BLOCKED: COWARDICE - Veronica Joseph's Blog

Working away a  few days and the site blew up!
but really: you blocked me because you didn't like my comment that really, its no one's business what another poet does? And it seems you removed other comments that questioned your "authority".

Unless you are on the paid staff of Poetry Soup, people can have 10 accounts and have every one of their neighbors judge and write poems and its not your business.  IF you have a concern (unless you WANT all this negative attention) then take it up privately with the staff and don't disrupt the peaceful vibe.

Pay attention to the poet who reported that people will not enter contests or post poems because of controlling members who like to humiliate.

Or

Is that why you're here?

Vince Suzadail Jr. Date: 9/27/2011 3:18:00 PM Sorry if I sound sexist in this so far all female blog, but my son had the same room mates in college for four years, all different in their opinions and pursuits., all friends yet. His twin sister may have had a room mate for about 4 weeks at the most. One of her new room mates as a freshman was working on her third set of room mates by November of her freshman year. I try never to offend a woman because some time in the next 80 years, she is going to get even twice over. I worked in a garment factory and on the docks with longshoreman and merchant marines. The docks were easier and much much less vindictive. Let's stop the bull and focus on the poetry. Hate is still an acid, and no matter how beautiful the vessel that holds it is, it still erodes it from the inside. God Bless all of you. Login to Reply

Veronica Joseph Date: 9/25/2011 9:44:00 PM exactly. Why focus on one poet? That's my point exactly. Login to Reply

Team Poetrysoup Date: 9/25/2011 8:32:00 PM We have no idea to whom you are referring, but if a poet blocks you unjustly (in your opinion), so what! There are 15,294 + other members on the website. Why focus on one poet? Login to Reply

Veronica Joseph Date: 9/25/2011 7:55:00 PM @Constance - I saw that and I agree. For sure this is all about the blocker getting as much attention as possible- and she succeeded again.AGAIN!. Be careful who you call teacher. I agree the end. Login to Reply

Veronica Joseph Date: 9/25/2011 6:38:00 PM @Francine: no I didn't miss it, and it infuriated me that this kind of manipulation goes on. Just unbelievable. I'm thinking that anyone she blocks is a threat to her. Again: bully behavior. Login to Reply

Veronica Joseph Date: 9/25/2011 6:31:00 PM where is the coward, to anwer our comments? I know she'll run, because that's what a bully does. Login to Reply

Poet Destroyer A Date: 9/25/2011 6:30:00 PM about multiple accounts... Humm! lol.... Once my sister SIDNEY :-( left so DID, our SKAT account~ But, I IRMA~LINDA .. Will stay and maybe go back to my nickname... WISH I love.. but, for now I must find my role in the poetry world. And as for another account. I will open another account for my RESTAURANT customers.,.. And I will name it... THE WAFFLE GUEST!!! They have been curios about the site.. I promised them that they can leave comments as soon as i set up an account at my restaurant.. And I don't think their is any harm in having my customers read and comment the poets here on the soup.. Have yourself a nice day,..p.d. Login to Reply

Francine Roberts Date: 9/25/2011 6:27:00 PM P.D. you are wanted and loved and respected as are all the poets here who are here for the right reasons, to help , to share, to enjoy, to mentor. This has been a miserable few days for all of us, even those of us who haven't been blocked or slandered yet , we still hurt that our friends hurt. Login to Reply

Poet Destroyer A Date: 9/25/2011 6:21:00 PM I have no idea what you are talking about.. but you are so right.. (( YOU WONT BELIEVE HOW MANY POETS HAVE BLOCKED ME FOR NO REASON~)) THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS MY NAME AND JEALOUSY,, ANYWAYS~I missed out on a lot. That is because I try to stop by every other day or, day.. Me and my sister where on the soup as a Tag Team,, but she went back to her normal Life,, lol~ her baby got in the way. As for my daughter Royal, SHE also left. My 16 year old son tried this site but, did not like the site at all...How ever HE did HELPED ME COMMENT, a few times. As for me, I found love, AND still come back here. Even if I don't feel wanted. Login to Reply

Francine Roberts Date: 9/25/2011 5:55:00 PM uh oh and I guess you missed the fact that you weren't the only one blocked over totally normal, acceptable comments. You are right, in a matter of a few days it all blew up and there are several victims, not fair , not fair at all. lots of hurt feelings of very nice people , not something new people on this site will be impressed with. consider the source, your comment was totally appropriate and should never have been blocked/deleted., All the blogs at the moment are angry or sad, just tragic.
