wiseheartThis one is focusing on my older Tolkienfic, systematically going through my stories and listing up the reasons why they dislike it and the - imaginary - mistakes I've supposedly made.
Today I was told that the Huorns aren't trees but the tree shephers. Methings someone mistakes them for the Ents and can't be bothered to check their facts before lecturing others.
Fortunately, this is another anonymouse; the name by which they sign their "helpful" reviews isn't registered on FF.Net, at least not the same form. I've long set my anonymous reviews on "moderated", specifically for such annoying know-it-alls, but it would be better if I could block them from leaving signed reviews, too.
I don't presume to be all-knowing and unable to make mistakes. But people who dedicate their lives to find mistakes (even where there aren't any) and can't be arsed to PM the author if they have doubts/questions that should be discussed, put me off like few other things.
