"you don't spend much time commenting on other arts, don't watch much ppl, your art is great, but it's not the best in the world"

I don't know why, but I find that a little offensive. I understand you meant it as a compliment, but thats actually quite harsh AND inaccurate.

1.) you don't spend much time commenting on other arts

if you recall, thats how you met me. I commented on [link] I remmember seeing it in the recent uploads and thinking it was cute. Also, even if you compare how many comments I have given compared to you, I have given out 4000. You have given out 400.

In your gallery stats: This means that he gave 23 comments for every 10 that he received.

In my gallery stats: This means that she gave 34 comments for every 10 that she received.

I give out more comments then I get. I REGRET it that I don't have the time to always get back to everyone, unfortunately my friends sometimes are the ones that get missed out on. I regret that a lot. I'm sorry and I really appreciate your attention, everyone. I hear people saying "I read every comment I get!" I not only read it, but I try to return the favor. Sometimes when I know that the artist comments a lot and when I run out of time I just kind of skip over them. Its a terrible habbit, but we are all busy busy people.

2.) don't watch much ppl

Thats true... for the moment. This is because I left to University and I knew I would not have access to the internet when I got there. I have no idea how many people I watched before, but I think I had almost 100 (I comment on almost all if not all the pieces in my inbox. So it would be impossible for me to watch a lot of people) This means I had to remove everyone from my list that wasn't a really good friend of mine. Thats also the reason why I don't have a very good comments per day average--I was unable to access the internet for the better half of two years now. Please understand that. I KNOW I should watch more people, but I take it very seriously to just even add ONE person to my watch.

3.) your art is great

why, thank you. Thats a lovely thing to hear, and I appreciate that.

4.) but it's not the best in the world

when did I claim it was? I know its not the best. But I'm not the kind of person who bitches when I think a piece isn't as good as I hoped it would be. I hate pity artists who complain for comments. I try my best to keep optimistic about myself, my art, and my style. I work hard on what I do, so even when I don't completely like it I know I put a great deal of effort into it and I can see how far I have come over the years.




I'm sorry for the rant, but I've heard you comment on my art before and say "its not the best" or "you could get better" or whatever. I appreciate that, but its true for EVERYONE and ANYONE. SO I don't understand why you feel like you have to say it for me.... if its because you think I have a lot of potential and want to see me get somewhere then I really appreciate that.

But please.... never accuse me of not being a good community member. If you don't know what engineering is, you should look it up. I know its not an excuse but I honestly have NO spare time at university. Its no wonder I can't always "keep up".
