I was quite confused about which category to put this in.
Please forgive if it was placed incorrectly, as I actually DID attempt to place it correctly.

Okay....its time to have a little talk about how to
properly thank someone for the

/

.
Spamming someone's comment section full of nothing but thank yous isn't very nice
at all.
Especially when the person you're thanking has been on your friendslist for quite some time.
Friends deserve more respect than that!
It
is kinda shocking to see how many deviants actually think that theyre doing their
friend a favor by posting a non-personalized thank you in their comment section.
But when you stop to think about it, isn't as nice as it seems.
Especially when they comment something like
"Thank you for the fave on........"
And then they put a little linky there hoping that other people will click it, and fave it as well!
I really dont see it as a thank you at all.
Just a shameless plug.
In
my comments section where that sorta thing
does not go!
Here's a great idea right here to help fix the problem:
When you are grateful for a

or

and want to let the person know it... RETURN THE FAVOR.
Fave something from
their gallery if they faved something of yours, and if they
watched you, you should ALWAYS watch them back.
Its only polite!
That is the
proper way to thank someone on DA without spamming them in the process.
Devious Comments
There's many ways of thanking someone, so I can't say I agree 100% - but I definitely agree that using the "thanks for faving this" in the comment section is bad when people use it as a means of advertising their gallery. That's just me personally, heh.
I've also noticed how people are getting more hit counts by favoriting every new picture in the browse section - just to get people to check their page... it's kind of rude, in my personal opinion, because the people have absolutely no interest in the work they're favoriting, they just want page views -_-'' (err...that was off-topic, sorry :S I'm just annoyed at that aspect at the moment -_-)
Some people seriously need to learn to enjoy the community of DA rather than try to get popular or whatever... so I definitely understand your frustration...

Stop in for a visit sometime! ^-^
That and watching, commenting and favouring their work is my way to thank them for watching me

The little devil on everyone's shoulder.
I know that not everyone is going to see things the exact same way that I do.
Im also not excluding the option to return favors in other meaningful ways besides fave/watching.
Thank you for a different point of view

The fact that someone else posted another article on it before I did proves that point.
