are some straight out people on this site (mostly girls) that are like snakes. They don't even read the story just hunt for mistakes so they can feast on it. I swear... That's when my profanity comes out, THE FUL FLEDGE VERSION! lol...

"This is my confessions!"

@clowen You're making me die here. I just can't imagine you talking like that. Eventhough I know you have a southern accent. I can't stop reading what you have to say in an english accent..
