I don't think Oleg can make any use of this sort of comments.
Has Oleg ever answered a post which contains only such phrases? No ...

Is Oleg and Team encouraged by such comments? I think all artists are encouraged by such comments. No need to reply to them either. Just appreciate them like a warm glow of sunlight in the morning. Agreed that constructive criticism can be valuable to an artist. But there's a big difference between constructive criticism (which is usually backed up by relevant data) and ill-intended bickering usually by the same actors. So I make no apology for my attempts to compliment and encourage these artists. I personally lack the knowledge and expertise to offer the team any relevant data. But, like many in the silent majority, I can offer them a little encouragement from time to time. I'll keep doing this until Oleg tells me to shut up.
