I... I feel quite pushed away now I can't see if people are liking my contributions. I feel as if maybe people aren't liking my comments, and I can't tell so I can't adapt. I post comments similar to those I know users like, in the hope that I provide value to others, without knowing how well a comment is being received how do I provide what users want?
I would like to see point display re-enabled for the owner of the comment.
Edit: hey looks like this happened, thanks pg :-)
- random42 16y ago> I would like to see point display re-enabled for the owner of the comment. I second that. Now, that up-votes are not visible, I have to write it out. Something that makes me wonder, Will this change increase the "me-too" comments count to show agreement, which in-turn would increase the noise in comments even more?
- MichaelApproved 16y agoI think the point is not to write for what users want. You should write based on what your personal opinions are. That way we get more new and interesting opinions.
- jarek 16y agoI'm not sure I care to spend half an hour writing out a new and interesting opinion if no one ends up reading it. With no points visible, obvious feedback of people actually reading it is limited to reply comments.

On the one hand it's nice to see feedback so that you know to adapt to the social norms of the site. On the other hand, I think it's great to not care so much about what others think and just focus on making your comments accurate, informative, helpful, kind and enlightened.
