And I'll add one final thought here: whatever reception a newbie recieves, is pretty much determined by how they initially present themselves to our community. In otherwords, first impressions and you bring it upon yourself. If it's such that requires moderator involvement, then there is a valid reason for that, and not because we're a bunch of thugs. The overall goal is to keep DUP a place where people can feel welcome to share their work without having to worry about childish or troll-like or other invasive behavior from other members. Presuming to know the entire workings of things usually turns out to be a false assumption once you really get in here and see some of what goes on that needs addressing.

Aw shit! This is better than jerry springer. On an actually helpful note, why the fuck are people starting shit. If I wanted drama I'd fuck your mamma. This is a poetry site for people who give a fuck about poetry. Keep your rants in poems. Also much love to madameL purveyor of my only trophy as a newbie at the time. Suck on that. Everyone else makes me runner up. That's cool though, less pressure on second best.

You flatter me. Also I will be writing something for your year of birth poem, but I have to do some research first. The most significant thing I can think of from my birth year is my birth I was too young to remember much else

Okay... I guess someone has nothing to do.
I'm really not concerned with you nor do I feel I was addressing you when I made my gangbusters statement but if you have a strong need to be included in the group, hey by all means. Some people just need to feel included.
You know what? I think I'll suck it up. Just like my friend up top, I have my three posts, so now I can get to what matters. The poetry, right? Thanks for the welcome! [/quote]
no sweat I appreciated the descriptor . the sorry was because i don't wantto derail a thread of such importance. oh that pisses off the guardians... and you don't wanna piss off the guardians... theyll fuck you up! welcome, angry newcomer, whether you concern yourself with me or not

Hi:) every now and then I go over my poems and I edit, alter, etc. However I notice that there's no notification(for lack of a better word). Is there any way to publicise that a poem has been edited?

Seeing all the other posts below mine being days old is an odd feeling...
I thought since dup changed servers a while back that these periods of downtime would be a thing of the past *sigh*
