Due to fly tipping (leaving lots of poetry) without giving feedback
elsewhere on the site.

All threads posted without giving proper feedback in one of the other
poetry forums we have will mean your poem could be deleted.

We'll try and deal with each thread started as fast as we can.
Thank you for your patience. You will, however, be free to leave
comments on other members' works in all of the poetry forums, or start
threads in non-poetry forums.

We expect poets new and old to attempt to give reasonable feedback on
other people's work before posting their own for workshopping (we work
on a give and take system).

After giving  five pieces of feedback on other people's poetry (outside the
newly registered forum), your access will be expanded and you'll be able
to start threads site-wide.
We do ban poets who write their own poetry without giving feedback
elsewhere.

We look forward to workshopping with you.

P.S.  when we say reasonable, we don't mean one line saying wow, this is
great. or one line feedback done simply to get round this rule.

In addition to these instructions, comprehensive information can be easily located in several places around the site.  Ellajam very politely informed you, immediately after you posted your introduction, that to become a full member of the site requires five pieces of feedback in the critical forums of the site.  Furthermore, you have already posted a poem here and have received a very considerate critique, which you are yet to respond to with the gratitude it deserves.  

If these expectations are incompatible with your own, there are many sites available on the internet that provide a place for you to showcase without contributing anything further.  This is not that site.
