I'd always *like* a response if I commented on a post, but I only expect ones when I comment on a fic, even if they're just "Thanks for reading!"
That's not to say I'll stop reading good stories if they authors never acknowledge comments, but I'm certainly less likely to *leave* them if the authors consistently *don't* respond in some way, however minimal.
The whole thing about having comments (for me) is so that people can communicate. If they don't want to talk, they can post with the comments disabled.
