In Which I Appreciate Your Comments
15 years ago
It's Commenter Appreciation Day! Thanks to everyone who's commented on or critiqued my work; you help me improve and doesn't afraid of anything. Thanks again!
I'm hereby declaring August 21st Commenter Appreciation Day!
We can all appreciate the art, stories, music and more that get posted to the site, but what about the people who give us feedback, praise or just their time? It's time to say thank you! And I don't mean generic "thanks for the watch" shout (hint: nobody really likes those), but an honest "Hey, thanks for taking the time!" kind of comment.
Commenters never get the thanks they deserve. So this Saturday, take some time. Thank one or two people who've commented on your work who make you feel good or just give you motivation. Just take a few minutes to say thanks. It's a simple notion, but commenters (the good ones, anyway!) can make the world go 'round.
Like this idea? Repost the journal, and link back here!

(It would be much more amusing if this got NO comments at all)
Don't tell me that you don't live off the suffering of others.
But yes, I comment thoughtfully when I receive a thoughtful comment. Watches aren't exactly a thoughtful exchange, so I don't see the need to thank/talk much when reciprocating for them.
Anyway, thanks to YOU, Orbital for those comments on that one story that one time.
