what we could do is create a no critique icon for people to use in the poetry forums where one has a choice.
would that be a decent compromise?
I actually share the site's aim, and the value of feed-back is never more degraded than when anything less than 'Super awesome amazing' is treated as a personal insult. But I have seen those who have wandered off, explaining that it was all a bit heavy and pressured. I don't see a reason to look down on them, and as long as the emphasis remains on some kind of reasoned feed-back, I cannot see any harm in renaming say Misc as a show-case or gallery. As in a gallery, people do comment, (and never seem to imagine that the person right by them is the artist). I am certain that with clever wording, it could be made attractive, while yet explaining that comments may be made, but should give some reason, or gut response. There again, the Pig seems to have been doing well without my suggestions......
