I found this interesting... Some of these points have been largely discussed here in DPC...
How to deliver a useful photo critique?

"And that is at the heart of the critique, wanting to help the other improve. Anything less is simply complaining or touting one’s own mastery of the art, neither of which really help anyone (except the reviewer’s own ego)."
There is a 4th option: wanting to express the impact a photo had on you. It's the most valuable option, imho.

Hmmm, where does a Grog comment fall in all this? Or any comment not directly related to the impact or quality of a photo?

Never thought of it that way before. I just thought I was being an amusing idiot.

And this whole time, I thought we were just supposed to berate people.

Wasn't there a Monty Python skit based around that idea?

As the only active CC member at this time, I will be quite happy to comply - but an extra $20 for berating.
