    Luckily, with comment swap I've never gotten a comment like that, because I would be seriously ticked off. >_> If I comment swap with a person I don't want the words "comment swap" to be in the comment or for over half of it to be about my layout. Facepalm

    That's lame! That's how I feel about comment swap here where the entire comment is about how much they like the layout, I'm like "biotch I know for daaaaaamn sure you didn't read my story" Insert three snaps and a head bob

    I didn't really like Wattpad, so much so I deleted my account and everything. Over half of the feedback I received was: I like your story please comment on mine (link here). :c

    Personally, I've come to like Wattpad but that's mainly for my fandom on there. I only post my SCANDAL stories to Wattpad and wattpad has a pretty good SCANDAL community. Honestly, you won't have readers on wattpad unless you've got a good community or are one of those super popular authors. It's even harder on wattpad to get feedback or readers in general than it is on mibba. I get enough readers personally. I don't have a lot but I'm happy with what i do have as the SCANDAL fan base on there is very sweet and very welcoming.

    You don't have layouts on wattpad but you can make covers, they're a lot larger than mibba's as well. Wattpad is definintely not as interactive. It doesn't have forums nor does it have blogs. Overall, wattpad isn't as good as mibba. But if you can find a good community to be a part of on there, it can be worth it to stick around.

    Ehhhh..... I have a weird relationship with Wattpad. I find it decent for finding some original fictions to read if you know exactly what you're looking for, but for everything else, I absolutely despise it.

    I post some stories there, but I never feel like the stories get noticed even the slightest bit. It's like the only stories people read on that site are the ones that are already super super popular. I mean, I know you say Fiction Press is a ghost town now -- and I agree, in comparison to how it used to be -- but I get more hits and reviews for the EXACT SAME STORY on FP on one chapter than I ever do on the whole of a story on Wattpad. I don't see a community, either. There might be one, but I've never found it.

    I've never found a site that had community aspects and an ability for your stories to be seen and commented on like Mibba, unfortunately. And Mibba can be iffy if you're not writing very specific topics.
