"Maybe I didn't want to leave a name out there so people could chastise me."
So, you're posting anon so you don't have to deal with any accountability or repercussions from your opinions. Okay. I can't really wrap my mind around that one, but whatever gets you through the day, I guess.
Look, here's where I'm coming from. Magz and Tess not getting paid for writing the KIMS (though if the universe were fair, they would be paid on par with RIB as far as I'm concerned). They have busy lives and could probably be doing a hell of a lot of other things with the time and effort they spend writing. To go out of your way to post something that you stated upfront was likely going to come off as rude seems...I don't know, pretty fucking petty and mean-spirited. It's one thing if you were inadvertently rude (I've done that myself plenty of times), but it sounds like you realized when you posted it that it was. I think it's fine to offer criticism, but there's no reason to be so insulting about it.
Of course, I'm just a nosy, ass-kissing bitch. I guess I just can't help it.
