What motivates you to comment on a submission?
Questions to answer, like these.
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
Tons of responses.
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
See above.
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
Very much so.
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
I've never tried, so I dunno.
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
Ever since Planetmind, you've caused strong intrigue.
Any suggestions you want to give?
None come to mind at present.
What motivates you to comment on a submission?
I feel motivated when i like the submission or i'm curious about some detail ^^
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
I feel demotivated when i don't like a submission, when there are too many comments, or when i don't like the author (some great artists are... not "nice" people)
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
As i sayd above, yes i am ^^;
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
I certainly am, it's hard to find artists that reply to people's comments (fanboys replying in place of the artist are instead pretty common)
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
I don't, at least, i don't know you well enough to find you eighter intimidating or not, if i like some picture of yours that i like i leave a comment and maybe a fave too ^^
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
I dunno but you certainly seem like an "available" person ready to do anything you can for those following your works and commisioning too considering you post many different things ^^
Any suggestions you want to give?
Not really, i think you're as pawesome as you are ^^
What motivates you to comment on a submission?
If I think the person won't mind me be a little bit pervy and I want to compliment them.
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
I don't know.
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
Yeah, always.
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
No.
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
No, I just don't want to seem creepy.
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
shrugs
Any suggestions you want to give?
I don't know
1: If there's a conversation going on that I feel like I can add something to, or it's from someone who I think is talented but often underappreciated. Or, in cases like this, if the poster specifically asks for comments.
2: If it's about a topic that I am unknowledgable about or feel uncomfortable talking about. (For an example of each: I don't post on journals talking about trans issues because I know little about trans issues (being a cis man) and would rather avoid accidentally offending someone, and I don't like posting on journals talking about rape as that is an uncomfortable subject for me.)
3: No.
4: Very much so.
5: Haven't really tried starting a conversation with you, but I'd say I don't find you intimidating to approach, as from what little I know of you you seem friendly.
6: You seem like a cool person who genuinely cares about the feelings of those around them and seems to have their life sorted out.
7: Nothing I can think of.
Sometimes it is safer for everyone involved to avoid situations that may spark foot in mouth disease, yeah. I'm all for education, and I like when people ask questions about subjects I'm passionate about. But not everyone feels that way, so sometimes, yeah, it's safer to just read quietly.
Thanks for answering!
What motivates you to comment on a submission?
Bad puns, internet memes, and artist commentary. Sorry, I rarely have comment on the art itself. Sometimes there is discussion going on regarding the piece or its meaning and I like to join in on that.
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
Negativity, bigotry, malice.
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
Quite the opposite!
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
I comment when I feel I have something worth saying, I do not base my commenting habits on the activity of the artist, unless they are a friend and I am trying to goad them into a reply. ;)
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
I do not find you intimidating. When we first started talking, I felt very at ease, and what little I know of your personal life comforts me because I feel I can relate. As for commenting on your artwork, I have anxiety and get uncomfortable trying to initiate conversation about a lot of things.
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
It's been a long time since we've really had a heart to heart. When we met at MFF (07, 08?) I was surprised to get the opportunity to chat with you and correspond via email and LJ. You were generous in that regard, enthusiastic, you put me at ease and were not judgmental about subject matter that I enjoy but makes me uncomfortable discussing. Based on your art activity, you are a consummate and professional artist. You've been able to work hard at something you enjoy doing, and seem to shower your loved ones with copious examples of your skill.
What motivates you to comment on a submission?
Nothing really, I rarely comment on submissions but when I do, it's derpy as fuck. x3
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
Dunno
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
Nah. May take a while to scroll to the comment box but nah.
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
Nah. x3
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
Nope, I don't find any fur intimidating. xD
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
Cute. owo
Any suggestions you want to give
Nope~.
If I have something useful to say. Sometimes also if I am extraordinarily impressed by something which inexplicably has no favorable comments, also. But usually I avoid comments like "this is awesome" because I think that's what Favorites are for. Also sometimes I try to push myself to be social and comment just for the purpose of being active.
This is my default state.
Usually. When there are a lot of comments, I find that what I was going to say has already been said so... not useful.
Don't make no nevermind to me.
5. Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
No, seeing as we've chatted occasionally. But as a general rule I find everyone hard to approach.
6. What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
Well, you know my motto - don't make assumptions.
7. Any suggestions you want to give?
I think I dig your personal stuff most of all and would love to see more of it.
I don't suppose this'll be terribly informative or helpful, but there's my two cents anyway.
What motivates you to comment on a submission?
usually something i really like. I'm more of a favourite-r than I am a comment writer. I want to comment more tho
What demotivates you to comment on a submission?
I don't think i've ever been demotivated when it comes to commenting. I don't believe I've encountered a situation where i wanted to comment, and then didnt.
Are you discouraged to leave a comment if the submission already has a lot of comments?
nope!
Do you feel more inclined to leave a comment in a submission if the artist usually replies to its comments?
not really I don't think? I don't actively watch reply percentage. I mean it's cool if they do, but not a game changer if they dont
Do you find me intimidating to approach? Why?
I did when I first met you <3 since I had heard such wonderful things. I felt...hm, unworthy kind of? Like "little me, i'm a nobody, why would they want to hang out with me???'
What impressions do I give off (or, what do you assume about me)?
very caring, motherly (in a masculine way...saying fatherly doesnt have the same connotations to me), you know what you want and need and will do your best to get/keep it.
Any suggestions you want to give?
feel awesome because you are! <3

A poster that replies to comments is very encouraging. I also try to keep to a rule of commenting on anything I favorite, just as a matter of trying to keep community happening and knowing that feedback is cherished.
Non-replying posters. Too many creepy comments flying around. There is a level of creepy I can handle before I step away.
Nope.
Yes, as above.
Nope, we shower together. :V
I LIKE YOU.
DRAW MORE ARTS.
