I don't like disabled comments either. I really enjoy commenting on people's artwork telling how I like their art. But it makes me wonder why they post their art but don't want any comments at all. Comments are very important for DeviantArt since a lot of artists want actual feedback instead of favorites and llamas so they want to know what people find interesting about their artwork.

Yeah, but I also think it's because of trolls and cyberbullies saying hurtful comments on their art which is why they disable comments. But I also get bothered by the block system that DeviantArt has. People have blocked me for no reason even if I follow the rules and try to be respectful. Besides, the only people I block are art thieves, trolls, cybercriminals, scammers, and pedophiles.

I only disable comments if things get REALLY out of handΒ

if someone s bullying. harassing you try blocking them, it has a purpose you know

Also this stamp isn't about blocking/hiding individual comments but rather how people have the option to disable the entire comment section on the artwork they submit. This means no one would be able to comment whether they were planning on being mean, nice, or whatever.

If a specific individual is continually harassing you, you should also be reporting them.

I really don't like it when someone posts something extremely ignorant or wrong about a delicate issue, and disables comments so that no-one can correct them of their ignorance.Β

This is relevant:

Though the fact you cannot correct them does make it worse.

Lol!Β Thanks for sharing that webcomic!
Yeah.

If they didn't want comments, why bother posting? That's like making a song, and not wanting people to listen to it.
π: 0 β©: 2
That's correct.

That analogy doesn't make complete sense but I agree with your comment otherwise.

I insist you disable the comments on this (lol)
π: 0 β©: 2
Isnt that right.
besides, it stops someone from commenting on an art piece they love..
π: 0 β©: 1
Exactly. It is throwing out the baby (good comments) with the bath water (unwanted comments).

Yeah the best thing to do is just to hide the comments that you don't like, which is what i do.

I do have one thing that has disabled comments, because the topic (Mario eating Luigi) Is basically a MAGNET for butthurt Luigi fantards that cannot handle their pwecious lord and savior as prey.

Well what did you expect would happen? Lol.

This annoys me to no end because disabling comments should only happen if spam gets out of control nothing more, it should not be used as a weeboo shield.

Exactly! Β Why post anything if you're not going to allow people to comment?
π: 0 β©: 1
I never disable comments because comments are my way of knowing that other people are looking at my art and i'm not just talking to myself..
Seriously i love getting comments even if it just says "I hate you for no valid reason!" I still need to here opinion, Without having opinion i am nothing!
I Also hate going down to a comment section trying to find an opinion i can relate to or to see other people's opinion on something and then all of the sudden the comments are disabled.
Simply put.. I. HATE. DISABLED. COMMENTS.

I'm fine with it on art, some people don't feel comfortable getting criticism(or people give very negative criticism, if it could even be called that, about their art, I've seen it happen a bit), but on controversial stamps, it pisses me off. Why make a controversial stamp about something then disable the comments? That seems a bit cowardly IMO. I mean, if it's an old stamp, sure. After awhile every new comment is just something said in the past, but a stamp that is newer? It's pointless to bring up a controversial topic and disable comments.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well for art you could just ask commenters to not give criticism. I think most people would be willing to cooperate. As for controversial stamps, I agree! People have the freedom to express their opinions but any resulting consequences or feedback are another issue.

The Disabled Comment systems are on
both youtube & deviantART who came up with this
were not even allowed say are toughts & opinions
on Certain things on the Internet.

The ONLY website in which I am okay with disabling comments is YouTube because that website is so brain-dead it's not even funny.
If you outright disable comments on your stamps on deviantART, there's a 99% chance I will not take you seriously.

I don't comment very much on YouTube though I still notice when a video has comments disabled.
π: 0 β©: 1
A lot of people on YouTube are just... lol. It's like watching them beat their chests like gorillas.

Comments Disabled needs to become disabled.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! It would be funny to see people's reaction if you could not disable comments.

I'm not obligated to engage in a debate or listen to someone else's crap every timeΒ I want to express an opinion, and I'm sick of people thinking I should.Β Your freedom of speech ends at my doorstep, which on this website is my comment section.
π: 0 β©: 1
The choice of disabling comments is very well left to the author and I am not saying you shouldn't have the choice. However, having only one-way communication just seems a little unfair to the audience.

Fellmekke blocked me quite immediately. Am I a spammer? I wrote youΒ ONE comment, you replied with another stupid reply an then blocked me? Then why did you reply if you don't want anything to be said? I guess blocking me improved your social status? I'd fucking ruin your shit face if you were in front of me. No matter if you couldn't compete by far. Grow the fuck up.
Β
Sorry for using this to reply to someone else,Β the discussion is over already.

I just saw your recent journal entry...you really needed to vent huh?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's not venting, it's a thought.
Β
Is it normal that every time you open this "art" site you don't even find art because it's outnumbered by shit?
Β
If it's normal, then this isn't an art site. Just noticing because I don't think it was always like that.
π: 0 β©: 1
I suppose it depends on how you define art or what kind of artwork you are expecting in the first place. Furthermore keep in mind deviantART has been around for more than a decade, I bet a lot has changed in that time (not just the site itself but society in general and the site's visitors).
