there are two forums which fit the criteria of those not wishing critique or serious feedback, here's what it says in the for fun forum;
Feel free to join in any games and challenges. Try to keep banter to a minimum in these threads and follow the rules. Banter and lighthearted responses are encouraged in all other threads. No critique is required.
here's what it says in miscellaneous forum;
For poetry of all kinds including spoken word, visual response (poems with pictures), experimental, fusion or anything for which the poet does not require critique. Comments may, however, include critique. Comments may also be simple appreciation, emotional responses, light banter or verse. Moderators may step in if comments deviate too far from the original post* and threads may be moved to a discussion forum at that point. Please heed all moderator suggestions or warnings.
no site can cater for all poets but we do and will continue to try and do so. first and foremost we're a workshop, now and again we'll forget what forum we're in and give in depth feedback in mild or for fun. mistakes are inevitable.
i don't have the "ego" i use common sense. if i wanted to stick to my guns and not get honest feedback i'd have started a back patting poetry forum and the membership would be a million
ego doesn't help us stick to our guns. if anything ego stops us from seeing the value of feedback. choice and discernment are the things we need to use. ego's are deaf and that is more of a hindrance than a help
