I just hate when people got nothing better to do but to hate on writers. Just ignore jerks like this and just keep doing your thing. I hope this help a little when people get these rude reviews.

Just ignore the link. They will block or delete rude reviewers for those writers who didn't know.
VRW1 If people dislike something, they will often say so. You also can’t censor someone because they say things that hurt your feelings, unless they are crossing the line and making direct threats etc.
I understand that criticism like this can hit close to home for authors our anyone opening themselves up to it by publishing their work in a public forum, but it is something you, or they, need to learn to not take personally. They may be reasonable in why they dislike something, or they may be more passionate. They have feelings too, and this is often them expressing them.
It’s hardest on new authors, but it comes with the job. It’s harsh words to hear, but new authors, and even some older ones, need to learn to be able to “get over it”, or they are not going to be able to make it.
One of the things I like to recommend to any author unsure of their work though is that no matter how good your novel is, there will always be people who still hate it. No matter how bad it is, there will always be people who will love it. Therefore, just write what you enjoy.

You took word right out my mouth. I got no problem with it I very proud of my writing but some writers just have that situation but that a good way to look at it but I would just say in case someone do get in their feelings. It about matter of perspectives if I saying that right.
Yeah. All writers go through this. It's part of the package. It's better to approach things with a clear head and calm emotions. Especially if you start to gather a reader base. So step away to rant offline then return and view objectively.
VRW1 I think even if its rude if its constructive then you should leave it up. If its spam or hate without reading the book then delete them. But in general, there will be a fair amount of people who write rude reviews or not like your book so just take it with a grain of salt & just focus on the novel + your readers who like it.
Yeah, whenever my book gets a flamey review I tend to thank them and apologize for wasting their time. Really hard to keep being a complete jackass to someone who is being nothing but courteous.
Plus deep down I know it pisses them off that I'm not the least bit upset.
Yeah, everybody got their own opinions about it so that good that I get other opinions on the matter but this is for others writers that don't brush it off and for those who get the review. I not talking about the grammers or anything about spelling that normal but talking about (killing yourself) that what the reviewer said. It sometime hit the soul. For those reviewers that say those words. Now that is not a review. That don't help in no way of the writer improvement.
When you get those its always best to remember that your work has at least inspired a deep emotional response from the poster.
