Something I was thinking, why do some people care so much about favorites?

I see so many artists complain about no one commenting when they fave, sometimes kind of aggressively things like 'don't bother faving unless you comment' and I really wonder what all the fuss is about.

Sure, it's nice to know -why- someone faved something, but I mean, will it really hurt you or your art if they never comment? For example, I'm a rather busy person and yes, I will fave things without commenting, why? Many reasons.
Either I'm too busy to think of a comment at the time, but I would like to make note of the piece either to share with others or maybe to comment on later, or sometimes I just can't think of anything worth saying than 'that's awesome!' or something to that effect, which I feel really isn't worth posting (since so many artists I see complain about -that- too ¬_¬ )

I mean seriously, be reasonable, I say. And sure, some people fave your doodles and sketches, frustrating when you have a piece you spent hours on that barely gets a comment or a fave. Sure it baffles me too but, it happens. I appreciate what I get even if they're one word comments or a fave, for a watch with no comments or faves at all. I mean, look at it this way, you could get nothing at all.

Anywho, it was just on my thoughts, it was something that was bothering me.

In other news, I've been trying to do more traditional pieces, I haven't touched my colored pencils and markers in some time, so I wanted to work with them. Also, I lub pixel art.
