Aside from what I said on Jenn's comment...

with commenting it's always great to get comments that're detailed and tell you what especially stood out for the readers. It always makes me reflect on when I was writing and remember what made me add that bit in :3 But then comments that are filled more with "OMG"s and flailing still make me grin madly and let me know that people are out there actually reading and enjoying my stuff.

Though yes, I don't think the whole "tell me so I can use it again" thing is great... It's nice to know what people especially like, but at the end of the day I write according to whatever my brain comes up with and for the enjoyment I get in actually writing, rather than let others dictate my imagination.

As with commenting myself? I tend to always comment on anything I've read, because I know how much it means to the author... Maybe it's also to do with the fact that I'm super talkative and can't NOT give my opinion or a comment on what I enjoyed XD But yes, I also HATE using my phone to comment on LJ, even if it's a great platform for reading, it sucks for commenting! So I usually try wait till I get to a pc to comment. That's the only time I sometimes let a comment or two get away from me, purely because I forget... >_<

What I do find kinda discouraging though, is when authors then don't reply to your comment... it kinda then feels like they don't care :/ And yes, I know this sounds dumb coming from me as I still have a lot to reply to, but I always do reply... It just takes a while :P I try do it when I post the next update to that fic, I won't let myself post until I've replied to the previous one's comments..

Okay... I'm now spamming you with my rambling... see I comment toooo much X_X lol but one last thing: Irene, you always leave lovely comments ;3
