I leave a comment if a story really struck me somehow, or I have more to say beyond a basic "this was a fic, yay for fic" sort of enjoyment. I scatter kudos like dandelions in spring, but I often can't formulate a comment.

And a secondary reason that I don't see a lot of people making, so maybe it's just me. I don't want to start a dialogue. I don't want to "make friends" or whatever. I want to tell an author "I liked this" and yay, that's it. Like applauding the actors at the end of the play, great job, thanks for the work, now where did I park, who wants to get dinner? Maybe, maybe if I find myself going through an author's entire backlist and I put them on alert and their stuff is just that awesome to me, maybe then I'll be interested in waiting at the stage door to say hello in person.

If it weren't for the kudos button, I'd leave less than a quarter of the feedback I do right now, because I'm not dropping a "nice fic" comment. The kudos let me give the feedback without forcing me to risk unknown interaction.
