I just have not got enough time, to be fair about posting a poem and then making visits to the Blogs of other good-spirited poets, who might visit my Blog. I must be honest about my lack of time, which sadly will keep me occupied on Sundays and therefore, not link a poem if I cannot ahere to the rules.<br />I try to participate at Ella's Wednesday Challenge, as it keeps my writing alive!!!<br />Thank you Mary, for all you are doing and be assured that if I can find time, I hope to return.<br />Best Wishes,<br />Eileen:)<br />Eileen T O'Neill .....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03325632298717325699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-73532442041283503432012-12-03T11:15:25.832-05:002012-12-03T11:15:25.832-05:00The link is deleted.

I am sure. Probably many of you, like me, never feel a poem is finished, perfect or ready. Indeed, they never are. That dissatisfaction is also part of that hungry drive to write, perhaps.<br /><br />Well, it is good to have a great community to share our incomplete minds with, eh?

The administrators have all sorts of rules that keep it safe for kids and fair, fun play. I assist the admins often. When someone blatantly breaks rules, their account is banned, but usually this is proceeded with e-mail suggestions, then warnings. Since admins here know poster's e-mails, I think that some frank, straightforward advice and then warnings may help. Sure, you will lose people perhaps, but usually you will lose exactly those folks you need to lose.<br /><br />Actually, as I write this, I think of how we sometimes have to "fire" patients from our medical practice. First we warn them about inappropriate behavior in our clinic, then we officially fire them -- It keeps the clinic a pleasant place for all our other patience. It is hard enough being sick, yet alone walking into a clinic with nasty, screaming people.<br />Sabio Lantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963476276106907984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-48788943656244969102012-12-03T06:18:28.540-05:002012-12-03T06:18:28.540-05:00I'm late but I'm here. off to enjoy your ...I'm late but I'm here. off to enjoy your poemsLLM Callinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199375981896229914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-54097798808046106632012-12-03T00:01:14.086-05:002012-12-03T00:01:14.086-05:00You're right, Mary.

It's dispiriting to say the least and I've left many groups because there is no community spirit at all.<br /><br />The more time I spend in this community the more I'll recognize the the users and move on. For now I am just going by the poetry I read. <br /><br />And thank for weeding them out for us.

For instance, Magpie Tales does a picture prompt.<br /><br />I guess the difference between this site and the others is mainly schedules.<br />The more the better, I guess. But I'd love much larger differences in prompt types or forms or something. Sort of thinking out loud. <br /><br />I think it is great to have a lot of sites but I see a lot of poems posts and linking to multiple sites.Sabio Lantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963476276106907984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-58378829917163441882012-12-02T18:42:14.120-05:002012-12-02T18:42:14.120-05:00Well, Anders, what is your 'mission'?Well, Anders, what is your 'mission'?
