You know, the ones that don't stay long. They post a poem first, because they don't know if it's good or horrible.
But when they start talking, it's easier to see how ignorant they are. They just want to know if their poem is good first. If their poem turns out to be good, then they feel more open, and can comment on others.
It's easier to post a poem first. If it's treated like shit, they can disappear. Regroup. Get a new user name. But when they start talking poetry, giving their opinionated critiques, they're doomed.
It's hard to know anything these days. Everything looks so easy.
