*nod* makes sense. There's a crucial difference between "I like this story, but it needs changes"; "This isn't my cuppa, but it works"; "Well-written, but it bores me to tears through no fault of your own".
Being able to distinguish these three is critical to good, constructive feedback on writing... Not to mention, knowing each person well enough to know how to say "OMG, this sucks sooo bad! *claws eyes out*" so that the person will actually listen to the feedback. ;-)
