“Comment me! Comment me!”
Posted by darkraven14 on August 22, 2008
Something I’ve noticed on the various social networks I’ve been on. Most of them seem to be all out popularity contests. Myspace is notoriously guilty for this as for every one person who doesn’t care if you comment on them or not, there are about 100 that will spam bulletins asking for comments.
That’s some ratio….
It’s different if you post a picture and someone comments on it. But putting up a pic and then asking…no…BEGGING people to comment on it is…well…pointless. Seems like an ego stroke…but when you have to beg people to comment then wouldn’t that HURT your ego?
Now, don’t get me wrong. I like getting comments on my pics or whatever, but I don’t upload them with the expectation of getting comments. I do it just to do it. If I have a nice picture of myself (which is rare) I’ll upload it and that’s that. You comment on it, great. You don’t, eh. I don’t care.
