Re: Anyone else really miss candid comment culture?

I think there was a period in the early fandom era when most fanfic came through SF zine culture where honest mixed opinion reviews were the norm but a) that was a period where you were often paying money for zines sight unseen through mail-order, and the reviews were being published in different zines, so they were not serving primarily as concrit, and b) once modern fanfic culture started taking shape as distinctly separate from SF zines there was a pretty quick backlash/controversy over that anyway.
