Ok, so really random post. But this has been annoying me for so bleddy long!
Today I read back through one of my blog posts, It was about 2 weeks old, and I noticed that there were at least 15 comments that I hadn't replied to, I'm always so on top of replying - but I remember at the time I was away in Cardiff, so I read the comments, uploaded a new post, and forgot about the comments I didn't reply to.
As soon as I looked at the post and saw how many people I didn't reply to, didn't thank, I felt so bad, and so guilty for not acknowledging these lovely people who took a minute of their time to comment on my post. They didn't have to. They chose to. And I didn't reply. So off I went, replying, tapping away at my keyboard thanking everyone and apologising for being such an idiot for forgetting haha. But this honestly made me think a little - Im the type of person to always comment on blog posts, but I've started to notice that a fair few blogs I comment on, the comments just sit there without acknowledgement, and the people asking questions don't get their answers.
Now I know, that a lot of people get tonnes and tonnes of comments, and replying to every single one would just be ridiculous - But I think that if someone takes time out of their day to read your post, and comment on it, they at least deserve some sort comment back.
Im not really too sure what the aim for this post was, I don't really think there was one, I think I just want to know what your opinions are, am I just over sensitive? - should I feel really bad if I don't reply to comments? Do you reply to your comments?
Personally, I just think it's polite, or am I over thinking it? It's only a comment after all haha..
Either way, let me know, do you reply to your comments? Does it bother you if people don't reply to yours?
