Spartadog posted this, and I think it's a fantastic idea. One of my New Years resolutions is to connect with my Followers more, so if you could take a few moments to fill this out I'd really appreciate it <3
1 - What motivates you to comment on a submission?
2 - What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
3 - Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
4 - Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
5 - Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
6 - What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
7 - Any suggestions you want to give?
3 - I read every single comment I get. I may not always reply but I read everything.
5 - I get this a lot xD I'm pretty easy to get alone with so long as the person isn't a huge bigot or something.
6 - Aw, thanks! I really want to try and connect with my Followers over the next year (and beyond!) so I guess I should maybe work on the approachability huh?
Thanks for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate it!
I use Weasyl as my primary! Granted that I have a third the followers here that I did on FA, but at least I can post transgender character art without people being outrageous dicks in the comments. Also, while I get fewer commission inquiries, I get about the same number of commissions (that is, people willing to pay the amount of money that I ask for things I am actually willing to draw).

1 - What motivates you to comment on a submission? The submission itself, if something really catches my eye, whether art-wise, subject-wise or written.
2 - What demotivates you to comment on a submission? The artist's attitude, usually.
3 - Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments? Yep, because chances are the artist won't see my comment so why bother (bad habit, I know.)
4 - Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments? Not really, no... though it's always nice when they do!
5 - Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why? Oh man um... honestly? Yeah. Mostly cause I don't know you at all, and I automatically assume people don't want anything to do with me so shrugs
6 - What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)? i.. really have no idea. You seem rather nice and mindful of your followers, and you're a good artist.... that's about as far as my impressions go, mostly due to lack of knowing you.
7 - Any suggestions you want to give? Not really, no! Depends on what, obviously, but off the top of my head I can't think of anything!
