All this thing about popular artists makes me think they kinda like themselves. Well, not exactly, but I personally hate artists who don’t reply to comments they get, even if they got time to. I once commented to an artwork of a popular artist and when they replied to me, I noticed they were sweet, nice and quite kind. Next time I’d better think twice before judging people.

yes because people are sooo mean because they wont respond to one little random stranger on the internet when they get contacted by hundreds if not thousands every single day

they’re so mean for not giving you their undivided attention 

it’s not like they’re just normal people who happen to have a talent that a lot of people like

no

they’re fucking egotistical gods among men who scoff down on the lower world

why the fuck are people so deadset on this concept and why do you think artists turn bitter over time?

Because of shit like this.

Wow Jitters…… You know, it doesn’t hurt to say “Thank you” to the comments that say your art looks great. It lets your followers know that you’re reading the comments and not just posting and ignoring them.

He does, but you’re right, the poster is required to answer every single comment they get, no matter how many! :D

Okay, this is where I get in a “Dunno if he’s helping me or not” territory, yes an artist has a life, but saying thank you, taking or even at least just dedicate a post to all of these fans is always important.

You know why people like Somecallmejohnny don’t get any flack for their works? Because he always takes the chances to thank amd talk with his fans individually

So yeah, be a dipshit, all you want, but thank the people who get you where you are because thanks to them YOU LIVE

This is the not helping kind of post.

Have you not seen how many times we always say thank you in art, blog, video, or in some way to a comment we get?

Let me guess, it’ll only be okay if we respond to everything constantly, no lesser degree or any prior thank yous will suffice.

I’m gonna skip the part about you comparing people because that’s disrespectful. “He doesn’t get that because he does this, despite you perhaps doing the personal equivalent.”

“So yeah, be a dipshit, all you want, but thank the people who get you where you are because thanks to them YOU LIVE”

Here are some corrections for you for what you should have said:

1. Be respectful.

2. Feel comfortable being who you are.

3. You are not obligated to please everybody. That includes catering to all fans.

4. You live because you stay strong enough to not give up.

And from me,

DON’T ACT LIKE A DIPSHIT BECAUSE YOU’LL GET TREATED LIKE A DIPSHIT.

If jitters catered to the fans, Ditzy would be in an abusive relationship with dissy, warden would never have met her and aero would never have been born. Remember, fans rarely know what’s best for your story. Only the writers do.
