Does anyone else find it hard answering comments? I put my effort into a hub, then am glad when it's over and done with and can relax.
Then some time later, when the adrenalin, creative flow, whatever has thoroughly disappeared - a comment means revisiting the damm thing. And somehow getting back into the 'character' of that hub in order to come up with a statement that pleases the 'commenter' (because it's nice of them to comment of course), but stays in line with the general tone of the piece.
Maybe it's just me. Probably is. I'm a newbie.
you need more hair on your head to please the commenter.
Hello mark, how are you?
I just respond saying thank you and bla bla bla. When a comment demand a real discussion I try to do that seriously and with equal importance that was offered to write the hub.
That's not hair, it's a badly drawn other hand, most of it fortunately lost when I scanned it in.
I'm fine btw - thanks for asking. Really enjoying hubpages.

In the past, from my profile page, in the hubtivity section, I could click "this comment" to go directly to the comment I previously posted on someone's Hub. Doesn't seem to be working now. Instead, I just get landed at the top of the destination Hub.It's a funny sensation. I keep waiting...

I tried to post this in the answers section-where I think the question should be-but I kept being told the question had already been asked by someone else-not true-and I couldn't post it. This is directed only to hubbers who tend to respond to all comments left on their hub, rather than never...

When someone comments your hub, do you comment back?I have noticed people responding to commenters on their hubs by adding their own comment. I am just trying to get a feel for how common this practice is.
