I've gotten plenty of response whichever way I work. I find when I'm of a mood to focus and revise quickly members follow the edits and comment on changes, it can be fun and exciting to work like that, IME members will stay for the ride. But I've also found that even when I take more time, weeks, months, sometimes coming back after a year to rework it, members will return with me and crit the changes.
I think that as long as I respond to the crit and consider it, hopefully at some time using it, the pen is always eager to give. It's interesting to give crit and see it being used but we know each poem takes its own time. I myself am learning to go slower but when I'm on a roll I tend to swing the axe a bit recklessly, knowing I can always go back, I've posted quite a few train wrecks. It all depends on what I find fun, but my poem, my thread, I can do what I like.
So I guess my view is that there are no rules or etiquette except to respect and consider the crit, then do what you think is best for the poem at any pace that suits you.
