I'm uber quick to fave.
Like... REALLY quick. If there's a lot of elements in a picture, or something that really stands out, I have to fave it.

As for comments, it depends. If the artist tends to reply a lot, then they deserve a comment. I totally agree, what's the sense of taking time to say something if the artist doesn't respond? :/
If the submission is something actually personal, rather than the title as "Commission Title" an the description is "." then I'll comment. If someone asks for critique, then I'll do my best to do so within reason.

I've been trying to comment and be more active on the site, so if there's a submission that has a small amount of comments in comparison to the mass amounts of favorites, then I'll make the effort to share my thoughts.

I'm the SAME!!!! commentbros!!!! The reason I even put this journal up is because I took one look at a pic last night, no color, just lines and I loved the pose and the idea and it was conveyed simply and elegantly, and I wanted to refer back to it, so I was like +fav in a matter of seconds. But sometimes I like to appreciate it a little more. Like if I'm weird about comments because I feel like some people get offended easily and I don't want to start anything if I say what I'm thinking, even if its well meaning. Like if you comment about how you liked a pic but the foreshortening seems wrong, or the perspective is off. Then people get mad and shout you down for it...and maybe not even the person who made the piece but followers of theirs that rise up to defend them. I don't want to deal with it, which may be why people don't comment more than some quick horndog statement.

I'm pretty fav as soon as I see it, but that's how I am ^^U

I stockpile my Inbox entries so I can fave them in batches, according to their content rating. If you peek at my favorites, you'll see that they are arranged in clusters of general, mature, adult, mature, general, etc.

Once in a while I'll run across something really interesting by an artist I haven't been watching and I'll hold the page aside if its rating doesn't fall within my current cluster of favorites, until I'm once again faving pieces of that rating. Many times I'll fave a piece or two, knowing that from time to time I go through my favorites without matching watches to see if the artists have produced more material that appeals to me. Sometimes it results in a watch, sometimes it results in a couple more faves, and sometimes I find that the artist hasn't posted anything else in a couple of years or more.

Then there's something that impresses me so much, that like above, I hold off on faving, but in this special case I'll wait till I've used up the current batch of faves in the matching content rating, and then fave it--so it stays at the top of my fave list for an extended period of time (like the current occupant of the top spot :) ).

Comments and questions I do, although I do sometimes look at the comments received/comments made ratio to make a determination as to whether my comment might get a response. (My ratio is biased toward comments made)

I'm a writer, not an artist, so I don't know how much effort goes into pictures. Worth a thousand words? Heck I write some action that would need several pics to describe.

I'm rather a gut-fav'r; pics get some emotion from me. I've done kinky things IRL, so I tend to be critical of others' work. IRL I'm a greymuzzle; I'm well over the adolescent fascination with nudity.

Some folks seem to fave anything with bare bodies. OK for them. But I've seen nudes and kept them so, with their permission. Take a pic in the mirror; it's the same parts.

I hope people who post are self-confident enough not to need "ooh it's the best pic I've ever seen" kinda comments. People become better artists or writers when confusing shading or plot holes are pointed out.

Thanks for posting and mentioning deconstructing someone's work. I think asking a question or putting oneself in the scene is a compliment.
