That definitely sounds dumb. Nothing wrong with WIPs but they should be marked as such.

sorry, have a migraine, had to go lay back down for a bit.

see, I'm wondering if it is just a whole miscommunication problem. "Oh, my chapter is complete, so I'll make it as complete!" and then the whole story shows up as complete.

Or they just don't know what the word complete really means. (Beginning, middle and ending... especially ENDING.)

I stopped posting stories years ago because everything has been of epic length lately and nothing is complete. I have novel lengths stories I'd love to post but, they still aren't done (or the series isn't done or whatever) I have abandoned works in progress... which upsets me at times but not enough to go back quite yet. And I don't want to do that with new stories.

Just, I never had the gall to mark my WIPs as complete. oye vie.

Hmm...maybe. But if you (general you) are marking chapters as complete and it's coming up as story = complete I think you should probably brush up on the mechanics of the fic-posting sites you're using.

I feel like once someone accidentally did this once someone else would get upset and then they'd learn, rather than leave it up that way.

If it's really common, though, then I'm sure at least a few people do it on purpose in hopes that people will start reading their WIPs when they otherwise wouldn't (either for the hits or for the feedback) and that's pretty shitty. :/
