Photography forums tend to deal with this particular problem by either having sections for C&C or not
Or the poster can say "Please C&C" or not or there is a flag to set.
If people ask for C&C then it should be C&C'd, if they dont ask then it shouldn't.
Some beginners will say "C&C - but take it easy !" and generally the better photographers do so respectfully.
I think half the problem here is that nobody is sure where they stand - the poster or the reader - so you tend to get a random sort of a response.
Also since this is an astronomy forum not a photographic forum, the members have different assessment skills and expectations and in many cases are not really qualified to technically post C&C just opinions on the subject matter which tend to be generally positive per TrevorW's approach.
I have seen plenty of technically beautiful images posted and plenty of snapshots.
But since I dont see this as a photographic forum looking for technical C&C I wouldnt comment publically although I have privately when the poster has asked.
So if I could suggest - if you want C&C - ask for it.
Then it can be given.
If you dont ask for it then you are posting for general interest on the subject only and not the technical merit and none should be given.
