If, as an author, you ask your readers for their opinion, so not be upset and act immature when it happens to be something you don't like. Treat your readers with respect. They will stop reading your stuff if they become offended and put off by rude and crass behavior. THAT is just common sense.

Small issue with Wattpad and websites like it: I have a bias against paying people on websites like this one and the other that pays per chapter. It promotes the decline of our literary culture by encouraging people to use a cop out in the form of updating their stories in quantity for money, instead of trying for excellence in the art they are participating in. Wattpad and similar sites are meant in creation  to be a forum, a community, of writers exchanging ideas and advice. Of course, over time, it changed, like most things do; however, that's not an excuse for paying people for updating their stories. If I want to buy a book, I'll go to Books A Million or Amazon. However, I also go there under the pretense that those books have been edited by a real editor. Wattpad, while some stories have great potential, contains, primarily, either fanfiction and/or writings that would not even inherently deserve a $.99 price in the self publishing section of an ebook website.
