So, let me get this straight. You want criticism, but you reserve the right to insult those who offer it? I wouldn't go calling people hicks or anything else because you don't happen to like their criticism. Part of taking criticism is that you take it all. If a critic just happens to be ineloquent enough to say merely, "I like this other one better," then I would go and look at that other one and see if you can figure out why.
