Solaris Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 One of my stories was recently reviewed and this was the review: cuz that wasn't boring *coughcough* I am not sure wether or not to take it as a snub of the story or what? I have received flames for my stories but not any of the stories that I did in this one catagory and I'm not sure what to think about this review. Is this a snub or a light hearted flame? Thanks, Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinigamiinochi Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 that's a snub. A flame is when someone is bashing you instead of your story. Now, if they said that you were boring for writing the fic, that could be a flame. "This story is disgusting!" = snub "You are disgusting!" = flame.

GinnyM.Potter Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 i delete reviews like that. I didnt spend time writing for someone to come along and tell me how boring it may or may not be. I am however in need of a few reviews myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairyNiamh Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I like getting snubs like that... Esp on multi chapter fics... this way I can be polite to them and suggest that they try another area to read in. Just ignore them hun.

Solaris Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I'm going to delete the review and forget that they ever posted something like that. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinigamiinochi Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I've never deleted a review, even a flame. Partially, it's because I'm lazy, but mostly because of my OTHER reviewers. The last two times I was flamed or snubbed, my other wonderful reviewers rose up as one and started to yell at the flamer. Nothing like watching readers defend your work with such passion to make you feel all warm and gooey inside (see reviews for Solstice on this site or The Definition of Love on gundam-wing-universe.net for very good examples) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
