I always note if I was unable to finish a story, and my comments are always based on what I have read of it. I don't think it's unfair to say "I couldn't finish reading this story and here's why."
I would agree that it's poor taste if I were actually "leaving" my reviews on the fic. But I'm not. I'm writing them in my own journal and leaving only positive feedback on fics I liked.
But I really don't think we're going to come to an agreement on that. I was only commenting because I resent the idea that I must be writing reviews specifically to cause harm or wank. I don't know how you even found my journal, but I've now unjoined the smutmas comm so that if anyone reads the comm's flist, my posts won't show up on there. (Still possible to come across them via friendsfriends or just random journal hopping, but there's nothing I can do about that other than flock and I don't want to do that because it means I have to friend everyone back who friends me, which I don't like to do.)
