    Someone keeps voting a 1 on my poems... i get about 3 5's then someone comes in and votes 1!

    One thing: I DO NOT WRITE FOR THE RATING, IM JUST SICK OF PEOPLE VOTING 1 AND NOT SAYING WHY!!!

    I have a pretty good idea who it is.

    anyone else have this?!?!?!?!

    thats what i think it is... the person who i think is doing it, is because of me not my poetry!!

    I know how you feel! Every time a poem of mine makes it to the Top rated recent poems, I’m sure to receive a 1, happens every time! I think it's ridiculous the site has so many immature people. I have learned you have to ignore the votes. A 1 seems to always come with no explanation! It's usually from a person that doesn't like you, or is jealous and wants their poetry to have all the recognition! Honestly, I doubt they even read the poems!

    I know what u mean i've had that happen I had like two 5's for my poem that I worked on, and did a pretty good job, and someone voted a 1.0 on it kinda made me a lil ticked.

    Yep. I've had it.

    Along with the other 40,000 members on this site. O.o

    And yeah it is annoying sometimes, just when you notice it...but always remember that it's just a little number. Sometimes 5's can be much to low for your own evaluation for your poetry, so it's all on what you think about how well you did. So no worries. :)

    Peaces.

    Very well said Ari.

    Yeah i get that sometimes.

    I feel bad for them if anything else. Obviously they have low self esteem if they're so quick to bring down a poem they probably thought was good. Or they might have no life if they just go around trying to piss people off by rating ones.

    It sucks but not much you can do about it.

    err!!! I KNOW!!! I gave this girl a not-so-suk-up comment...i just told her that her poetry needed a lot of work because i wouldn't really even consider it poetry right now, rather paragraphs. And then today i get on and 5 of my featured poems got ones...with no coment at all....so now they're rated 4.2's and 4.1's instead of 4.8-5.0....it's not the vote so much that matters, because I know i had like 20 other 5's so her little ones aren't going to hurt me...but just the idea pisses me off!!! ERR!! PEOPLE ARE SO IMMATURE!!!!
