Do they all really listen?

If someone comments, 
 
"Good job", And then, "Way to go", And then, "I liked it", And then, "It blew me away" Etc...
 
On multiple songs, I'm not saying? I'm just asking... "Is it possible that they didn't really listen? But rather merely pasted in some canned responses? In an effort on many different threads to make it look as though they were contributing?"
 
It's a hypothetical? I'm Not implicating anyone, merely posing a Christmas question? Merry Christmas everyone!! Really, I care about you all, I like you, way to go, good job, etc.. and all that other Holiday stuff. And if you read or respond to this thought?
 
WAY TO GO! REALLY LIKED YOUR RESPONSE! YOU ROCK ON! THAT WAS NICE OF YOU TO SAY! GOOD JOB! YOUR RESPONSE KICKED BUTT, AND YOU'RE THE BEST!!! (in advance...)
-------------------
People I really enjoy who I've commented on repeatedly may get something similar..
 
It's also nice to get something specific on the song, the writing, and or the mix? Merry Christmas.
 
And from left field once again, God bless us all, "every one." (Tiny Tim was a suck up...)

Get it? It's actually easy to do... You merely comment with a canned response? Or maybe you comment off of the title? So if the title is "something Christmas? blah blah?" You say wow, what a great Christmas song (without listening) Or if the title is "Something Jesus Something" You answer "what a moving spiritual song..." You don't actually have t listen? :-) You can simply play the audience? I don't do this, I'm merely pointing out that it can be done. 

what are you up to Robby..?  

Sorry, farther below.

I'm sure some don't listen, but many do? And for those who do not, and for those who do? It's still a Merry Christmas to all... 
 
But better to listen if you comment? That was the point of the OP. Nothing offensive intended on Christmas Eve. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. My son got everything he wanted and more...
 
I hope everyone gets everything they need!
 
I got what I needed? Ho ho ho! (give it your best shot, every time :-)

It allows for precision? Like with Sonar/Cakewalk. Precision is a good thing, when tracking/editing, and or in other situations. It's always best to be precise?

I'm not sure I really care that much.
 
If someone says 'good job' they might mean just that; perhaps the music isn't to their taste, perhaps they don't feel willing or able to add anything further, but they appreciate the effort. I've done it myself. I think I'd rather they did that actually, than force themselves to dissect the mix or arrangement just because they feel it's the 'done thing'
 
I have a hard time commenting in a meaningful way on certain types of music, but it's still nice to let people know you listened.
 
 

Another thing, is be honest, but also considerate. I also think if your not into a certain genre, let people know so they can decide if that genre is what they want to be posting in here. Also, a lot of people use loop and samples to create something that sounds good to them and share, so be considerate that not everyone is instrumentally inclined, but can mix things together that sound pretty good. Others mix loops and samples and also play an instrument or two along with it and so on. Basically, we are here to learn first (from the more experienced) and also to have fun and share what we have created and enjoy one another's comment sharing and communications. Most of all, do it all with love for one another. Merry Christmas to all in the forum. 
 
Nice little recoil setup there Robbie!!
 
Peace and Blessings, John

I have to admit, I've wondered about that before. I would like to think people listen before they comment. Although, I did see 3 or 4 in a row that a particular person commented on, and the person's posts were 2 minutes apart for all the posts. Hmmm... But you know, if people aren't going to listen, I would rather they say "good job" than "that sucked". I do think an overwhelming majority actually listen, though. Merry Christmas everybody!!! My wife's gonna let me unwrap my BFD3 tomorrow! Woohoo!!!!!

Personally I listen to a most of what is posted here some I comment on others I feel this way "Sorry I just can not think of anything to say that would be in anyway useful or meaningful."  
 
I might also add "The means I liked that, it made my ears smile, it made me sit up and listen, I enjoyed it, thanks you.
 
with some I want to add "If that upsets you well……."

I know for me, sometimes I give a response that sounds canned because so many people have already echoed my thoughts, but I still want to let the person know I listened and enjoyed.  I'm guessing most of the people who comment actually listened because it just seems illogical to go through the bother of commenting to a stranger when there i nothing to be gained.  It's not like this is a forum that requires one to post feedback.  One can literally pop in at any time, listen and not say a word.
 
I think mood also dictates how detailed the response is.  Some of the songs here i have enjoyed most i have left the least commentary because I was tired or just simply not in the mood to write.  i think James nailed it.  A lot of people will listen to something that is not their cup of tea but want to acknowledge the person who made it because they understand how it is to put something out there and not get response.

If I make a comment, I've listened. Many times, someone already responded with suggestions for improvements that I don't need to duplicate, unless I feel strongly about a point. Other times, I'll be frist...
 
In any event, most of us do this for enjoyment and love for music...don't sweat it Robby...it'll make you crazy, lol!

This is a funny post but there probably is some truth in it. I guess people do it sometimes out of politeness (not wanting to offend),sometimes out of laziness (probably didnt get past the first minute) and maybe sometimes they just really dig what they're hearing ?!!!! I had a whinge about this to one of my mates not long ago and he said to me 'Kev ,your music is sh * t'
I stopped whinging about it after that !!!!
Happy New Year !!!!! 

It's interesting to see people's thoughts and comments. There are so many excellent musicians here? And other's with excellent ears? I truly value (TRULY!) everyone's input. Different people have different perspectives and you will never hear your music as others do?
 
This is why it is so important to have people give you "honest" "critiques" because without that? You live in an echo chamber of people saying "good job!" We all need people to say, "excuse me? you ****ed up?" I am hear to say that, and I hope others are as well? I try to do so politely... There's no need to be rude.
 
But I also tell people when they ROCK!! Hard... Which most do? The majority who post here rock HARD! When I can offer a constructive critique? I try to do so, in a way that is "constructive" The stones said, "we all need, someone we can bleed on? And if  you want it baby, you can bleed on me..."
 
Oh and, BTW? YOU'RE ALL POSERS! YOU WISH YOU COULD BE THIS GOOD (points at self) 
 
Well "some of you" are worthy? You know who you are...
 
:-) LOL!

I listen to every song to which I comment from start to finish. Occasionally, some songs are so bad, I don't make it to the end. However, I do make an effort to comment on something good and something that needs improved upon for each review. The unsolicited praise that a lot of people give here is actually counter productive. When people post total crap, they end up thinking it's good and never improve if all the hear is "good job". If a song stinks, it stinks, but they should at least know why and suggestions to improve.
