I'm just an unpopular deviant and it's not really easy to gain watchers so I'm really, really grateful for every watches I received and that what matters to me. I don't mind anymore if they turned out to be a "ghost watcher". I cannot force my own watchers to always leave comments and fave my works if they don't like it. Just the fact that they remain my watchers, that's enough for me, and I truly value them! If they become my active watchers, that's a bonus!
Sad to say, I'm probably one of the "ghost watchers" too that scattered here on DA because I cannot maintain to be somebody's active watcher. I'm just an active user and I still have my personal life outside DA and I don't have my own computer so I cannot go online everyday like others who seem to be online here 24/7. With my limited time, I always try my best to reply, but most of all, I always browse new works and trying to learn something new from the net.
If it appears that "I don't care" about having ghost watchers, it's because I understand them and I try to put myself in their place instead. If I have a life outside, probably they are too!
...I'm a bit of a ghost watcher, and I just wanted to thank you for making this stamp and writing about what it means. I tend to comment on journals, but I rarely comment on pictures because I often feel like I have nothing to add. When I DO, however, I tend to write really long critiques. I'm busy in real life, too, and while I make the time to click through my deviant watch and reply to conversations, I just don't have time to sit there and think of something to say on every deviation.
The story of me.
So thanks for making this.
Let's be ghost watchers altogether!
