A :+fav: means different things to different people, and its revered or loathed by different artists. But DA has given people a choice: they can :+fav:. Or they can comment. Or they can do both. It’s all optional.

So some people leave you a favourite and don't comment.  This isn’t because they're lazy or selfish. Perhaps in their opinion it’s already perfect. Perhaps they can see upteen other comments that all say what they're thinking. Perhaps they're out of time. Or perhaps they just like the image for some inexplicable reason.

People do not need to justify why they are faving something.

Sometimes I’ll :+fav: and dash. But just to knock home the point, I comment a lot more than I fav. Why? Because to me the fav is the icing on the cake. I use it when something just can't get any better. That's what a fav means to me.

Sure, many artists want some constructive criticism. I know I do. But demanding it won’t get you anything of value. Don’t whine when someone gives you a :+fav: without a comment.

Please refrain from flaming, bickering or squabbling with each other in comments. Sensible debate welcome.

Oh God I sound like a Retard XD I was saying that Faves would takes less time to reply to than a comment which kinda spams your inbox by saying nothing other than "Its cute I like it" Even though thats what I say alot of times XD

A lot of those whiners are taking this for granted too; tons of peeps would kill just to get either a fav or a comment on their work. >_>;

:p Everyone who complains about only getting faves, should stop. Because eventually we will tire of your rudeness and just ignore you all together. Herehere! To this user.

I understand faving without commenting on just a picture, but on a long comic series with many many pages or etc I think it is pointless to favorite period. Unless you just LOVED a few particular pages because it was funnier than the others or whatever. Do you know how annoying it is when you go on DA one day and see all this crap in your inbox:

"*insert username here* added comic page 1 to their favorites"
"*insert username here* added comic page 2 to their favorites"
"*insert username here* added comic page 3 to their favorites"
"*insert username here* added comic page 4 to their favorites"
"*insert username here* added comic page 5 to their favorites"

and it keeps going on and on and on with every page you have. (in my case almost 300..., then it takes forever to remove it all because it gets laggy) I freaking hate that. At least I have fun reading the comments saying "OH NO, THIS HAPPENED" and then replying to it and stuff...

Just stating my opinion on stuff.

Yes, but some may want to have the entire comic in their favorites history so that they can go back to it. I've done that before. And I've had it done to me. So I rather like when they do that. but that's me. :shrug:
