I comment on stuff to try to make discussions active, it rarely works.
That's just not true. I've made comments that I thought desirve no reply but humans find a way. If there's no comments to read the shared content just isn't that interesting. If I see comments then the shared content must be interesting enough to justify a discussion.
Of course it helps. But some of my shitty comments are scaping the bottom of the barrel of my knowledge or patience with the replier...
I comment because I crave validation from Internet strangers.
I agree.
That's a very good comment
You know what? i just did!
This is something I've learned from online game forums. You actually have to be divisive to get a high amount of concurrent users.
It only seems to be the shit-shows that anyone feels obligated to post in.
Well I think you're wrong, fuck you and your opinion /s
I actually don't know to what extent I agree with you, but your theory certainly feels plausible to me. It reminds me of the internet adage about how the best way to get a right answer to your question is to be wrong. I can't remember what it's called.
Cunningham's law. And just to buck the trend, you didn't have to get it wrong to get the right answer ;).
Aye, cunningham seemingly meant it as the fastest answer though, which was the sentence right afterwards in that wiki entry. So maybe mr. anarchist-with-a-machine-fetish would have gotten an answer earlier if he had said it was the anti-murphy's law.
Well i think it’s stupid that we need that divisiveness
And I never said you said it was a good thing.
I’ve been pretty successful and keeping conversations going! I DO comment quite a bit, though.
