 Message  Good point, Wolfie. And I’m not the mother of anyone here, either, but, contrary to you, I DO care. I find it totally unpleasant to muck around in garbage and reading all that stuff is the literary equivalent of mucking around in garbage. In my opinion, that is. 8^) mae.

 Message  Maybe things would be a lot more pleasant if every other word on this site wasn’t "shit" or "fuck". But I’m not your mother. Why should I care...

 Message  ES has cliques, kind of like high school. Some people get tons of comments - for various reasons. Some of them are (or used to be) the leaders on the site and everyone wants to comment on their writing and some are just plain good and everyone wants to read what they’ve written. By and large, however, if you want more comments, you’ve got to give more comments. I haven’t looked at your ratios, but if you comment on the writing of some of the more established authors on ES, they will usually return the favor.

That seems to be a hard lesson for some people to learn. Many of the younger writers just whine and complain that they don’t get comments, but they also don’t GIVE comments. It really does work to give comments first. mae

 Message  You know.. I actually have to agree with you. Well, I wouldn’t put it in those terms exactly-LoL-but I understand what you are saying. I’ve read on here how people get 9-15 comments per entry, but everything I’ve read (and submitted) was lucky to get just one. This seems like a really nice site.... it’d be nice to see it "brought to life". :)
