Well they banned you, yet they know who you are and haven't banned you. So really you're not banned. Maybe Leanne and Ellejam don't like ShemthePenman but they like Hope.
Saying good things about this site, I think it comes down to this. This is a poetry site but it's also a site of critique. Some of us are here for the poetry, like Ellajam. Some of us are here, like me, who want to be criticized, I mean challenged. Some poetry sites will delete every foolish thing you say, Free For All Poetry for instance. Some praise everything you say, even if you're a little retarded, Poet Sanctuary for instance. For me, conflict is a form of love. I enjoy fighting with people. I like the experience. The shared experience. Shem, as a philosophy-man, I think you enjoy it too. Arguments are fun, conflict is fun. Some people might not feel that way, but so what? None of it is meant to be taken personally, I mean hatefully.
