Anons opinions don't count even when I agree with them
This started out as a simple rant in Fanficrants about fangirls reviewing the poster's fic in their "OMG TEH MANE CHARA RULZ!!11!" way. All is hunky-dory until an anonymous chimes in with a reasonable opinion.

"and yet some writers would give their left arm for any kind of review at all, just as long as someone was reading them.

sad. you're bitching that you were getting responses to your fic. they may not be this contructive criticism you desire, but they at least responded. some authors, even on ff.net, don't get that much."


Not very wanky, huh? Well it does start here when commentors couldn't resist poking the assumed troll (just because it's an anon and rather snarky). "Your point would have more merit if it weren't anonymous and unsigned. Hard to get feedback hiding behind that computer, eh?"
Now what kind of law did that quote invoke if there is one for it?

Anon responds by calling them hypocrites, twice. All because the 'troll-pokers' accused the anon of the very thing it disagreed with. The twisted logic confusesamuses me.

So far, it ends with the most ironic response from the supposed troll poking side. "Yes, but I'm not going to take someone's words seriously if they're not willing to stand up for them. If you don't believe what you're saying, why should I?

As I said, it's small. So, what's the verdict?
Edited post to clarify the funny.
