100 comments all of the recip losing their mind with detailed praise or 100 comments from individual people

I feel like the first one is more impressive, because the recip seems to be having some sort of religious experience, but I would much much much prefer the latter.

All things being equal, I would agree with you. 100 people loving my fic in detail would be great. But if most of the 100 comments are like “this is great!”, “cute!” etc I would be annoyed so I think I lean towards a recip hitting the comment limit 100 times or constantly coming back to reread and finding noew things to love more impressive without further context or guarantees about the individual comment content.

+1 I can't imagine the former unless it is for a crazy long story. If it has 100 chapters and the recip commented on each, then that makes sense. But otherwise, you're talking about a comment that is a factor longer than the fic itself... :/
