Being fairly new here I am so happy to come across new people with this attitude, and sharing it. Seems obvious to me, this is where the real value and longevity for everyone, in community. I am growing this organically and have also noticed I get more from comments than posts and thats cool. I like replying on content that interest me and I do find those obvious "please up vote me" comments so ridiculous! The more sharing of your attitude, the better!
