If I ever do, there will be a giant adendum at the end that reads: "And if you were polite about your concrit and they still whine, it's NOT YOUR FAULT!
Giving concrit to someone young is rough at any time - particularly over the 'net because there's not that 'marks' modifier either. I mean - any student who wrote their paper the night before simply because it was due and so they'd have something to hand in knows and probably doesn't care that they've gotten a C over the person who may have written it that same night but had actually plotted their argument carefully and simply wasn't struck with inspiration until then. Someone who slapped together AkuRoku boypr0n for the reviews can't necessarily make that distinction. "But it's Axel/Roxas! And Sex!" And we've heard the "Nobody's MAKING YOU READ IT/JUDGING US!" argument 50 million times over.
Writing an etitquette guide like that should proove interesting, as I'd want it to be defensive of writers who get crappy reviews and understanding that "LOLZ DID YOU EVEN PLAY THE GAME HURRR?" is really fucking rude, but also supportive of concrit and just because someone dishes it out doesn't mean the reviewer is an asshole.
