It's forming a new positive connection in your brain which once had a negitive or neutral reaction that takes you by surprise, not to be confused with making you afraid.
I have a public folder called Out of Print. It has stories that haven't updated in a year.
Every once in a while, putting a story there gets the desired response - another chapter. Only once did it get a negative response... but that guy is kind of whiny anyway, so he's somewhat excused.
I made it as a gentle nudge... "Hey man, this dead or no?" rather than " WRITE MOAR NA0!!!!111one"
That is kinda rude telling you to update your story like that. It is in my favorites already.

I'm not offended.

However the story is listed as complete and any more chapters are the cherry on top.
Well.
Okay then.
( a new chapter!)

What they said!
Not sure if that's a message to the author, or a bookshelf he's checking every five minutes because he really, really wants more of them.

Maybe it's both?
And not 5 minutes, 5 seconds!

Hehe...dat's funny.
I chose to believe that you had this chapter all ready in advance, preparing for the joke when someone inevitably asked for an update.

nah, don't worry. I haven't even read half of your story yet. WAIT FOR MEEE, I WILL CATCH UP

Wow... I'm impressed.
Now I want to make such a shelf and throw all my favorite incomplete stories in it... Would that get me lynched?
