Sorry to bud in,but I had something to add. While it is nice to have some kind of notice from an author who goes dark, keep in mind that this is a free site with free content. The authors on this site write their stories for free, many of them in their spare time between jobs, schooling and other things. They are under no contractual obligation to keep a regular schedule, or for that matter to finish a story at all once it has been started. Nor are we entitled to progress reports should their updating not be fast enough for us. They owe us nothing. They write these stories for us to read out of the kindness of their heart and because they enjoy writing. We are their fans, not their bosses, and have no right whatsoever to demand anything from them.

I know it's frustrating when a story you are particularly fond of hasn't updated in a while, but that is no reason to yell at the author. The only thing for it is to let him know that, whatever he's doing, we miss him and hope for the story to continue.

In the mean time, however, Mr. Cogwork is not the only author here. There are plenty of other pony stories and pony art to occupy our time until he updates again.

In other words, keep calm and brony on.

Believe what you want to believe then WK, but If he just doesn't want to continue then cancel the damn thing, no need for a five month silence.

how about you get that stick out of your ass and realize it is exactly this kind of behavior from people like you that might be the reason why he hasn't made mention as to why there hasn't been much activity.

You do not know what he is doing, there fore you cannot assume he is ignoring his readerbase. grow up and learn some patience, or gtfo.

Also you may want to realize bitching to him, may risk him to want to block you. so if you really want that response, I'd not do anything to warrant a block. otherwise you wont get it and wont be heard at all by him

Stop making up excuses Mr. White Knight, if the guy logs on (10 hours ago), he is just as capable for leaving some kind of message, either here or a quick blog post that barely eats up 30 seconds.  

The fact that we know shit is a testament of how little he cares about his readerbase, its time you realize that, oh, and this is the first time I come here to complain, Mister Self-Righteous Asshole.

...:ajbemused:...

not everyone has the time to remember every tiny obligation online, even ones like what you just complained over. If someone's busy, and he hasn't had much activity for a few months, then obviously something is keeping him, and bitching like that would likely deter them further away from what you want.

You don't know what could be keeping him. Who knows, maybe he's joined the military and has been overseas this whole time. And if he really is overseas, congrats, you just bitched at a soldier for doing his duty instead of giving status updates.

Patience is a virtue, and the internet is vast and wide, I'm sure you can find something better to do than complain about no activity from a good author as Cogwork.

8 months now, 8 months without the simple courtesy of telling us "sorry, RL issues", or "I no longer like writing/MLP", or even just a fucking hello, no jack shit.

Worst of all, your last blog from over 5 months ago had nothing to do with the story, nor with you or your status, just a pointless recommendation for a AU story that you made art for, what a load of bullshit.  

I mean, the guy behind Flight 19: last night he told us why the story would go on an one year hiatus, and as horrible and heart-wrecking as that news was, it was a hell of a lot better that just disappearing without a trace, and even if he never continues it, we the readers will know why, and that gives closure.

Other example: Gravekeeper, the guy behind The Ballad of Twilight Sparkle. He disappeared for over six months, with people sad and confused as to why, until the day the story marked its first anniversary without updates, he just popped up, told us it was just one big clusterfuck of a misunderstanding, and ever since he has made sure that we both know he is still working on the new chapter AND around.

My point? Those guys had the human decency and were responsible enough to give us news, so knowing that you still long in, thanks to the "last seen" feature, why don't you do that? Why don't you just tell us something? Even a simple "fuck off" will do, stop this coward silence.
