Don't know if this counts but in Violet Vineyard reciprocating was big in regards to reblogs, but most people just reblogged Mina, the mods, and a few larger blog's work. If you were a smaller blog, you didn't get much attention. Someone complained about people only reblogging work from their friends, but that comment was dismissed by the mods. You had to reblog stuff in to promote your work, which sounds great in theory, but if only the same handful of blogs get attention, how is it fair?
Yeah! That's what I never got either! Sure, in theory, it sounds great but way more people got ignored in favor of the Clique or more popular blogs. I noticed smaller blogs would share her work but she wouldn't do the same. At least make an effort?
It's awful. Art communities like writeblr rely on people sharing others' works to stay alive but yet. It happened maybe 20% of the time.
