Why bother?

[rflong]

I got a response to crit I did some time ago this morning and it has left me a bit flabbergasted. In it the person takes a suggestion I made (as part of a longer crit) and picks it apart completely to show me why it is wrong beyond wrong and they will not be using it.

Sorry! I thought a crit was a request for an opinion. I apologize for actually giving mine. (Actually, no, I don't.)

Some folks are like that. I think why post your stuff for critting if you think it's perfect already? Of course, some folks do post stuff just for affirmation that they're doing the right thing, but I think that if you know it works as is, then you should be sending it out and not posting it for crits.

reading the above, it sounds like I'm referring to you...by "you" I meant folks who post stuff for crits. *how come lj doesn't have anything for editing your comments...mutter, mutter*
