Apologies: concrit is a shorthand way of saying 'constructive critique' or 'constructive criticism.' It's been used pretty widely on the writing forums I've frequented as a means to discourage people from being too gungho on ripping into peoples' writing. While ripping into a person's writing can be an excellent way to improve, there are numerous people for whom that does not work -- and so it's better to let someone request getting their writing ripped to shreds, and the word 'concrit' is a gentle way to remind people of that.
edit -curses, foiled again!
