Flickr is a weird place.... - a photo on Flickriver

            I noticed a significant amount of my flickr contacts had removed me as a friend and I decided to pick two at random and ask them why, they both gave the same response "you hardly ever comment on my photos"

I had no idea so many people added contacts purely for mutual arse licking, I comment when I like a photo but that doesn't mean I only like the photos I comment, I don't have enough time to comment on every single photo I like and even if I did it doesn't necessary mean I would have anything worthwhile to say, sometimes I just like a photo without having anything to contribute verbally.

Perhaps a "like" button similar to facebook would be a good idea? then we could let someone know we liked their photo without having to comment or add it to our favourites.

Anyway, I found the responses quite distasteful, I like plenty of photos on here without commenting on them and I'm sure people enjoy a few seconds looking at mine without feeling the need to necessarily say something. 

You won't be missed!
