I warned you all months ago. The teeners are coming. They kill all the credibility of sites like these. Bramblestory was a nice site until Junior High hacks and hackers started showing up in droves. There's a kid named Gerald that at one point self voted himself into 7 of the top ten poems. I've read about this happening at numerous other sites around the web. The solution is to be cruel just like we were in the good ol' days and for those of us that have some credentials i.e. degrees in literature to admit to it more. Many really serious about writing are looking for people who are pros to give them advice.
Dovina, make some kind of outlandish statement in one of your next poems, that should bring a few of our old friends out to play.
