Interesting poll. I like seeing what other people think. Some of the questions don't apply to me (I don't use a beta), but I never stop and think--this isn't a test, I don't have to check every box lol. School mentality, I guess.

Comments don't really matter much to me. They are nice to get, but I post almost exclusively in my journal or directly to whomever the story was written for, so I don't worry when I don't get a lot of feedback. I'm also an obsessive tinkerer, so probably three quarters of what I write never gets posted at all. Even if I do post a story, I sometimes go back a week or a month later and 'fix' it, because nothing is ever finished with me lol.

I do like reading comments for other authors, esp. my favorites. I like seeing what others get out of a story and comparing it to what I enjoyed.

I definitely love reading comments to my fave authors. I especially do it for my "fringe" fandoms--the ones I am less sure about writing in, so that I know what people in the fandom like, what they respond to, etc. I write what makes me happy, but I also like to write what makes other people happy, so it's a good way to know, I've found. Plus, I like hearing people say nice things about people I like! :D

I've been having serious comma tinkering urges lately. I keep reading older stuff and seeing what a balls-up I made of comma usage. Especially on stuff i wrote before my intensive grammar class. I often don't hit edit, though I should. :D
