Authors who care about the grammar in their stories.

Authors who take the time to respond to comments.

Authors who either delete rude comments or respond politely regardless.

Commenters who stay on topic and say things that are relevant to the story on which they are commenting. And if they have a question that could be answered by google, they use google, not the comment section.

Those who criticize objectively and constructively, as opposed to just tearing someone's story down because of things they personally disliked. And as an added bonus, is careful of the language they use to express themselves, with sensitivity to the general tone they invoke - writing more of a balanced or objective critique, rather than one that is laced with disdain or irritation.

Readers who send grammar corrections via PM regardless of whether the author specifically requested it or not, so that the author's comment section is just thoughts on the story, as opposed to a history of all the grammatical errors that were once there.
