Yeah, and in all honesty I don't get that. If you get something rated down, it might mean someone is just being a Dick. Not everyone is gonna be a fan and not everyone is gonna be nice.

Yeah but these are stories that usually most people really like, enough to want to rate it up to green, so it's not like it's the writer's fault. Plus I've never known people who read and write on ficwad to be so bitchy to rate a story down just because they don't like it, usually you give some helpful criticism or just stop reading it.
