This does make me feel a little better about my chronic internet addiction. Early on I commented even more because so many good posts sat with zero comments and I wanted more people to view them and hopefully add their own comments.
Edit: I also want to add being online all the time is why I volunteered to mod. I was not aware every one of my comments would appear with the mod icon at the time :|
I’m with you there. On Reddit I was overwhelmingly a lurker, but here I actually make an effort to regularly comment on things purely because I hope to get others talking. Once my work is done, I’ll go back to watching from the shadows. (In the least creepy way possible.)
