So, uh, my personal rule is that I shouldn't let any post become more than "4 days ago" without receiving a reply, but that's, like, worst case scenario. Other than that, it depends on my whims. So, yesterday I had this urge to write, and was able to finish those large posts. Then it became the question of "do I wait until the last possible second to post this?" ... Which I resolved to be "nah" and posted it.
What I think I was trying to write was "post sooner and you'll get a reply sooner", which I realize isn't always entirely the case, but you can expect that I'm working on a post and might not wait whenever it says "3 days ago" on the latest post. I might wait to see if more posts show up at "2 days ago" or earlier. Er.
My apologies. Perhaps I should reinstate the "will try to post in x hours" posts. I have, though, found that lately I can't always trust myself to achieve that and hesitate to make such claims. Hah.
