Okay, then I need to apologize and I feel sorry for your friend!
I know, that I have a responsibility towards the artist, and that hate Mails can have huge impacts on them. I've already Seen it myself.
But on the other Hand, this isn't just the commenters flaw Most of the time!
I've either Seen other examples where it was really Bad with Ranting and so on, but then the Artist said something about how he feels and what he thinks of all the critique!
And the comments really got better!
Furthermore, when he Wrote things like "I'm Not really pleased with how this looks like" in the description After that, the People in the comments Reassured him that it'd Look great!
So the Artist also has a responsibility towards the commenters, to make sure they know how to react, via Journals, etc. since otherwise we can't Know exactly how the Artist feels about certain things!
I don't want to say it was your Friends fault that she had to give up, but did she Tell them about it, before she stopped?
If they only failed in helping her, with a good intention, a dialogue might have been a soloution!
(I like this discussion very much because each of us has a view from one of the two sides!
)
But, furthermore, you've taken and altered my point!
I didn't ever say you should only write what's bad if you have an issue! I suggested you should say: "Everything is good/works, besides..."
This is a different case, as the Artist can Tell what's good by taking the whole page and removing the mentioned parts.
To take your example:
I think of parents that take the Kids certificate and Tell him: "Your Grades are all good so far, here you have 2$, but you'll have to work harder at maths or I'll withdraw your computer!"
See my Point?
And about the where, when and who?
If you scroll up again to my Original comment, you'll See that I've done exactly that! I've Said that Bearfangs paw movement doesn't fit because it should have already completed for the wounds to fit.
(I only didn't requote the whole commentin the Last one, 'cause I was lazy ^^)
