Woah. You guys are some cold-hearted s.o.b.s. :B
Nah, just playing. Personally, though, I'd just send the reviewer/pmer a return saying something along the lines of "thanks, really appreciate the gesture, but...no."
Something of the sort happened to me, but it was with a persistent user on ff.net looking for a beta for Code Geass. I was busy and kept telling him/her the politest way I could "hellz noeh, plz," but he/she just kept nagging me. So I told 'em to screw off in the end and it worked. <3
Moral of the story? Not sure...

The moral of the story is that you just can't get away with being nice to some people.

Yeah, that fits. :p
Suddenly on topic:
Yay, Pen. <3 This mattered to me becaus it was the first oneshot I did that was actually as long as it was--that, and because I thought I butchered Saix and made the whole thing corny. D:

Hohoho! You get nowhere with being nice those days.
And Elf, that must have rubbed you just the right way.
...Now I must go write a story about what really would have happened if you threw a Mary Sue into an anime-world not saying that your OC is, of course.

The use of words expressing more than that of their literal intention! Now that. Is. Irony.

You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word.

Guys, I just got the greatest review-- well i mean, not the greatest, but considering the goal of my fic was to break people's hearts, this one takes the cake.
ahahaa. made my day. I mean, sorry to the readers I've tragically crushed, but that was the point, and the fact that it's working really makes me smile.

Now, these reviews I like. The reviewer said something good, then also said where it needed improvement. Makes me smile that there are people out there who care.

Love those. Check this out!
(Warning: Egoism is...egoism.)
Ever since I decided to attempt writing pairings I never thought I would, I got loverly reviews for them. Me is happy.
Writing this for the sake of humour, it's nice to know someone thought it fulfilled its purpose. C'mon, who doesn't love these?
Found the best friend I've been looking for.

Hope's fantastic for reviews. She even reviewed our joint work!
She reviewed about a door! This, my friends, is what awesome-beta-ness is made of.

*is embarrassed* Aw, well Kas it was really good. Seriously, I only have like 6 faves on my account and yours is one of them. And... as for the 'door' thing... well, I was impressed, and it was like 4 in the morning for you so I couldn't tell you on MSN. *Scours through reviews to see if she has something worth quoting* I nearly had a heart attack when I read that bit about canon. I was really trying to make that story fit in alongside what was there in the game so this review made me very happy. Oh, and, it's help a noob time again... can anyone tell me how to put quotes into those quote boxes? EDIT: to add 'cool boxy thingums' as Moira so awesomely puts it
