deviantART is babies

When I browse deviantART, I comment on things that I think are particularly original or striking. In doing so, I can't help but notice the other comments on the artwork. Many of these are either 1-3 words of positive, vapid encouragement. I'm going to get straight to the point: ARTISTS DON'T GET BETTER WITHOUT CRITICISM. Also, saying something is "Awesome! I love it!" is ultimately going against the artist because it shows you glanced at their piece, saw that they put some work into it, perhaps favorited it, and then moved on without any further scrutiny. In conclusion, don't be lazy. Put some work into your comments. Find some faults with the piece because DUUUUUH no piece of art is perfect and simply awesome. No one will probably see this entry, but this lack of actual critique-ing seriously needs to stop.

By the way, this whole rant was sparked by the fact that I commented on some dude's lame demotivational, noting that it was lame, and was consequently reprimanded for my opinion. Hooray!
