I have actually never thought about posting time before. Maybe it's because in my main fandom most people live in my time zone anyway and the short time when I tried to wreak havoc on PoT (I prefer it as a reading fandom now), it just never occured to me. But then, I am so slow in my writing anyway, I probably finish a fic once in a decade if the stars are favourable. But if they are, I have to admit I'm pitiful with checking on comments either. I just want to have one person who has not been my beta reading it. And if they didn't like it, give me concrit so I can be aggrieved improve, but then personally I think people don't give concrit as it's too much work or they don't want to offend the writer. But ooops, that wasn't the topic ^^

As for my flist, I feel like every person on it deserves my attention, so I really try to give my best and read every entry on it, and I already feel bad for skipping two, but the cold has reduced my attention span to around zero. If I don't comment, it probably means I haven't had something intelligent to say.

Regarding fics on my flist, the two other fandoms I like are small, so I skip over pairings I'm not interested in and as I seem to have obscure pairing taste, there is sometimes just not enough fic. But okay, pairings are not everything if the writer is good, so I also like to depend on recs. One could say that is lazy but I just don't have the time to read all the fics that appear on my flist.
If I'm moody, but the fic interests me in general, I often put in my unread fics category in my memories where they have been piling up, but are always there if I want them. But I guess some authors are really surprised if they get a comment after half a year or so and some tend to be sulky that you didn't read the story at once. Though hey, getting a comment at some point of time is better than getting none at all.

I bet I had something more to say, but I can't remember anymore. Guess I've rambled *sheepish*
