The thing is, people have never given her criticism because they know she has anxiety issues. From what I've seen Alphie's friends go through three stages:
(1) They've just met her. She's pretty perky and cool! She touches faces and butts and does neat cosplays! Of course she has some personal plurks and problems, but doesn't everyone? (2) Uhhhhhhhhhh. This chica has some serious issues. They wish they could help her. They try to be supportive and send the emotes she seems so badly dependent upon. (3) Wow. This poor chick is self-sabotaging and messed up as hell. At this stage one disconnects entirely, either in terms of caring or through defriending.
So see, (1) doesn't see reason for crit, (2) doesn't want to hurt her with crit, and (3) doesn't give a shit anymore about crit.
