That's what most of my proofreading is, fixing commas that I put in out of place, commas that I put in for no reason, and of course, putting commas in where I mystically didn't put them in before.

ME.
I use so many commas sometimes. I really don't need them, but they feel right sometimes and so I pop them in there.
YES. I put them in whenever they feel right. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. And most of the time they're not right. I leave in a few that I like, sometimes, even if they aren't right.

Same here. Especially if I'm just writing for my own pleasure and not for someone else. 'Well that comma probably shouldn't go here but it looks good to me so I'm keeping it.'
Mhm. Every time I try to write there are so many commas everywhere! It's crazy! I feel like when I write a certain thing that there should be some pauses so it can flow right and it still doesn't sound right half the time.

My sarcasm is fraught with commas I tell you!

I didn't used to, but now more often than not I find myself using them too much. It makes me feel, like, I'm typing, like, William Shatner. xD

I tend to leave out commas though I am technically supposed to be using them.
I tend to ramble too much. :c
I used to put commas at the end of every line of poetry unless there was a period there. Looking back at it I'm like, okay, so that worked accurately quite frequently... But there were definitely some places younger me put commas where they didn't belong.
I either add too many commas or not enough. I am trying to get better about it, but it's hard to remember the comma rules when I am writing. I try to go back and check my grammar after I've finished with a section of a story, fixing mistakes and making little changes to remove correct but excessive commas.
I'm really big on using commas in dialogue since I like to indicate pauses, but I have a feeling that I'm not using them properly. And I actually had two teachers discuss my comma-usage in a short story and they both said something along the lines of 'well it's not right but it's stylistic' so that's always left me a little baffled.
I don't get comma happy that much, but my mom sure does! The first book of hers I edited had so many commas that by the time she was done her second one, she decided not to put ANY and just let me put them in. xD
I do. I also abuse the hell out of the ... I'm terrible with both. Honestly grammar as a whole was never really my strong suit. I get the gist but when it comes to commas and semi colons and the like I'm just absolutely stupid. Kinda why I'd happily pay someone way more than it's worth to fix my grammar issues if I ever wrote a book.
I used to be really comma happy but I've gotten over it for the most part.
I have to give a big round of applauds to Edmunds (one of the English professors I had in college and also was VERY strict about grammar/spelling rules) for helping to start to break me of the comma crazy habitXD
You wanna comma over here and say that to my face? XP
No I totally get comma happy and I always have to go back and take out at least half of them. =x=
I definitely get comma happy when I first write something. But, it's the best way to convey a pause. So if it's not quite right grammatically, I'll live XD
Ugh, yes!
I've been trying to be more conscious of it, but for some reason my brain seems hard wired to just toss them in whenever it feels like it. It's a lot easier (and less annoying) to just go back and fix it later. @
All the time! I tend to over use commas in about everything I do, it's become such an awful habit of mine.

Art by i either write with no punctuation worth a damn or I use way, too, much.
roleplaying an overly wordy, mostly formal character, who has a tendency to like playing vague wordy mind games, sorta adds more than necessary commas to my writing lol. especially if you write long sentences and just keep adding commas and forget what a period is some times because i almost did that in this comment too >_>
