During my writing, I'm always looking forward for the feedback responses I get. Most of the time it's good and sometimes it's not bad but not what I'm looking for. But the feedback that I get that I'm not wanting is the best kind of feedback to get. This feedback is there to help make your paper stronger for the reader to read. That kind of feedback is always good because it will help you with your writing skills. You read the feedback from one paper and then on the next you don't want to make that same mistake.
The good feedback that you want to see is always good, too. This feedback is just positive reinforcement. You want to see this kind of feedback so you keep doing what your doing. When you write a paper you want this kind of feedback because for your revision and future papers to come, it will give you a foothold on what to keep doing for your papers.
Good feedback is always good, but not as important as the feedback you don't want to see.

Tru dat. It is important to have a balance. Of course we'd all like to be told how fabulous our paper is, but even though that feels good, it doesn't really help in the long run.
