From what I have read so far, -=Dark_Angel=- is the best fucking thing that has ever happened to this board. And yeah, he's totally got you beat on the "l33t" name thing, as I believe he was being sarcastic and making fun of his own name. "Felchstraw"... genius!

And his point, if it hasn't been driven in before, is the following:

This poem is not good. Period. It is not talented poetry. It is trite. These comments are not questionable: they're not just opinions, they're pretty much given as truths. This is a public web page titled "Poemranker". We rank poems at Poemranker. Ranking involves judgement, henceforth it is our duty to judge your poetry. We have judged it, and found it to be not good poetry.

His second, and seperate point, is that he's tired of people thinking that this isn't crap, because it is. And, consequently, he's tired of this page being flooded with crappy poetry. It's understandable to get tired of crap every once and a while. Are you tired of country music? Or the Backstreet Boys? If so, you can relate to how -=Dark_Angel=- is feeling. He feels like ranting and insulting people, so that's what he did. So show him a bit of compassion, people! Sweet Jesus. Try to be nice sometimes, and MAYBE he'd be nicer to you. Do onto others as you'd have them do unto you, or something like that.
