I had been reading posts last week with reference to peoples frustrations with poor site comments. Because of this information I decided to hold off for a week before I requested any for my recent posts.
So at 15:12 today I submitted a request for feedback on a 2,500-word post that also has 1 video at 12 minutes in length and one at 11 minutes.
I kid you not, within 4 minutes of requesting the feedback I had 3 comments and the 4th comment within 6 minutes.
How long would it take to read my post - 5 minutes maybe? Even if you browsed the videos perhaps 8 minutes plus a good 5 minutes perhaps to feedback with good relevant comments.
So 15 minutes, and I'm being generous.
So how the hell within 3 minutes can I have 1 comment that says my post was really informative and the videos offered fantastic information for beginners.
WTF???
One comment isn't even about the bloody topic and another one says my article is a godsend and then has the audacity to copy part of my post and paste it back to me in the comments section.
Not one of the people who commented are Premium members (which I have no issue with) so I think the main issue here is that the training is asking people to leave comments at the end of one of the phases.
To me this is saying to people they need to leave comments to continue the training, so they are.
The problem is they either don't have the experience to leave a decent comment or they are just getting another part of the training out of the way.
I now understand peoples frustrations.
