I will admit I am guilty of a few of these, however my hiatus was a year and due to losing my housing many times within that year. I would do my best to come back, but something would happen and it didn't work out.
Well damn, I'm guilty of the deleting everything, but after a year, I highly doubt people remember anything about my comic. I mean I had 300ish subs, but I doubt people remembered anything about it. u_u This way we can all re-read it together and get to know it again I guess? I see it as a better way than before when I uploaded all 30some pages in a single day forever ago.
I am far more stable now though and have the time to give to Tapas. I left mainly due to moving so much/being unstable but STAYED away due to the drama I was hearing about. I am hoping it can all be better this time around I guess. I feel pretty bad doing some of the things I did, however I am doing what I feel is best for the readers and me, not to piss people off on purpose? I mean what other options do I have after being gone for so long?
As far as me unsubbing, usually not updating for a long time (like a year or more) though usually I will wait forever if I like it enough, jut hoping for more. Drama involving the author in other stuff offline or online. Or artists who I think morally are in the wrong for one reason or another.
