So, out of the 5 comics I check that are supposed to be updated Tuesdays and Thursdays, 1 actually had an update (thank you Mr. Dean). I know these are free and complaining about it is close to punching their mothers, but it just comes across as completely unprofessional. Perhaps it's just Kurt, but it seems like the webcomics industry is trying to gain legitimacy and more prominence alongside newspaper comics. That's wonderful and I look forward to that happening, but not updating because you're going to a Con or moving or whatever kills any of the "legitimacy" you've built up.
If I know I'm going to be out of work, I make sure everything that would be due is done before I leave. I also understand most of the guys have other jobs and responsibilities, but if you start moonlighting in a regular job you're still expected to do both as long as you're employed for it.
Perhaps I'm overreacting, but I'm tired of hearing "take us seriously" while they don't seem to take their own work seriously.
