purged my comments, all quite useless
my contributions tend to be pointless
left my stupid prose, i suppose for posterity
from them I only gain shame and no money
sorry for bringing this place, and all of you down
i shouldnt openly display a virtual frown
just an attention seeker, selfish and crude
i want to be kind, but downvotes tell me i’m rude.
do not perceive this jerk,
demoted to witness, just lurk
some of my rhymes made you smile
but the rest are stupid and sad
just bad, and personally vile.
<3 I love seeing your comments even if I don’t engage with them.
People will downvote no matter how innocuous the comments are. Someone downvoted my comment where I said today’s going to be a slow day. Guess Sonic didn’t like my comment. Oh well.
No! I can’t believe you have haters. Fuck the haters! I love everything you post
Edit: I was speaking with someone yesterday and I literally brought you up as a regular poster I loved.
Walking around on cool winter nights
Beautiful city and pale gold lights
So many people minding their business
No animosity, just inner stresses
When out of the darkness a looming face
Approaches out of the weeknight race
They know my name, and my highschool
Panic, frack, who are they? You fool…
They come in fast, too fast to avoid
I gotta think fast, my memory is devoid
“Hey…you,” I say “It’s been too long!”
“I know right,” is the reply “remember when…”
Ah shit, I think, no, I don’t remember a thing
Applied fake smile and say “Yeah haha sure thing!”
And still their face doesn’t ring a bell
I don’t know who they are, circles of hell
“We ought to catch-up,down a pint, and reflect”
“Sounds like a plan, just hit me up” I deflect
Then off they speed, just as quick as they came
Do they suspect I still don’t remember their name?
If you have many downvotes I can only assume they are recent wanderers from Reddit who are still primed for the fight and have not yet learned this is a safe space where its OK to be nice.
I personally enjoy your posts and consider you a great contributor in the community. It would make me sad if you just lurked.
We love you and all of your thoughts. What gave you the idea otherwise? Downvotes? Its a shame we can see how many ups and downs.
I’d rather not have the sinking feeling either and was getting a few last week, but they’ve stopped. This is all of our safe space, and we’re here to support you.
I’ve been busy and not able to attend this thread as I normally would, and can I just say: Thank God you’re here! I was actually worried about you! I’d noticed you deleted your posts before I even got a chance to read them and I thought, “oh shit, what’s going on here? Are we losing an attendee? Are they succumbing to self doubt?” One person might downvote, and it doesn’t matter. You know why? Because fuck 'em, that’s why! It might be an occasional drunkard stabbing at the wrong bit of their screen… or they might just be a gutless wonder who can’t express themselves- unlike you.
more selfishness i suppose.

Love your posts and rhymes, and please take no notice of downvotes - I reckon we all get them now & then. Please keep posting, too!
