Ignore for a brief moment that I am a vidder and am nominally sortofa writer:
As a reader I noticed that the more I gave feedback, and the longer the feedback, the more the chance that the writer will write more and will write more what I like best to read.
Also?
As I writer, I noticed I got plotbunnies from little throwaway comments in the reviews, and was given that little buzz of encouragement whenever there was a new review.
The end result:
whenever I review, it's pretty near purely selfish; because I want more fic or vid.
::beats dead horse dead-er::
'cause, really, most things work better with positive reinforcement; everyone wins! Whereas with negative reinforcement, the complainer wins in the short-term and in the long-term everyone loses; the producer gets angsty, the product declines, and there is negative feeling towards the complainer.
In an ethics reading for class there is the concept that all morals and the debate of 'morality' can be reduced to the way a person approaches the issue of increasing the sum total of their happiness. I tend to subscribe to the school of thought where the more people are happy around me, the happier I am. Granted, this is probably because I soak up other people's vibes like a sponge. aheh. (squish me and I produce vids! yay!)
Granted, this also makes be avoid people/spaces that get me down like the plague. On the upside, it's made me a neat freak and hence my roommates let me mooch food 'cause I pick up after them and wash the dishes (the process helps me meditate and brainstorm on essay topics).
Speaking of which, I'm gonna go attempt finish my various essays (it's final season), but it might take me awhile: I'll answer every comment but give me a bit of leeway, eh?
