I think the voting button has been used much more often as of late - which is great. I vote for something that is unusual, creative, and touches me even if I dont have the words.
I comment less, because of time constraints I didnt' used to have.. So if I don't leave comments and I used to NO ONE take it personally.. I try to get to people work I like when I get a chance..
I also like to go into archives... and have pbase favorites who are not PADers.. When I DO go to the meta I only click on the ones that strike me, but that doens't mean there aren't some I truly like..
(have I groveled enough? .. no? well hell...)
