With your "the chapter was great" reviewer, does that irritate you at all, or does each "the chapter was great" still make you do the I-got-a-review! squee?
And yes, I totally know how you feel about the character/genre reviews. I would rather have reviews that said things like "Wow, H/D is great! I love how you made Harry ____ in this fic" than just the first phrase.
So, for your long fics, say you had a fic that you finished several years ago, and someone started reading it. Would a short review at the end of each chapter--maybe just a "OMG! So good!" or an "Awwww, poor character X" or "I really want to stab evil!character right now" or something like that--still be cool with you?
