    I agree to. I'd have many subscribers, and like one comment. But I'm also being a hypocrite, because I do the same. I would subscribe, and not comment. But a lot of us are like that. At least I comment every once and a while.

    I find it difficult to comment >>
    Idk, just feels like school or something ._.
    Plus, I'm terrible about writing what I think about things. Eh.

    That seems to be the ratio. For every like, 20 readers, you get one comment. D':

    Agreed. It's like you'll have 50 readers and none of them will say anything encouraging- don't get me wrong..having readers is cool but it'd be even cooler if there was comments some times ;}

    When I don't comment is because I have nothing to say. I rather get no comments than a comment that says "update soon." I love getting comments as much as the next person, but when I get a comment I like getting a little insight or feedback.

    When I comment...it is long! I just don't comment, I review it. So sometimes I don't comment because I don't have time to or because I have nothing to say. Some pople like to be silent and just read and sometimes those readers are people who clicked on the story and then decided it wasn't for them.

    It's frustrating sometimes...

    Yeah, it's hard to get comments. Sometimes it seems like you slave away only to be beaten in popularity by badly written, overly-cliched stories T^T But yeah, I'm guilty of being a slacker in the commenting department =P
    Though my friend wrote an NC-17 story and got like 300 readers in three days...but only one person had the guts to comment and admit they'd read it XD

    I know what you mean.
    I mean, no one needs to comment like every chapter, but even just one comment appreciating someone's work can make them want to continue.

    Yeash, comments are hard to get here, I'm not sure why. But it also seems like the longer you keep a story going the more people will begin to frequently comment it. I sometimes don't comment because I don't have time, but when I do I try and make an effort to comment.
