User blog comment:AGSonic Official/A not for beginner writers/@comment-5306249-20200119031732

It's an unfortunate byproduct, I'd like to point out, that many of the users who post here daily on the new are either totally inexperienced with any sort of fiction or too young to fully understand the lengths this wiki goes to to both foster good writing and preserve a decent image for the site. So it comes across as being super unfair and bogus. Not to mention writing is wayyy harder to educate oneself on and as a result criticism can seem even tougher than art criticism for example. ESPECIALLY horror writing criticism.

I mean this sincerely when I say you don't have to stay. BUT! I highly recommend coming back if you do leave, and see how much you've improved in the time elapsed. You might think the standards are very strict, but in reality this is the sort of quality writing you need before you even reach college, and this stuff can really affect your writing for the better.
