Thank Yous = Evil selfish Ploy for attention.

Grab weapons as you read. It will save time.
Ok so I was lurking around at the forum this morning, something I try not to do less I get pulled into the nexus of stupidity. Don't get me wrong there are some interesting conversations over there, and it is a good way to kill some time while FA is down. Anyway I stumbled across a thread in the rant and raves section talking about how people just hate it when they fave a submission and the person thanks them for it. Now right off the bat it caught my attention because I always thank people for watching/faving my work. I generally think it is a common courtesy. Apparently according to people there it is a ploy for attention. I kind of just had to laugh. Are people really so bitter? I refrained from making a comment because I know it really wouldn't make a difference. I just thought it was interesting how people think about something so simple. Anyway if I do thank you for a fave, which I most certianly will. It is a genuine deep down from the bottom of my heart thank you. Believe it or not I do put time and effort into my work (not as much as I should obviously) and appreciate when someone else takes interest. Thank you.
FA+
