Not for everyone

**Warning, if you are against point-whoring, this article is NOT for you**

 

Alright, the 1st time this was done, it was a great success both for other gatherers and for myself. I'm feeling like commenting on people's work. I want you to comment on all of my stuff and I will return the favor. You will get points for all the comments you give to my stuff and points for the comments that I give to yours. Essentially, for those who comment on at least 10 of my articles and pictures, I will comment on your stuff as well. Good luck to all of you and your endeavors.

Heather W. Oct 20, 2007, 2:13pm EDT
Will this make me a point whore? I've been called a whore before, so it's okay I guess.
Digital Diva S. Oct 20, 2007, 2:16pm EDT

Dan,
Please don't try to comment on all my articles. I have a zillion of them, lol, you could be at it night and day!
Jo C. Oct 20, 2007, 2:43pm EDT
Of course, if you are trying to diet....I guess you could spend time clicking on my articles and not eating...that's it, the Gather diet! I better write a book right now.

I have had eight funerals in then weeks, so I am about two weeks behind.
Donald M. Oct 20, 2007, 4:46pm EDT
I try to return comment for comment, but it will take me weeks to get caught up. So please be patient and I will get around to answering all comments.
Donald M. Oct 20, 2007, 4:47pm EDT
I have just gotten back from the tenth, so this is the best I can do today. I have three hundred others waiting for me to return what they have said.
Teresa W. Oct 20, 2007, 5:00pm EDT
I try to comment on everybody's stuff. It is hard!! I know I end up missing stuff which I'm always sorry about but I try! Do we get points for trying really hard, do you think?
Dan H. Oct 20, 2007, 5:41pm EDT
so far I've commented on the stuff of everyone who has written back to this.
Julia *loves my baby girl chloe* M. Oct 20, 2007, 5:43pm EDT

*Carol ~Bronx Southern Belle D. Oct 20, 2007, 8:26pm EDT
It's fine with me, but you're gonna get spanked by the self appointed guardians of Gather. You're a 10 by me.

Point Whore: about the only time I don't mind being called a whore...
The Red Headed Witch of Gather G. Oct 20, 2007, 10:01pm EDT
I'm a point whore and I'm proud to admit that. However, people should be happy I am a point whore as I have commited to a friend that I will donate my gift cards to help her get her home in better shape :) So I point whore for a good cause.

Anyways, here are some points for you!
Reme B. Oct 20, 2007, 10:02pm EDT
intriguing :D
Michael L. Oct 20, 2007, 10:15pm EDT
Great idea. I try to comment on as many things as I can...Just not enough hours in the day, and pesky sleep gets in the way sometimes. But here's a comment for you!
Marianne R. Oct 20, 2007, 10:50pm EDT
I'm always game. Only time it gets tough is playing catch up on 6 pages of photos and 5 pages of articles when I am gone all day.
Marianne R. Oct 20, 2007, 10:50pm EDT
Which is essentially what I am doing now for my connections.
Marianne R. Oct 20, 2007, 10:51pm EDT
So here's a bit to get you started :)
Jennifer W. Oct 20, 2007, 10:54pm EDT
can we say points? lol
Erica M. Oct 20, 2007, 11:01pm EDT
Thats how we roll.
Jessica I. Oct 20, 2007, 11:02pm EDT
great idea
James T. Oct 20, 2007, 11:09pm EDT
Points would be nice if they don't change Gather ...did you see the vote for points or no points on the Home page? They are taking a poll asking if you would stay on Gather if there were no points...
:O)
Betty DeRamus Oct 20, 2007, 11:12pm EDT
I am trying to get points myself...I would appreciate and return the favor....Help me by helping yourself.
hmmmmmmmdont think you have a point problem here!but of course I will continue on your site as I do
Timothy V. Oct 21, 2007, 1:08am EDT
I can't believe that people are actually commenting on this garbage.
Emma L. Oct 21, 2007, 2:47am EDT
I'll check your stuff out! Points are a good thing...
Lisa Frost Oct 21, 2007, 8:46am EDT
Wow, that is a lot of comments! cool idea and a great job!

Nick H. Dec 13, 2007, 4:11pm EST
works for me.
Kimber L. Dec 14, 2007, 1:41pm EST
ok, I am doing that now anyways!

I am commenting on all of your articles and photos as you have asked us to do in the mass email sent out! Not all my comments will be personalized as there are 20 pages of articles to read through and even more than that on photos and I would rather spend the time reading and looking and enjoying then writing! Btw I saw you were listed as having 20 pages of articles but it will only let me see 19 of them so I will Comment on everything it lets me see!
Dan H. Aug 8, 2008, 11:20am EDT
