Tone it down a tad, please. Your poems are fine and I agree with you that there are no limitations on postings so - post away! Ignore the jealous. I do have a question though ... what makes one a master poet? (no, that is not a sarcastic question. I really am curious)

By posting many poems in one day, you do not break any web site rules, but it does impact others in a few certain ways that could be construed as being rude and selfish. People like their poems seen and read by others. When someone posts a bunch of poems in one session it moves others' poems down this list and makes them harder to find and less likely to be read. No one is suggesting you are breaking rules, they are just asking for common courtesy. Their suggestion to you, I believe, was also meant as advice for you. If you, too, want your poems read and responded to, you would have a better chance of getting each poem looked at if you posted only one or two a day. Since you are already a Master Poet (self acclaimed) you may not care to have others' feedback - if you do, you might want to slow down the posts. Now, I understand some come here to simply archive their poetry on a web site for safe keeping and tend to download their entire portfolio as soon as they join. Maybe the web site should provide a means for doing that without cluttering up the New Poems page. No one is trying to be rude in suggesting you are posting too much, just trying to ensure their one poem a day does not get lost in your 50+ poems. Like I said, common courtesy. Try it some time. Joe
