[Problem Solving] How should we handle "vague/unsettling" comments?

Good evening, everyone.
Thank you for coming today as well.

This time, I wrote an article that will serve as a "vague/unsettling" resolution for those who have felt "unsettled" when sending or receiving comments.

Common refreshing comments / unsettling comments

It is very delightful when someone grasps your intent and comments on the writing you created by dedicating your time and effort. Also, comments that provide
insights you hadn't thought of yourself. The moment you feel that "they read the article carefully" or "they really understand it,"

a "refreshing feeling" arrives.

In contrast to that, comments that include things better left unsaid, off-target comments, comments that unilaterally say only what they want to say, one-upmanship, selfishness, slander, advertisements, illegal content, ethical deviations... are, needless to say, "unsettling."

The moment you feel that "they didn't read the article," "there is no consideration or thoughtfulness," or "(even though they don't understand) they said something as if they did," an "unsettling feeling" arrives.


"Refreshing / Unsettling" are actually a fine line

I wonder if you have ever had the experience where you felt unsettled the moment it was written, but after reading it carefully (or re-reading it later), you realized "what you really wanted to convey" and certified it as a refreshing comment.

This area is what has kept the "vague/unsettling comment problem" complicated for a long time.

Even if it's just a single word spoken casually by the person, "spirit of words" (kotodama) resides in it, after all.

But, there was actually a way to solve that.


Harmless comments are powerful

Everyone, have you ever thought about this?

If you break comments down into 5 levels, it looks something like this.

Refreshing comment      ★★★★★
Harmless comment      ★★★★☆
No comment         ★★★☆☆
Subtle comment (unsettling) ★★☆☆☆
Worst comment (unsettling) ★☆☆☆☆

See? "Harmless" is powerful, isn't it? If you know about it, you should be using it as a standard form. However, if you don't know, it makes a big difference.

If you increase your repertoire of "harmless comments," you can aim for the top tier among note commentators (I just made that up!).

Everyone, let's keep working hard together.


The issue on the side receiving the comments

On the other hand, it's not that the "comments themselves" are bad, but there also seems to be room for improvement on the side receiving the comments.

・Creating a flow that makes it easy to comment
Placing text like "I'm looking forward to your thoughts on..."

・Replying properly
If you provide good replies, the way people express their comments will change

・Taking a little time and trying to receive them calmly
Training to find "refreshing" points from "vague/annoying" comments

I myself had a period where I couldn't reply to comments.
Even so, little by little, I became able to discover the "refreshing" points hidden in comments, and the joy is expanding rapidly.

One of the reasons I continue writing on "note" is probably, for sure, this journey of searching for "refreshing" points.


Answer: Just when you think "I can't comment"

I often hear these words of salvation as well.

"No one is watching you as much as you worry they are"

If you think too much about being watched, you will shrink and become unable to act.

The idea that even a brush of sleeves is a karmic connection is too exaggerated; we are surprisingly, shockingly uninterested in others.

Actually, right now, I'm preparing this article while eating an Azuki Bar ice cream in my room, and no one is watching me, and no one is looking.

Even if you think you made a huge mistake in a comment, no one other than you is really thinking anything, and rather, it is ultimately decided by your own circumstances, whether it's good or bad, vague or refreshing. That was human psychology, wasn't it?

Keeping the premise that "they are just others after all" and therefore "we cannot fully understand each other at once" can be a key to overcoming deep-seated worries, though sometimes it isn't.

✅Summary

"Harmless" Increase your repertoire of advantageous comments
Training to find "refreshing" points from comments
Don't worry too much



🌹You have added this to your magazine

Urara Kamikita"Internet Neighborhood Observation Journal"

"Giving a 'name' to things you don't understand, keeping your distance, and finding peace of mind" The concept resonates with me. You expressed the act of so-called "structuring" or "conceptualizing" by giving it a name and calling it "yokaification", and I was struck by the humor in that. Thank you for adding it to your magazine.

That is all for today. Thank you for reading.
Your support, equivalent to the price of a cup of coffee, helps me keep going next time☕

Next time, I think I will consider the mechanics of "title length." I hope it helps with your article creation.

See you then.
