Where do the newbs go?

[next]

some people just like to populate every site on the net with their poetry, it's often that great that they just have to get it out there.

Yeah, I can see that. I just don't understand not wanting to come back and at least look at the comments.
...

What makes you think they don't come back and look at the comments?
I think they come back, read the comments, and run away in a state of shock.

Because they've realized how wretched their poetry really is?
No, they're in shock to find so many people with bad taste.
