Maybe they didn’t read the author’s note that you placed on the first chapter about the cross post from Tumblr?
Honestly, that's not really the point. The point is that unless an author specifically says "suggestions are welcome" it can easily be taken as "this story isn't good enough here's how I would make it better," especially if you've gotten unsolicited "suggestions" in the past. And that's a problem that's running rampant in the reader community. And I know most people will say it's constructive criticism but... it's really not. There are other people who can and have explained it better, but I'm too tired to look it up right now (and I don’t mean that in a rude “I don’t want to deal with this way.” It’s just after midnight here and almost my bedtime). It's not just that the story has been completely written. It's that I now once again feel like the story, as I've presented it, isn't good enough. And I'm tired of feeling that way every other chapter.
