Do they deserve the ratings?

    Hi.

    I've just noticed that the ratings of some of my poems just keep getting lower and lower.

    My Cry
    Lust
    Disease Called Love

    Do they deserve the ratings, considering the fact that they just keep decreasing with every vote?

    Well, not really complaining. Just curious, I guess.

    if you were at a 5 and people voted 4 it would lower your points slowly, thats probably what happened, 4.4 is still good, keep it up

    Actually, 4.4 is a pretty good rating, y'know. You should be proud. Also, I've read some of your stuff, and it's great. You've nothing to worry about.

    dont worry, some people cant cope with poems being rated 5 and others just cant comprehend the art, and others jus dun like it. I just pass it by. most people cant comprehend most of mine.... but yeh, dun worry bout it.

    4.4 is brilliant. I know some poets would do anything for a poem to be 4.4 or above. Be proud of it!

    I really don't mean to sound cocky or anything but i think that those poems that have been rated down deserve a higher rating. I've come aross poems that were just horrible, yet with ratings such as 4.7, 4.9... I know my poems are better. yeah, 4.4 isn't low, but the fact remains that I know they deserve better.

    Especially these ones..

    Why people are rating them low, over and over, I don't know, because none of them bother to tell me why.

    but thanks you guys, especially to those who read them and thought they were good.

    I've actually decided not to really care. Again, I know they're good, and no one on here can tell me otherwise. I thought I had something to look forward to when I joined this site. i was wrong. it's just like every other poetry site. None of it matters at all.
