Weaken the comment buffer

It is very hard to reply to messages when you got a system that thinks you're spamming after you reply to the 25th message out of 1,000. It has forced me to forgo replying to some people at all and I do not like ignoring people.

I cannot thank people for all the faves when I got something that stops me dead in my tracks before I have barely made any progress. While I understand the need for a comment buffer I think the current one is just too strong.

I'll add my "Stop C&P thanking every fav" vote to this. Do you really put your heart into those thanks after the 25th one in a row?

Empty copy paste thanks are just that. Empty spams on people's pages. It's unnecessary.

When you fav someone's work a message shows up saying Thanks. There is no need to do it for the sake of spamming.

My suggestion. Tone it down.

I don't give a shit about a thank you, it just makes me think that person is there for the views.

I don't think anyone's going to hold it against you if you don't leave a copy-pasta message on their page every time they fav a piece of your work. If you absolutely must thank every single person who favs something from your gallery, just do it in chunks rather than all at once. You don't have to thank 1,000 people all in one go. Post a few thank yous, then go and do something else for a bit. Or maybe reconsider the necessity for thanking everyone...maybe the spam filter is trying to tell you something ;)

Don't thank for faves. it's not interacting. it's basically the same message, over and over again.

As far as commenting on faves, I only thank for faves if the same person faved several things. Maybe if you limit how many things you replied on?

I was under the impression the warning only comes up when you're basically copypasting the same message over and over again.

At least it didn't happen again :) the one at the top who accused me of spamming never even bothered to look at my current activity log.
