Hmmm

Fri Aug 7, 2009, 2:53 AM
Not that I'm complaining, per se, but I notice my more recent drawings of the WoW variety have been getting lots of favs but no comments. Not that that in itself is a big deal...if you don't have anything to say, you don't have anything to say. But it is odd, to me, to have a work favorited often but no one commenting on it in any way, good or bad, critique, or whatever.

So I go to the pages of those who fav'ed me, yeah? And like, half of them are like fav bots. Or something. I go to their comments section and I see a wall of "TY 4 TEH FAV!! <3333" type comments all within minutes of each other. And then I think of the late great CS-Chan. She would fav TONS of artwork so that she would get loads of pageviews from people coming to say thanks.

I really hope that's not what's happening here. I like to think my stuff gets fav'ed because people (for whatever reason o_o) like what they're fav'ing. It's just suspicious that most of those who favorited those pieces have that kind of apparent mas-fav'ing history. If you go to thank someone for a fav and you see their comments section reads:

5 seconds ago: Thanks for the fav!

3 minutes ago: Hey, thanks for the fav! <3

5 minutes ago: OMG Thanks for the fav!

7 minutes ago: TY for the fav!

11 minutes ago: Thanks for the fav!

12 minutes ago: Thanks for the fav!!!!

15 minutes ago: Thankies for teh fav!!

...and so on, ad nauseum. Wouldn't you be a little weirded out?


I called in today. Blargh.
