That IS frustrating! I will read WIP's sometimes. I have no set rules for it. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.
As a writer, I don't like posting WIP's. I usually just start out with a stand-alone story that I have ideas about for the future, and then maybe I'll write a sequel.
Having said that, I have one major WIP going on right now, and I feel bad that it's taking so long to write it. I don't blame people at all who are refusing to read it until it's done.
I've also left 2 unfinished WIP's in my last fandom. I started them even as I was losing interest in the fandom itself... and then Stargate basically just blew in and completely blind-sided me. Very quickly. Tsunami-like. And I never went back and finished those 2 WIP's. Probably never will. I feel bad about it though. Because of that, I try not to post WIP's anymore.

You know, except the one right now.
