Lost in a World of Self-Satisfaction
This is written for the people that complain about the comments, that we viewer leave.
There has been a few articles about the comments that some people leave, in the writers work, posted in articles describing how slighted they feel, because their work doesn’t seem to be getting top priority and they also state that the comments are brief. I have come across 2 article that explain the writers feelings and how they don’t really think that people throughly read their work and the other says that they are tired of reading idiot commets, such as; good job and thank you for sharing. It would seem that these articles instruct us on how, and what we should do when we view articles. I have come to value Triond as a support system. I think we are forgetting how to be supportive of each other, and only now are thinking about the articles that we post and how many views we will receive and getting a extensive written review “Noted”. Without returning the favor, to the ones who actually take the time out to view your work, you simply insult them by not viewing their work and complaining about the comment that they leave. This is written especially for those people that do exactly that. This is something that really needed to be said, I am sorry if anyone takes offense, but I love you all, and don’t believe that anyone needs to be insulted about the comments they leave.
I realize today.
That some people, only want things their way.
They get the satisfactions in the post.
But forget what matters most.
Be thankful to those that read.
Because without us no money you’ll receive.
These people who whine, complain and cry.
But don’t read other people’s work.
They just pass right by.
So stop being so rude.
With this ugly, nasty attitude
This only reveals the selfishness in you.

Very well- said. I have no problem reading and commenting on other’s work, however, there are days that I don’t have the time. Some of the comments are idiotic sometimes because I have noticed, but I don’t mind because at least they took the time off their busy schedules to post something. From now on: Let’s all Be Grateful For the Comments that Our Friends and Fans Leave Us. lol. Great article.

Wonderful. We should be grateful to those who care to read and take time to comment. Well said, friend.

Great Job, Thanks for Sharing, LOL.. I do read your work my friend, but don’t even always have time to make any comment, however short it might be.
November 27th, 2009 at 9:52 pm
I agree, it’s well said.
November 27th, 2009 at 10:33 pm
So true. I agree with this. I use triond because I want people to comment on what I’ve written so as I could enhance my writing skills. It is really better if people would seriously read your article and say something more than: good job and thank you for sharing. But i guess not all people have the luxury of time to have long comments

Very well presented article!!

I am here and you know what I think, so I won’t start that now. Glad you spoke your heart

I was trying to make a point not hurt anyone in the process.
November 28th, 2009 at 10:15 am
Very well said!

Comments may be brief, but we can at times inspire others to leave a longer comment, dependant on how hard we worked to prepare an outstanding creative work.
November 28th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
True.

“Very well said” a little support of each other isn’t that bsd. I wish more of us were, instead of just wanting everyone to comment or rate their work and don’t show the same courtesy and stop the ugly put downs, haven’t your parents told you if you can’t say something nice then don’t say anything at all. Very good article.

Good on you! I enjoy reading all types of comments, on both my own work and the work of others. We need to learn to take from comments what we need – be it warm fuzzies, constructive criticism, whatever. I’m all for warm fuzzies and am open to criticism.
