The Poetry Forum is for POETRY ONLY! Anything else will be locked/deleted.
-PLEASE...Pay attention to what you are posting. Check it for grammar and spelling before you hit submit. If it is unreadable, then no one will care to waste their time with your post.
-PLEASE try different themes. It gets really tiresome reading 100 different poems about 'cutting' and 'death'.
-Absolutely NO POLLS! They will be deleted on sight!
-Instead of starting a new thread every time you have something new to post, keep all your posts to the SAME THREAD. When you make an update just add "(updated today's_date_)" in your thread title by editing the original post.
-We don't want 500 threads titled "my poem", "a poem", "my stuff", etc, so use more than the one braincell it takes to type those sorts of titles out and give your thread a name with a little more imagination and/or definition.
-PLAGIARISM is NOT allowed. Copying someone else's work is dishonest. If you can prove your work was copied, the person who copied it will be warned and their thread locked.
-Criticism happens. Deal with it. You have to accept all of it, good or bad. Not everyone has tact when giving it either so don't get whiny and put out if you don't like what they have to say. Do NOT start pregnant doging in your thread either. A thread that turns into a FLAME WAR, will be DELETED and you will risk BANNING.
-NO FLAMING! Do not fight in this thread. If you do so, you risk BANNING. Thats what the Arena is for. Hash out your problems there.
And just in case the last two rules didn't make sense...
-Treat all posters with respect.
