I can understand your issue with people being rude, sometimes it happens. A lot of people try and defend their outright rude behavior by claiming that its "harsh" constructive criticism, but in reality, some people are just naturally abrasive. If someone is being abusive, you can always report them to an admin, as suggested below. I certainly hate to think that some bad apples this site are preventing someone from contributing.

With that said, remember that it is also your job to ensure that what you post is something that fits the criteria here. Yes, the Writer's Workshop is a safer place to get feedback, but remember, the workshop is to test out stories that you intend to post but are just not sure of. Therefore, the same quality should be put into something on the Workshop as something that would go on the main site. When you post into the workshop, your ultimate goal should always be to get that work moved over to the main site after receiving critique from the users there.
