I had to edit out a lot of what I wanted to say in that last post because it went over the 2000 word limit. Basically, I was talking about livestreams on YouTube and what I had experienced leaving comments on them. 
          	
          	Its something I've been thinking about for a while and I'm not criticizing any particular channel. 
          	
          	The post before this one ended with me talking about a channel that even mentioned my name and referred to my comments in several videos. But now I get not even a like on my comments from that channel. 
          	
          	That channel started to auction the books on it on a well known site. I thought: Oh fantastic! I can actually have this person's books and they are signed! I was and am a fan of that channel. But that auction did dampen my enthusiasm for it.  When I went to buy some of the books, the bidding on them was already up to hundreds and in a few examples-thousands of dollars. That took the books out of my reach. I could have bought the same books in better condition from other sellers for 5 or 7 dollars. At the most-I might have paid 30 dollars for some of them. But mostly I would have been paying under 10 dollars. I thought it was like a bidding war and the outrageous prices was a little bit like maintaining a gate to exclude others or something. 
          	
          	None of that other post was about the channel I was talking about above. That other post and this post is about just show appreciation to the people that comment on your livestreams by trying to read their comments and show them appreciation by at least clicking like on their comments on your social media pages and videos.

I'm going to give a tip on how to conduct something like a livestream on YouTube. 
          
          This doesn't come from my actual experience of holding my own livestream. This is just something from me the poster on livestreams. 
          
          Of course-run your livestreams and social media profiles how you see fit. But being attentive to as many posters on your page as possible can do a lot for your pages. 
          
          My only suggestion is: try to read all the comments during your livestreams or as many as you possibly can. Read them out loud during your livestream and try to give the comments a few seconds or a few minutes of a reply. It always makes me feel good when the YouTube channel reads and replies to my comments during their livestreams and I bet I'm not the only one that likes to be noticed by the people having the livestream. 
          
          I don't know how the livestreams are set up or what goes on behind the scenes. Its possible a moderator is highlighting comments for the person to see during the livestream and sort of filtering out other comments. I really don't know how that works. But I've seen the people on the livestream read a comment both above and below mine, but completely ignore mine. I also wonder if they don't have  people planted in the comment section so it appears they have a lot of people watching. 
          
          I've started thinking the people on the YouTube channels reply to us for a limited time to see if we're send them money. Then after x amount of time has passed, and we haven't joined as a channel member (which costs) or donated to their fund, they stop reading our comments during livestreams or even liking our comments on their videos. 
          
          There was a channel on YouTube where the person actually mentioned my name in several videos and referred to comments I left in the comment section. That made me feel good. Now my comments don't even get a like from that channel. 
          
          I had to edit a lot out of this post because it went over the limit. Just be nice to your followers. It will get you far.

I get notifications that profiles that have been following me for a while are my new followers. They didn't unfollow me & start following me back either
          
          For example, I get a new notification that says Glade is my new follower, but Glade has been my follower for a year. Glade is just a name I picked out of thin air  for the example and does not correspond to any profile I currently know on Wattpad.

I’ve had that happen, too. : (

Hi, Carnation! I'm new here, wandered into your profile & I love how attentive & supportive you are to everyone - I haven't yet seen anyone else letting their community know they'll be connected until their computer battery dies!  ❤️ 
          
          Anyway, I know you're booked up at the moment, but if you have a chance sometime to check out my story The Assassin of Time, it would mean lots to me as I get started here!
          
          Meanwhile I will await your own stories... will we get to see some of your paintings too? (No pressure but as someone with zero artistic skills, I'm always delighted to enjoy the artistic talents of others!)

@cemeterycarnation78  The art channel sounds interesting! Share a link sometime when it's ready for wider exposure to the world. :)

@RedPetal49 Thanks for following me. I clicked to follow you back. Sorry it took so long to reply. I've been out of town & didn't get a chance to check Wattpad until now. 
            
            Lol, about my computer 's battery. I'm very happy to support everyone's story. I'll look at you story The Assassin of Time. I'll post some of my paintings too when they are done. Actually, I started a art channel called Artist Witch. But its a work in a progress and only has 2 videos posted at this time. I plan to post videos on it of me doing art from vintage instruction books, sketchbook tours and art book hauls.
