Yeah, I do not think that it is the same to receive a short comment from a person you know and that whom you do not know. Some people I know for almost a year now and with just a few words they can get their message across or show encouragement and support. I do not ignore them. On the other hand, if a stranger leaves me that kind of message yeah, I would probably ignore it. There is also the thing with commenting the photos and short poems. Sometimes I get lost for words and all I can say are praises :)
