So, I know of course that it's standard for prettymuch any website to have a notification system that tells you when you get new comments, subscriptions, etc...
yeah, no problem there, wouldn't have it any other way...
But the thing that's bugged me for a really long time, and that I'm frankly surprised has not been addressed yet, is the fact that it sends us a notification when we comment on our own stuff O___o...really?...I'm mean it's just kind of annoying.
I dunno about everyone else, but I really don't need to be notified that I commented on my own picture guys, thanks, the short term memory thing in my brain works pretty well.
I mean yeah it's not a huge issue, it's a minor annoyance, but it's just completely unnecessary and it's been around since the advent of Version V...just kind of...sloppy...-____-
I know no one's gonna see this being I'm so little-known here, but...
...have fav-and-runs gotten Worse in the past few months???
seriously, used to be I'd submit a picture of a character and it'd get at least one or two comments before it was buried beneath other submissions.
but lately all I get is favorites - which are nice, don't get me wrong - but ZERO comments, nothing, zip.
I Know it's gonna happen, I do the same thing myself sometimes, I'm guilty too I admit, I think we all do it sometimes. but that doesn't change the fact that it IS annoying when it becomes as extreme as this.
and it's getting just as bad on deviantART as it is here on Otaku too, it seems to be a universal epidemic.
I mean I don't expect everyone to have something to say, but now it's like people aren't even bothering anymore.
seriously, if you like an image, it would be really nice if you at least try to tell the artist WHY you like it. what features stand out to you? how does it appeal to your tastes? etc. etc. I don't expect an essay or anything, just maybe a quick "I love the eyes" or "the outfit is great" now is it really THAT time consuming to write a quick comment like that??
even I comment sometimes, it's not that hard, seriously people, at least think about it and give it a try.
