Totally agree, and thanks. *highfive* To be honest, I am new to the online community, and I'm surprised that people act that way. Yes, will become more flame-proof in the future (while noting the stuff which is actually helpful). Personally, adding sarcasm to a comment doesn't make the statement more impactful for me.

I guess you could PM the sender and ask he/she why their statements were so far out. Or you could reply to an opinion given.
But remember there are a lot of people who don't leave names with their comments. Let alone someone who's going to respond in the first place.
If I may say so, part of our "maturity" as authors is to deal with immature audience members.
That's really not the case all of the time. Remember, your videos probably reached different audience members than others.
Citizen Kane is surely NOT a retarded movie, but it definitely receives its share of retarded comments.
The same for AMVs.
A while back I got qucik comments and ops for my videos that told me how shitty my video quality was o.o I look back at them today and say...wow I must have a new set of eyes.....During betas (I've only had 3 so far) I have heard comments like...you need to take this out or you need to fix the interlacing..and even, that is a shitty idea and it won't go anywhere in the long run. I know I don't to hear it sometimes but...hey I asked and I am pretty sure it is for my benefit...I do sometimes disagree. Most of the comments in the long run I can agree with and I do see myself being much better then where I was 4 months ago (not everything is going to be sugar coated for you). o.Odazza1008 wrote: So unfortunately I mostly seem to receive constructive criticism in a rude way.

That's not even near flaming. It's constructive criticism but vague enough that it's little help to anyone.dazza1008 wrote:the quick comment I received...
1/5. quality was just as bad as the fucking video
Damn! I am so tempted to call that a flame
Actually I rarely have a point to my flames, at least in QCs. I learned long ago it's a waste of time giving constructive criticism to someone unless they specifically asked for it. Hell, most of my QCs are left because I have 10 unrated videos and I want to download more. So I rate and flame without having actually watched the video yet.Knowname wrote:Even half the stuff that Godix, Inthesto and whoever other master asshole out there that CAN do this even half of there stuff just comes out as a flame.

And since I hadn't gotten many I've come to the conclusion that if you don't make retarded videos you won't get retarded comments!
I understand what you're saying (which is any kind of comment can be beneficial) and I don't disregard comments simply because they are rude... but I think it makes for a nicer and more encouraging community if manners were used. As few f words as possible, please. I do separate the good from the bad, despite the fact that most of what they say is redundant, but that's no excuse for them to use bad language.Meteor Dragon wrote:A while back I got qucik comments and ops for my videos that told me how shitty my video quality was o.o I look back at them today and say...wow I must have a new set of eyes.....During betas (I've only had 3 so far) I have heard comments like...you need to take this out or you need to fix the interlacing..and even, that is a shitty idea and it won't go anywhere in the long run.

OK, so it's not a personal attack, you're right, technically not a flame, but it's still as rude as anything.godix wrote:That's not even near flaming. It's constructive criticism but vague enough that it's little help to anyone.dazza1008 wrote:the quick comment I received...

If you ask me, there's no point. There's no way to prove your identity there -- anyone else could just as easily leave a QC and sign it with your name.dazza1008 wrote:Quick comments are anonymous... I haven't received many comments with rudeness where people are brave enough to leave their name (or it just gets deleted by mods before I see it XD)
