Comment from Caressa_08
I sort of agree...Long writes, I have not the time of day, unless they are truly interesting & keep me entralled,& my housework left, so appalling, indeed!..Wish I could read every one's story here & give credit due where it is deserved.. .Though yes, pay me, thank you, that will be quite nice...To pay for a maid service that I can get....Though am no expert, or not yet the poet number 1 or 2..Or, the judge, who has so many degrees...Though people wait & some with lengthy stories to get, maybe, one review , maybe two a day...Unless they pay to get to the top of the list...Through the nose....Just pay us here, at least a quarter per read, or the real long ones can be a dollar, that will suffice.
Thanks, Sankey, for putting this one out,....C.

Hi new friend Caressa. Appreciate you coming by. As I said elsewhere have had this on my heart for quite some time and a good friend I was talking to only other day gave me the idea that if there is a lousy reward to just skip it! But some stories are soooo good I am a sucker as I have said a number of times for a good story remuneration or not ha! Thanks. again.

I'm the same way...Better than watching TV...And, these days, here, & think where you reside...You have to pay to do just that...C.
Comment from AnnieGale
Your poem is very true for FS...I enjoy writing just because. I don't rather care to be recognized or not. We all have different ideas and talents...but we write because we enjoy it for ourselves and if we earn points or dollars, that's just a perk to me. I always enjoy your writing though. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Sis good you came by. Have had so much response to this I am amazed. I am not worried about rewards most of the time e=if the poem or story is good but I agree with what the friends said about how proud someone is of their work according to their promotion.God Bless and thanks again!
Comment from GWinterwin
Good poem with words that tell a very important message. I agree about getting rewarded for taking the time to review. I don't give the highest reward for sure but I try to make it half way valuable to review my work.

Thanks Bro appreciate you coming by. As I have told people some of the stories around the place really get me in even if the reward is lousy. Not that it applies to you ok!

Comment from judiverse
This is cleverly done, and you really hit a note with this. I have a few people that I read who don't promote their work. They post several times a week, so I'm spending a lot of time reviewing without getting much in the way of a reward. You're right about the short poems paying as much as the long stories or novels. Doesn't seem fair. Your rhyme in this is really great, and it comes off very smoothly. This has a great conversational tone. judi

Thanks Sis well you know I am all about conversation ha! Appreciate the fine review and thanks.

Hi, Sankey. You're very welcome. It's hard to do enough reviewing to make the member dollars add up. judi

Yeah well I remember the struggle I had at the outset.
Comment from ravenblack
I still read and review many 2 centers. I just can't keep up with those who post two two centers a day. If someone only posts the occasional 2 center, not a problem.

Hey me too as I said in the Author notes I am a sucker for a good story even if the reward is miserable. Appreciate you coming by not sure if we have met yet. Will check your stuff out as I have time.
Comment from PatVallesMangan
To be part of this community, we must remain fair and give fair reviews. In the beginning it is difficult to do so many reviews to get the amount of money needed to promote. Nothing is perfect but this all seems to work out very well. Cheers for FS and for your great message and enjoyable poem. Taking pride in what you do means so much. Thanks for this insight. Blessings ~ Pat

Comment from Charlene0513
To Sankey,
Fairness is a necessity on this site. But sometimes newbies will rate you unfairly simply because they don't understand how it works or simply don't care as long as they get their pay outs(member pumps) which I find is deeply unjust.
I have always felt something should be done to correct this situation. But then again we all do not think alike.

Hui Charlene Geoff here ok! I love your review thanks. I got the oidea from a dear friend on here about the amount of Pride someone has in their work showing by the amount of reward they offer for reviews. I do remember ion my early days having to actually PAY real dinero for member Dollars to reward reviewers with. As I have said to people I am packed up with member Dollars so it is no bother to read something with a low reward especially if it is a good story or poem. Thanks for coming by picking up some more new friend in FS again.
Comment from ProjectBluebook
Exactly how I always looked at it. If a person don't promote his works -- tells you how much he thinks of his poem or prose. Some may think... well, the reviews I get is not because of money, they will be truthful, not money motivated. However, if you got the doubloon, why not promote it. Ain't it worth it to you? This is a money world, and the site runs on money. What is the sin in promoting? I always promote, I figure the reader needs to be rewarded for their time, for time is money in this real world. If I got no doubloon, I review to earn some certificates and to promote, like I'm doing now. Like the picture, very patriotic, indeed. I did a poem once called 'Down Under.' it's in my portfolio, a simple 5/7/5 contest about an animal you would be if yif you were an animal. i picked the Dingo. Lol! Guess, I'm like one. Haha! Love your enthusiasm and pride. cheers... do loco

You're not obligated to review me. I tell all of my fans that. This is my hobby, I have fun. I will investigate that preacher on TV, say, Sunday? Later, mate.

NOT ON TV maste I don't think there is a Grace baptist Web site and he preraches on there I guess they might be on TV but the Fifteen Minutes of Faith is his own radio session.

OK. Thanks!
