One can learn a lot form attempting to do C&C... but many people are intimidated by C&C especially in a group forum that will correct them when wrong. I also agree the "WOW's" and "I LIKE IT" on images that may not deserve it, are a bit annoying... as it can encourage someone to continue what they are doing wrong!
Unless the person leaving the comment is lying about what they think, I don't see what your point is.
We often see bad images praised by those who lack even basic knowledge.... and this encourages more of the same type of images. (kind of the reward / consequence thing). And then when someone more knowledgeable tries to correct the initial shooter, and show them a better way... they are blown off or ignored since so many people "liked" it! Hopefully you will agree that that is a "Point"!
The authorities are welcome to step in and explain why they think the noob compliments are wrong.
Ultimately, it's up to the person who took the photo to weigh the comments from all sources and decide what to take away from it.
