the poems done so far and their responses can be merged with the novice forum so that would be a problem.
over the last few months we've had periods when the site had a vanity forum feel to it. it's not a nice thing to see and certainly goes against the grain of what the site was aiming for. newbs will still be welcomed with a heartwarming joining letter and it will be explained why we require 5 pieces of feedback ( from those or from the lack of those we can ascertain whether they want to be on a site that helps people to workshop and a cuddle or a site where they just want a warm fuzzy felt cuddle.
i didn't expect to see many newbs responding here so please, prove me wrong. would any of you be pissed if we moderated you on a one poem for one piece of feedback basis (five time)
i'm sure i would be, in fact i've been on such sites and usually just laid down the five pieces of feedback before posting a poem or posted them just after posting a first poem. we have some members here who did just that.
doing it this way would also allow us to accept some posts outside the three forums as feedback if they're of value to the site.
