jjroland, I get what you're saying!

I too wondered for a long time if there was some Renderosity ebot that handed out some praise to artists to make them feel like someone had stopped by.

I especially was starting to wonder this when I saw the exact same comments on a number of images I was looking at.

The first time I ran into this, I figured, I would go and chekc out this busy art lover's gallery and see what they had to show.

And, voila, no gallery!!

Yep, it does seem mighty suspicious.  Somoone with no gallery leaving gazilions of nice remarks (well, the same one or two copy and pasted) all over.

This does really disprove the whole "trying to get popular" theory and does support the "automatic flatter" hypothosis.

But, as of late, these individuals haven't been stopping by my gallery with their nice comments.  So I now feel left out.

If someone wonders around complimenting everyone on their "nice blonde hair", but walks past you without saying anything, what does that say!? lol.
