maybe it's more to do with the method of criticism? alot of the fetishy people I know are really direct and blunt, and alot of them, being the brilliant bastards they are, also compress thought- so they'll say something sucks, maybe with a short reason as to why, but never really flesh it out, exploring why it sucks- so their comment instead of being of any use, is more seen as snarkiness, oe just a dumb loon. side note- I can't stand the "tell me the best" mentality. we're all different, you morons. my best could very well be your deepest fear. explore your own life.
methods depend. direct and blunt are sometimes necessary in order to save time and energy. i'd prefer it. but everyone working in this little niche are usually so damn fickle and sensitive, and everyone knows it.
the thing is, if someone says a piece is boring. what else needs to be explained? besides the fact that a particular image doesnt do a thing for you?
i suppose once i a while something will be worth commenting positively on. but say you post an image and you get a bunch of boring, boring boring comments. then that would be a basis for some improvement.
and yes. of course, a bit more detail would help in guiding direction. but it's still a lot better than a shit load of trite "that's nice" comments
each complaint will vary, of course. some people just dont like a damned thing that isn't their specific kink. one thing I found was that some folk feel they have to comment on (near) every post, so that the poster doesn't feel ignored or jilted- which is where alot of the insincere 'thats nice' things come from. the other side is posters who make noise when things dont get feedback. equally annoying and useless.
