Your wish was received. I don't mean to be rude, or cause offense, but I just wanted to seriously respond to you. Not as a jerk, not as an "online bully" but just because my curiosity has gotten the best of me.

Why write such a passive aggressive text? How does that benefit you?  Don't call people you know nothing of fools. They write to leave supportive comments simply from a good nature. A kind response to something they enjoy. While I don't have time to respond to each every comment personally, I can appreciate the support that I get from every one of them. With it, I hope to continue to (hopefully) inspire others to continue doing their art and following their passion. Isn't that why you're here?

Otherwise, why did you create an account? Why write all of the posts you have in your journal? Why comment on this? 

I know you'll probably laugh at this, and think I'm a fucking loser--but man to man, have just a little respect for others and don't be so quick to judge. Have a good one.

Let me lead with something, this comment wasn't said towards you. It was meant for all the people who do occasionally read comments before posting their own. So before I even read the rest, do know that I will not see you as such, not even close. If anything, that would be me in this case, especially since you thought I was talking to you. My apologies for that, by the way. 

I'm here for many reasons, and ironically enough, art isn't one of them. All the same, why, you ask? Because aside from quite literally one comment aside from my own and your reply...they're all the same. Either asking you something about gaming or telling you the most bland of things. "Epic"/"Awesome". Yes, they are technically supporting you...but how empty...I mean you get this on everything you do, and I know that some part of you, even if you fight against it, has said the very thing I'm thinking now. "How effortless." Your art is breathtaking, and it deserves comments that point that out in great detail...not things saying "That's badass -insert emoji here-" But that alone is not my main reason. They're supporting someone who, for the most part, doesn't bother. NOW! Let me make something clear. I'm not saying you're in the wrong, quite the contrary. You are presumably very busy, and you most certainly have a life, and keeping up with all these mediocre comments would be beyond tedious. Plus, they'd always want replies and then try to become your best buddy. You're famous, after all. But they are supporting you by watching you, and telling you the same thing over and over again isn't going to support you at all. The point I was getting at is how no matter what, people will always leave the same, dry, boring comments on anything that looks amazing because they hope for a reply, and nothing more. You don't go to some random person and just say "Awesome xD" for others to see, you say it for the artist to see, and that's why they do it. So you see it, and reply. You saw them watch you, they know that, so why seek more? Because they want a reply. They want to be acknowledged as people, not just a number. And you cannot be expected to give that to them. At least not reasonably. 

So my point...is that they are simply letting their simple nature get the better of them. You're not rude nor stupid for ignoring them, but if you were to ignore a critique that was valid, then I'd think you a fool. But no, these comments are as empty as the  bones of a corpse long since dead. 

We all have our reasons for things, be it art or otherwise, and with that means I have my own, albeit a bit askew.

I couldn't have laughed, to be honest. I was rather stunned you'd make a reply, and again, I'm sorry you took it as you did. Although maybe you knew what I meant and still was against it, and in that case, I take nothing back. I left the comment assuming you yourself would never actually look at it, so I'm sorry to have caused you some distress. 
But no to a few things. No, I don't think you're a fucking loser, I actually respect you a rather good deal. And no, sadly, I won't have respect for people like that. Everyone is quick to judge, at least to an extent, and so I judge from what I know. I do hope you have a good one as well. You deserve it.

Well being anything other than civil when you gave me such a reply would simply be rude.

Cheers. But you can imagine my hesitation to give someone the benefit of the doubt with the way most online communication is, haha.

Believe me, I certainly understand, and again, it makes perfect sense that you'd assume I'd react in such a way because of how you viewed my comment. Worry not, hehe.

Now that you mention Evangelion, makes me think of a cross between Eva and Elite's from HALO
