JUST LEAVE A COMMENT FEST MASTERPOST
HELPFUL COMMENT RESOURCES
MORE TO COME!
MORE TO COME!
"The case was simplicity itself. Mr Businessbones and his brother, the Captain, were involved in a comment smuggling scheme. When they tried to draw you in, you where appalled, and they became terrified you would blow the whistle on the whole operation, a fear that was, I am sure quite grounded in reality. They had to get rid of you, Skelly, and so they kidnapped you and shipped you off to the skeleton war. As a mindless drone, they hoped you would suffer the same fate as so many skeletons had before. But you were able to break through the deprogramming all thanks to -"
"THE COMMENTS. IT WAS THE COMMENTS THAT BROUGHT ME BACK."
"... Indeed."
missed the comment fest but that's about the time I started to comment regularly 335 comments in 2 months!
Will there be another one soon?
THATS AN AMAZING AMOUNT OF COMMENTS! I WAS TRAPPED AS A MINDLESS DRONE IN THE SKELETON WAR BY PEOPLE I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST FOR LIKE THE LAST MONTH BUT IT'S THE LAST DAY OF THE FALL FEST TODAY!!!
Okay I finally figured out what a script manager is and downloaded the floating comment box and it is a GAME CHANGER HOLY SHIT.
The only reason I don't put literally every thought I have into the comment box is that it pulls me out of a fic, but now I can just write my own mini novel in every chapter and I'm obsessed.
tldr thank you for sharing that! My author brain is so much happier now that I'm leaving more comments!
THE FLOATING COMMENT BOX IS TRULY A GIFT FROM THE BONEY COMMENT GODS!! INSTANTLY IMPROVES COMMENTING RATE!
Story time! I participated in the April mini-event and left a comment mentioning to the writer that it's okay to throw the link into the same comment thread if they ever write something for the similar topic since it was a really interesting interpretation of the character... So they did send ьe the link in August, and yesterday I had just enough energy to finally read and comment 🔥 In the comment I mentioned how them remembering to send me the link feels very special...
Today I received their reply and it absolutely obliterated me 😭 /pos They basically said that it's hard to forget such a good reader who leaves long and detailed comments; and guys, let me just tell you - it feels as good as a comment on my own work 🥹
YESSSSSSSS BE THE COMMENTOR YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD THIS IS GORGEOUS!
i wanted to let you know that you have inspired me into completing writing prompts by commenting on fics that match those prompts (for example, there's sapphic september but i am burnt out so instead of writing im commenting each day a new fic) and honestly it's making me feel better, even when not being 'productive' i feel the fandom alive when talking to the authors. thank you
KEEP THAT FANDOM ALIVE!!! YOU'RE DOING AMAZING
My sibling and co-writer has been going out of their mind with all the comments they've gotten over the last few weeks. Impossible to say how many have been because of this, but it's come just in time for them to actually write on it. (They had no idea what's going on)
Between the sun returning and the 3 week "it's too hot" holiday version Australian industries take, November is the perfect time for this.
(i promise I've been doing my part to leave comments where i can this fest, too)
YESSSSS DO YOUR PART LEAVE THOSE COMMENTS!!
have a lovely day ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
YOU HAVE A LOVELY DAY TOO ANON!!!!
LETS THANK THOSE DETECTIVES FOR HELPING TO FIND ME BY FINDING SOME DETECTIVE AUS AND LEAVING COMMENTS COMMENTS COMMENTS BABEYYYYYYYY
I like to write any comments I have on a fic in public bookmarks so I and others going thru them can see my thoughts easier. If I have questions or want to address the author directly I’ll write a comment, but I do that less often. The main difference is “This fic is great and you should read it. It has a,b,c-” vs “I love this fic because of how you wrote a,b,c-“.
Does it make a difference to authors if I only do the bookmark? Do authors read public bookmarks? Would it help at all if I copy-pasted and my bookmark notes in the comments (with a little rewording) just to cover my bases?
Thanks for this whole campaign <3
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LEAVE IT IN A COMMENT!!! AUTHORS GET A FUN LITTLE EMAIL WHEN SOMEONE LEAVES A COMMENT. THEY MAY NEVER EVER SEE IT IT YOU'RE WRITING IT IN A BOOKMARK.

"Ah, but Captain Businessbones, you see, I know all! I know how you and your brother conspired in your illegal comment smuggling operation - the exquisite Ms Bonegold has already revealed this to my associate! There is one last piece of this puzzle, and you will it to me."
