Controversial opinion and I don't mean to cause offense but this type of comment is an example of what posters on this site don't need. Yes some people won't be as good at writing stories as others but that's life. People have different backgrounds, levels of education and confidence. Many people, me included, find writing stories on this site a release and almost a glimpse into what potentially dream scenarios for them would feel like and how they would play out. If you don't have anyone to tie/be tied by then there is really little alternative other than writing stories and watching the odd video. These stories may be 'terrible' in your opinion but to others they could actually be exactly what they wanted.
Also the suggestion that because no one comments on them, they are terrible is arguably not their fault. There is often complaints on this board that not enough people comment on stories so there might be a chance that these particular stories may just be a victim of that.
I'm sorry if I've ranted a bit too long but I felt I needed to stick up for 'the little guy'. My message is if you like posting stories on this board and as long as they comply with the rules here, continue to do so. Don't let anyone tell you you're rubbish or try to stop you posting stories that aren't to their taste as everyone has different preferences. However equally, constructive criticism should be listened to if it helps you and you see it benefiting your writing. Finally, bear in mind that if you have no comments, don't presume its the fact no one likes what you wrote. In this day and age, people may just simply be busy or simply too shy to comment their thoughts.
To all you writers out there that continue to post, I salute you, as without you the site would die pretty fast.
