Description
Stamp message: I block the Comment Box for: "Adorable," "Cute," "Great job," and "KAWAII!" Please stop typing that.What can I say? The stamp speaks for itself.
Let’s face it. I have seen myself (or maybe you too) draw for more than enough hours and after all that time and effort I finally upload my art feeling confident on my accomplishments. But wait, what's this? What do I get? Not even the first five minutes I get the vague and/or "one-word" comments. I don’t know why but this always seems to bother me; it feels like most of my watchers don’t really care for what I draw or those who don’t watch just don’t care. Whatever their case this lack of attention staggers me. The feeling of discouragement astounds me. The continuous one-comment (and vague) compliments made me lose my confidence to drawing; I began to draw less and less— and I'm not even near the art block.
Most artists love to see comments that will make one laugh, think, and laugh again, or both. Others' favor critiques, and those will vary with person to person— only a few accept critiques; an artist improves by commenting constructive thoughts and suggestions; be creative with your comments and/or be thoughtful, or be funny and/or creative.
However, this stamp isn't really about me and my art; I actually have a good friend of mine— who is a far better artist than I will ever be— who receives vague comments on her art. I swear, she spends so much MORE time than I do— from a few days to even over a week on piece of art— and after all that time she receives is the “one-word” comment on her art by her own empty watchers. I do love her art as it is my personal favorite style; she draws breathtaking pieces of art (both digitally and traditionally drawn) with so much time and effort put into it. And yet it is unfair to her that nobody seems to comment anything better on her art. I began comment on her art that she submits from time to time. From here I do write my longest comments (that I always do enjoy) for her.
Now, I'm not saying you have to go comment long ass comments. She doesn't mind if a comment is only one sentence long. But just the one-word comment really deprives a few. Don't you see that? I feel like they don't care about our art. And they only leave a comment to show that they "care" for it.
After all, and above all, this is DeviantART. Aren't we all supposed to comment longer comments about the art? Never mind, things have changed after a while. Just that one word, ONE WORD COMMENTS, do not help.
I had seen more opinions pop up recently, a fave is different in my opinion. At least you FAVE it; you like what you saw. But think about this! You FAVE it is like you commented and left. Remember, you will forget what you favorite and move on with your lives.
And so, again, the stamp speaks for itself -w-

I would say more, than great job, but I still don't say that much. If I were to type a long comment, I would.

I’ll try...
This stamp does unfortunately portray the words of lazy inflexible commenters. If you were to say something valuable, at least try to have that ‘short but sweet’ context, but enough to satisfy the reader. In a way, imagine if YOU were the reader of your own comment. You wouldn’t want cliche comments, do you?

I understand. But with me, that stamp is nothing but old news and bitter dust.
By today's standard, it's irrelevant.

you know some people can't type that long comments cause it will take their time away from other things to do.
plus maybe they can't think what else to say. idk?

Well said. People who just post comments in just one or two words are not very honest comments. If they compliment anything, they need to explain.

Well, the "Comment Stamp" was made eons ago. And my opinions with small comments had changed... somewhat. The way I see it is like giving a person a penny in their change cup; it's not much but when others see the amount of "one-word" comments it means the drawing had some great attention.
For me, it still bothers me but I won't block people for it.

Yeah. And when they just post comments in one word, it can go against how hard the artist worked.

I don't mind them at all.
It's rare that I get any sort of comment, so I highly value everyone I recieve.

magneticstarks In reply to Angrymonkey2489 [2014-08-06 22:47:47 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, it takes time to right a comment.
So I might not really value the word, I value the time someone has spent writing the comment.

You should see the comments I write to a friend. I write stories to that person to appreciate their work as a whole
The others. eh. Blanks.

But at least you get comments.. more than I normally get except for the handful of people who actually really watch me and like my art

Angrymonkey2489 In reply to S-ibbi [2014-01-24 02:20:19 +0000 UTC]
Yeah... here's the difference: I get more vague comments and from what I saw based on your gallery you get better written comments.
Remember, there's a difference.
