So, I've decided that I'm going to leave ridiculously wandering and chatty comments on whatever I read. Everyone needs encouragement, and if they don't need that, than a pat on the back saying "hell the fuck yeah that was the ish and I saw what you did there" is welcome by even the most skilled writer, I should think. Well, you guys who know me know I have this weird fear of annoying folks with my responses to their fic, which makes it hard for me to comment sometimes. Stupid, I know, especially since I've met *fabulous* people through comments. *shakes head*

Anyhoo, I'll be posting my favorites here. I've already got a few, which gives me hope for an excellent crop of fics again. Hah--crop. :)

You leave the best comments ever, hon. I still have no clue why you feel so uncertain about that cos *you know* what getting a nice rambling comment feels like: fucking bliss on steroids driving a Porsche with a rainbow sombrero whilst eating chocolate-covered sunshine and sipping moon-juice. X Infinity.

*eyes you*

Leave those fucking awesome comments of yours and then report back here with your findings. That's an order, Soldier! XD

Also, heh, crop. *points to icon* Crop!

Heee! Crop!


Wow...that's some seriously damn good feeling, babee, lol!!!

I know how good it feels, yet I'm positively convinced that when I respond to a story by someone I don't know, they're going to hate it. It's a stupid thing, I know! It's some kind of weird ass phobia. But you guy--it's different! You love me! Plus ya'll know what an enormous goofball I am, so...*GGG*

I had to reply to this because yeah I know exactly what you mean. I sometimes leave long rambling comments on fic that really gets to me. Then I tend to delete it all and post the generic "wow that was great" because a) Its what everyone else does and b)I am worried it will annoy because its so long and rambling.Its nice to know I am not the only one *g*

I was just talking with Jed last night about how there is no comment too long for writer! No writer is thinking, "Gosh, please stop telling me how much you loved the story!" LOL! I never understand why people feel that way about leaving long comments!

Heeee!

With me, it's not so much the length of the comment, it's leaving a long, rambling, *thinky* comment about the story, and having the writer be all,"What the hell were you reading? Never darken my door again!", which, by the way has also never happened to me. I'm full of stressing about things that have never happened. *G* It's a talent.

Ha! When people do that with my stories, I'm always like, "Oooh, look how smart I was and didn't even know it!!" LOL! I'm sure that's how the writers you leave comments like that for feel, too!

Hey! I feel the same way! I am afraid I will put down the wrong thing or word it wrong. I make myself post but I am concerned (actually fear is a great word).

That's what I've started to do, just force myself. What the heck--it's not like they know where I live!

*giggle-snort* Ramble away, sweetie! It's wonderful fun getting rambly comments, much better than another iteration of 'wow, great!' to reply to. Which I do. Even when I can't stand the person, which seriously is so not you. *smishes you hard* Your comments are always fun!

*CLINGS*

My people are good to me! :)

I know *I* enjoy getting long comments, I especially love it when folks speculate what is going to happen, it's fun to see their theories and opinions!

I freeze up with comment boxes sometimes! Then I don't leave a comment because I suddenly can't think of anything besides "♥"! I have at least been letting people know when I rec them (with a link to the relevant rec post), but even that is weirdly tough. I feel so shy about it at that point and it's all "my recs notes are so lame! will they think it's adequate?!" *headdesk* But I know that it's a sadly uncommon practice and one that a lot of people genuinely appreciate, so I hogtie the gibbering idiot in my brain, toss it in the corner, and leave the damn link.

LOL!! Here I've been thinking that I'm strange about this and it turns out that lots of folks share my nervousness about commenting and what not. :)

*clinghugs* You guys! your the best!

You've certainly never annoyed me with any comment on anything I've written, no matter how rambly the comment. It's always wonderful to hear from you.
