On the commenting on WIPs that haven't been updated in a while: I've been known to say something to the effect of "I hope you come back to this someday" at the end of a comment. I feel like that's a politer way than "please update" to let the writer know that if they did continue the fic, they'd have at least one reader who's interested. It's a comment I'd be happy to get on one of my abandoned works, but I'm curious what other people think.
I’m still compiling my list of ways to ask for updates, but I personally like this one. It gives me the warm and fuzzies :)
What do other people think?
