So? Artists are more than welcome to manage DA accounts however they see fit. That includes blocking you for unsolicited feedback.

Again, no it is not. Banning someone who says something you don't like is childish, not the sign of maturity. It actually shows that you know your work isn't that good and don't want people to believe there are problems with it. Let them say it, if you believe it is wrong it doesn't matter and shouldn't bother you. An adult response is to ask for clarification, not take it as an insult and ban the person.
It doesn't matter what you think or feel. They weren't looking for your feedback and did what they had every right and ability to do in response to it. It isn't relevant whether you perceive the behaviour as juvenile. It's their party, not yours.

And btw, critique and criticism are basically same thing. It is just criticism is used to push away critiques you don't like. Critiques are not required to be constructive or not. You are playing semantics.

Definition #2 a criticism!
It doesn't matter. They didn't want your feedback, be it constructive or otherwise. You gave it unsolicited and they turfed you. Boo hoo hoo.

If someone came to my cocktail party and told me how much better I looked in that dress last August, I'd turf them too.

Don't correct someone when you do so incorrectly.
Oh, get over yourself. Someone didn't want you at their party. You invited yourself, gave unsolicited feedback and they booted you. Now you're whining, as if you were entitled to access to their page and criticising their work without invitation. You were not. Now you're blocked. Enjoy.
