rude
Hi everyone,
I felt obligated to write this message to everyone instead of replying to every single message I get regarding why my stories arent available anymore. The reason is simple: people's rudeness.
I dont really mind you all asking me for updates. I am not one of these people getting mad over a short message with simple 'update soon' like other authors here. If this is how you express your eagarness to read more, then I am really fine with it. But telling me to "ing update faster cuz I am waiting so long already" is another thing.
I know I update rather rarely, be it because of my personal problems or pure laziness, and I am sorry if you have to wait. But people, I didnt force you to read my stories. I also dont get paid for this. I have to work everyday to earn money and writing is just another thing I do in my spare time. It is not my fault you have more time to scroll through AFF than I do.
But even if I do not update, it doesnt give you right to be rude towards me or another person. I am seriously fed up with that angry and demanding posture people have on Internet. You dont even bother to spend 5 minutes to write why you like my story in the first place but demand a chapter which takes me more than 3 days to write since I am not a native speaker. That is not going to make me run to my computer and write, not to mention the ill mannered attitude.
And it is not only readers crossing the line novadays. Authors telling readers to shut up and wait arent any better. Cant we just use a proper way to communicate without this unnecessary insults and ill tone? Is it that hard to express yourself and say properly why you dont like something or want it? For God's sake, the person on the other side is a human and has feelings. Just realize how upsetting your message can be before you send it...
I hid my stories because I got a message telling me to finally move my and start updating cuz 'how long can you wait', right? Well, it surely didnt convince me so I thought giving that person a cold shower could help. The stories will be available once again starting from friday. But if I will have to come across this kind of disrespect towards me as a person, human being, again then I will take them down for good.
Peace people
