RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

Now, I am getting a feel for what we are doing here.

I would love to be part of making this a vibrant, beautiful and artistic forum.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

it can be done...
this place can be run smoothly any glitches we shall call in our best Knights ~giggle~
Most sites With Admin ,can Ban a disruptive member, and deny access ...but on Places like OP it might be a bit difficult, But we can Protect those that Are bein' Harassed..Both Privately and Publicly, the cyber world opens doors to many opportunities and sometimes the ugly..we just as a Community have to keep it in check.Tierra[/i

Hi Angel!!!!
Hi Hope!!! lovins to ya both!! Angel jump in anytime!!

Yes Hope they messed with us hard. But here's the deal- they won't step it up/ they have turned their backs on their committments here, On us! It is up to us to handle things if we want to share this land.. we can only do that by laying out the rules and respect guidlines before we start.

Papapackzi did set up a poetry site for us too. But so many refused to relocate to there. He tired though

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

as much as I would love to rebuild our community, our extended family, there lies one hudge barrier. Papa tried to take over OP many moons ago and he was axed. From what he told me the owner could care less what we think, they are content with the money they are making on the site and would rather see OP burn to dust before they give up the rights to the site. question lies, what can we really do???

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

Exactly Tierra!! It's up to us.. there is no one to cry to, but each other.. and we need to ostrasize those who are here to bring us down.. it's our only defense.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

the real issue that stands in out way is the owners of OP. Papa tried many moons ago to take over OP, they axed him. He offered to buy them out, they said they would rather see OP burn to dust than give up the rights to OP.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

truth is without the owners support we have no power, papa was our only link and he is long gone. Maddi you know better than anyone, the owners just don't care what we think and what we want.

Was the trolling/rudeness within the Poets of Blood forum? I remember one person being snarky.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

Angel.. I know. But they cant stop us from using the land here.. that's my point, we build a mutal undrestanding on how to treat each other, how to keep the peace.. and we just reconect- write and share. We cant take it over the jerks wont sell.. but we can move in again!! But it is up to us to keep this place peacful! This is my vision.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

Hi Angel Hi Hope Hi Poett..
good to see all you Beautiful Souls..
@ Ginga,
Hi Sweetie, I was just mentionin' it coz in a smaller community it helps to be read rather than to push existin' poetry away..now on a big site as OP...geez I can only imagine..it was just a suggestion..too bad this site doesn't have a post date area for our poetry...post them and allow it to automatically be posted..
I've been on the smaller communities that have many posts per day,thatincludes the max per writer. there are times when I can not read, comment and Feature but there are a good number of staff to keep the flow..

Kelly he may have passed away. He was ill.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

this thead as we are commenting is already messing up, either a glitch the owerns care less to fix as usual or they are on to us and deleting our comments as we are trying to post, either way it seems like a lost cause , sad really... truth is without papa we have no power and even as powerful as our combined voices can be, the problem is the owners don't bother to listen.

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

me and WS tried and tried to reach them with not one response, not a word. nothing but silence...

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

I noticed a glitch earlier.

I have to run - must workout. It was nice meeting new people and seeing old friends.

Take care and good night (I will revisit this thread and posts some more poems as well as read others').

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

It has been nice to see these familiar icons and names up on the same site once more...

It is also evident there is much yet to be explored...

Will drop by to see how this discussion has progressed.

Thanks again for the inclusion tonight!

Best to you all~
Happy writing!

woww ... hi Maddi, hi Ginga, hi Hopey ... hi Go! ... who did i miss?

01-16-2013 at 11:03:25 PM

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

I would love to move back in to a working site, but the issue is the owners have let the site go to crap. last time I was one, the chatroom kept crashing, the contest is long long gone, even posting and reviewing poems doesn't work properly like before. The issue remains without papa or someone to take his place, there is noone working behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly. The site is now filled with tons of bugs and glitches, what do we do about that???

RE: OP FAMILY; First Meeting

Welome nam. I dont know Angel, I havent gotten a chance to post yet.. I commented some tho, and that felt great!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
