Don't believe I said you were the only person who felt anything. You're just the one who rode into the fight.
Me, I'd enjoy getting more comments on stuff, sure! But the odds of getting any result I like from going, "Hey, you all oughtta tell me-I-mean-AUTHORS more about how cool my fics are"? Not high.
Not, in fact, any better than the odds that shouting at the OP is going to cause anything but getting their back up...as it did. Well done. Give yourself a hand. You have successfully scorned the ham-handedness and leapt bravely down the throat of someone who (gasp) misread the room. That's exactly what this meme needs more of, right, excoriating each other? Because it's not like we've got plenty of outsiders happy to do it for us.
I can't do a slow clap for you in text, so you'll just have to imagine it.
And, you know, maybe consider cooling your damn jets and rolling your eyes next time. Ringing silence gets the "that was dumb" message across just as well.
