I don't cut and paste, but there is not enough time to review to respond to them all. I skip them. Your post is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

Nice job "encouraging" those who might copy and paste reviews! I guess it goes along with the old Golden Rule. Take time to put thought into your reviews, just as you would want them to do for you! Good moral and good rhyme scheme. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Susan, I think you get my point exactly. I am a reciprocator. I like to help those who help me. Cheers.

I very much enjoyed this little rhyme. I told some else almost as much, in a conversation, not review. I said when I write something, how rude for someone to tell me I should have used this or that word and this one does not fit. Then, would I not be using their work and writing, their poem and then it is not longer mine? Very true statement in a poem and very lovely written. Sherman541

Thanks Sherman I am not sure we have met before. Quite a few of us in here are ticked off with a lot of cut and pasting reviewers. I am a reciprocator I like to help those who help me. Hope I can find your stuff to look at.

You are welcome and I do not remember your name so this is a first nice to meet you.

I don't believe copy paste unless I am answering people's reviews then maybe - I like to tell people what I think of their work and how it makes me feel.

If I see a mistake I will let them know they may want to fix it. I don't give the grammar political poetry review.

I think it means more to know some one understands, likes and appreciates what you have written.

If you look under Community and then Find a member you can find me, Sherman541 ;)

Hello Sankey!
Bravo! I applaud your courage to pen this poetic verse! I just don't understand how anyone can "copy and paste" not only a review but a reply to a review as well!
I also do not understand how some reviewers can give a writer a very low rating but offer absolutely no helpful information to be of any assistance to the writer. Whew!
I fear I am beginning to rant! Nevertheless, you verse addresses an issue that needs to be addressed.
Best Wishes,
diane

Thanks Diane. Not sure we have met before. I am glad for the great reviews I am getting as I know quite a few FS'ers who feel a lot of the same. I do try and reciprocate and help those who help me. Thanks muchly. See you around.

author,

I do not believe I have run across anyone who cut and paste reviews. Your poem relays an important message and perhaps an issue here. I have not run across this. I do know a few fanstorians do not care for an honest review and that oft stifles the reviewer for fear of reprisal when they hopefully are just trying to help.

well done...

Hi friend. I appreciate good reviews and have applied some of the helps genuinely offered over my 4 or so years on FS. I have a feeling we know each other but I do try and reciprocate...helping others who help me.
