If you’re one of them, your articles are dead. In the world of depression, you need to find ways in order to kick few dollars.
1. Post it, Leave it.
Yes, you wrote an article and after you posted it, you leave it like that. You didn’t share it to your listed friends. It’s like you go to the washroom, “Dispose and flash”
2. No Comments.
It’s not your business to read someone’s work and leave comments. You didn’t leave your footprints and marks on someone’s article. What makes you think that someone will visit your page and leave comments as well? Unless, your article title is eye-catching. Why not?
3. Arrogant You.
Yes, you commented on someone’s article but you’re so rude and arrogant. You provoke the writer instead of understanding her/his style of writing. Trion is one of the outlets of amateur writers. No wonder why the writers deleted your comments.
4. You write it in BAD ENGLISH.
5. You Keep on Clicking and clicking but never leave comments.
6. You never visited someone’s page who commented on your article.
7. You only visit your page once a month or twice a year.
Well? Just like that.

I take my hat of to you for speaking your thoughts and feeling. It can be kind of weird when you leave comments on someones content, but they send you none in return. I fully understand what you’re saying.
December 20th, 2008 at 9:52 am
I understand what you’re driving at and I totally agree.
As far as friends go, I think that friends should comment on one an others works whether they agree with it or not. If you comment on someone’s work and they don’t comment back on yours, that alone shows a persons true character and credibility. However if you have other priorities that keep you occupied a lot of your time and can only comment once in a while, then that’s understandable, as long as you comment as much as you can.
Excellent article, Mys. This is something that frustrates a lot of writers. After a while I would just stop commenting on their work. Friendship is a team effort, it only works if both parties actively participate.

Good article,helpful too.People shouldn’t write crummy comments either.But as the friend list grows,it is harder to read and comment,I try to look at something by every friend occasionally.

So I’ve been wanting to comment on this since I first saw it come up. Three comments later and I still don’t really know what to write. I think that it’s not cool to say rude remarks without having something constructive to say. Well really people shouldn’t be rude period but if they feel the need…
I also don’t think that people should comment just to get views, to me that’s like adding a bunch of random people on my friends list just because I want them to throw me compliments. Anyone on my friends list are there because I like reading their articles and some I added even though they have yet to post any but have commented on mine so that when and if they do post an article I can see their stuff.
Of course I want to support the people on my friends list but I cannot and will not tell a lie and like they say, “If you can’t say something nice then don’t say anything at all.” I want to point out as well, that even if I do not comment it does not mean I don’t like the work but on the occasion some people post a dozen of things at once and while I will want to check them all out sometimes I do not have the time and I want to check out other people’s stuff too. Of course it could also mean I just missed it.
So much for not knowing what to say huh?
December 20th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Or I’m completely speechless as what to say…

great article, it makes a lot of sense. You are right on everything that you put in this article.
December 20th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Very True! I have made a lot of great friend here as well. It took me a long time to figure that out. Thanks…good read!

Blessings!

Mys,
Great article! You made some really good points here. When I first started writing for Triond, my big problem was writing a comment. Sometimes it would take me hours to figure out what I wanted to say. Now I try to comment as much as I can. I would really like to comment more, but to do that, would take me a week to do. I think I’ve made some really good friends here.The Triond family is about one of the best group of friends I’ve come across. I just hope now that My computer problems are straightened out that I can comment more. You did a fantastic job of writing this. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for writing this! I especially agree with #6 hahaha

Excellant article and I agree with you. If you want Triond friends you have to be a good Triond friend. I have had a few rude comments and I just delete them. It is not worth my time to fight with someone. A few days ago a new writer sent me a message and asked if I would read and comment on her work. I have never seen her comment my mine. So I checked out three of her post and sent her a message back. I explained what I thought a good Triond friend was and if she could be a good friend back we had a deal. I have not seen a comment or a message since. I love my true Triond friends, they are the best.

So that’s why I get no views? I only have 4 people added but I read all of their work. I’ll start to comment mor eafter seeing this.
December 22nd, 2008 at 7:45 pm
I can sometimes be seen as a bad Triond friend. I comment when I can, read when I can, write when I can, but life gets in the way. These are good tips though.
December 22nd, 2008 at 11:06 pm
Nice concept. I always try to make it a habit to get back to those who comment on my writing. After all, that’s why I’m here. That, and to see what other people are doing, to read, enjoy and to learn. It’s polite to say thanks.

Mys, I totally agree with all your points in this piece. It takes two to tango..

that’s true, actually i am exactly what you are talkin’ about, when i was new here in triond, but now… i know how to make it right! beginners here, still doin’ that, so im helping them! pls. share this to all the beginners! thank you!

I must say it took me a couple of months to see how Triond worked, but I have not looked back since and have made some lovely friends on the site. I totally agree with your article. Good work.

Great article. I try to comment on all the articles I read. The eceptions are the few that leave me at a loss for words (and not in a good way). This site is fun and addictive. It’s fascinating to read what others have to say.

I agree!! My father and his father and his father were preachers and these 7 things are very similar to things one must apply to many aspects of their lives.

All I can say is that you brought up excellent points in your article – doing those “seven deadly habits” can affect writers’ traffic as well as their earnings. By taking time to comment on other people’s articles (with support and in complete sentences) and proofread yours, you can avoid being so unpopular!
