Fan Fiction

What is it with people that frequent fanfic sites and just have to compliment the skills of EVERY SINGLE damn person that posts a story that wants to masquerade as decent fiction? Good God, fanfiction.net has some of the WORST fics I have ever read and no one ever says anything even slightly critical. They just praise! Excessively! What in the hell? That just makes people who write something good seem less talented. It puts them on the same level as crap. Thanks, guys. Geez, get a set and tell people the truth. Be polite about it, sure, but say something honest.
