Dammit!

Um, I am totally bummed. I like the changes to the site, BUT, I have just posted my first poem since the changes were made, and for some reason the SPACING BETWEEN THE STANZAS WAS NOT SAVED AND THE POEM WAS POSTED AS ONE LONG STANZA INSTEAD OF THREE!!! This kind of TOTALLY RUINS THE RYTHM OF THE POEM! What do I have to do to make that not happen again? Do I have to delete and re-post the poem? What gives? Why? Why, why, why??????

RE: Dammit!

Hi, I have posted a new poem to find errors in it, and had to delete it just minutes after the posting. If it's in the weekly contest the only option is to delete.
If it's not in contest you can click edit poem and change it from the edit box then re-submit it. the contest option is to delete and re-submit, hopefully with the correct format. I had to repost a poem three times because it wasn't formatted correctly. Hope that helps

Hey,

Can you give me the link to one of your poems that isn't formatted the same anymore?

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
