So I'm getting reviews on the newest chapter of NeverEnding and they are mostly from my usual reviewers whose comments are like crack to me (I LOVE YOU GUYS!), but I just got one that pissed me off severely.

It's extremely rude...

the only thing i dislike about your story is that its been longer than a month since you last updated as far as i can ( Read more... )

fanfiction, rant

Yes, how dare you have a life and not update your fic every single month! *eyeroll* Some people...

Your loyal readers don't care how long it takes between chapters. If it's so long that I've forgotten what happened last time, well that just gives me an excuse to go back and re-read. :)

Ignore the stupid who can't spell and is apparently allergic to capital letters. If they're that bothered, they'd wait until the story was complete and read the whole thing at once. Personally, I kind of like having a few WIPs to read, it makes it very exciting when a new chapter appears on my friends page. :D

ETA: and I totally forgot in the review (because LJ was being a pain) - you get internet cookies for the Siler shout-out. :D

*SNORT* I was wondering if you had caught the Siler bit! Was totally thinking of you and wanderingsmith when I wrote it!

And yeah, it's nice to have so many people who are okay with long laspes in updates (though trust me, it frustrates me, both as a writer and a reader)... But it does irk me how inconsiderate some people are to writers.

LOL! Aren't you sweet? :)

It frustrates me too, as a writer, but I'd rather be happy with it and have people wait a bit longer than post something that isn't ready for the world to see yet.

Why thank you, I do aim to please... Mostly cause I've never actually written that S/J/S ficlet that I had planned to... Whoops.

Why pay attention to things like school, family, friends, and other silly nonsensical things when writing fic? You're an awful and terrible person for having a life you know. Just plain awful. Your life is to serve readers every whiny need in hopes of keeping your life-force afloat. UGH.

I'd smack this person upside the head if I could.

You have many loyal and wonderful readers babe. We all know you have your life to attend to outside electronics. And hell, You're a lot nicer than I would've been. Your answer was most civil and diplomatic.

Katie almost lost it when I let her read and trust me, her response was not so polite... Definitely something that sounded a lot like what I usually say! Lol!

Can I join in the smacking? *snort*

*squishes you* YOU MAKE ME SOOO HAPPY! And nonsense, you can be very diplomatic at times; seen you do it!

XD I can imagine Katie's response.

You get all the hits you want sweetie. But if I did see someone saying such a thing to your face, you bet your ass I would walk up to them, smile, and eat their soul with a biscuit.

T-T I miss your hugs and humor. I even miss the way you hit on me sometimes. Usually when I'm watching TV.

*nods* I can be diplomatic until 10 minutes after the last minute. Then the world explodes. *'splode*

Random comment just to cheer you a bit: That warm fuzzy feeling inside me may be love, but I think it's just the mold...Moldy love.

Drives me crazy when readers do stuff like that. It's not like anybody is obliged to write fic...we don't get paid for it!

Your answer was very diplomatic :)

If only we got paid to do this! I sooo wish!

ETA: Ugh, stupid LJ...
Your answer was very diplomatic :)

I just don't understand some people at times! And thank you, I really didn't want to flame them back but I did think they needed some kind of reply back.

--err, yes and I owe you a proper review don't I -tiptoes away to do so-
Lol - this made me smile so much! And don't worry about it, I know I sometimes forget about reviewing as well!

forget about reviewing as well
I've gotten bad the last few months... I leave the tab open all night, then have to close to get to sleep, and then firefox seems to have lost the ability to reload open tabs :(

eheh, glad to make you smile!

chozen_rogue January 17 2010, 04:06:58 UTC
I can definitely understand how firefox not saving tabs would affect the reviewing process! And sleep does happen to get in the way of reading, writing, and reviewing! Damn that need - lol!
