Reader Expectations on Updates

[unspeakablehorror]

Thinking I need to update my 'story comment preferences' to add that I prefer not to receive demands or expressions of disappointment regarding my update speed.  Especially if someone comments on my most recently updated work solely to express this kind of sentiment, it just seems a bit unkind to me.  I appreciate many other kinds of comments, including short comments or comments that include criticism, but this is not a kind of comment I like (nor am I alone as an author in this particular sentiment).  I do not expect readers to comment on or even give likes to my works, and I feel they shouldn't expect me to update on any particular timetable.  Not that people necessarily read any of that kind of thing and it's not as if I haven't mentioned many times in other places that I simply don't do regular updates.
