Encouraged commenting culture on this blog

[pseudonym_loving_magpie]

Inspired by pearwaldorf's sticky post, based on the original post here I welcome all of the following types of comments on ANY of my entries:

• Single or two word comments, e.g. , woo!, yay, yes, no, please, thanks, absolutely, agreed, seconded, so much, no way, same, etc.
• tumblr style ❤️, <3, *like* or facebook style 👍
• Otherwise brief comments, e.g. single sentences.
• A comment that is an asterisk to let me know you read, i.e.: *
• A comment that is an emoticon(s) or emoji to express your response, e.g. \o/, <3, :), :(, :-D, :-P, 😀,🤔 etc.
• A comment that is an action in asterisks to express your response, e.g. *laugh*, *thinks*
• Longer comments of several paragraphs. Longer than that is also fine.
• Sequential commentary. It's totally okay to comment about one thing as you read it, then another thing in a separate comment, then a third thing after you've chewed on it for a while and feel ready to talk about it.

I mostly also welcome:

• Comments from people who are not subscribed to me.
• Comments from people who I’ve never met.
• Comments from people who haven’t talked to me in awhile.
• Comments from people who’ve never talked to me.
• Comments on older entries.

I might tag a post "personal" or update this sticky if there's something I want to discuss with people I already know. And I might not want to answer questions on older entries if I'm not as interested in the topic as I used to be. Anyway, that's not necessarily a full list of welcome comments, just some that I thought worth noting.

If you tag me and want to let me know, you can comment with a link to it at my mention notifications post.

If you're reading this and would be interested in using this template to create a similar explanation of the commenting culture at your own journal, please feel more than free to do so. You are welcome to modify as needed.trascendenza who made the original would appreciate a link back to it so anyone else who may want to do the same can find it (it covers more than my initial version of it)
