Moderators: Cannot Submit Poem

    I get the following error trying to submit:

    "Error
    Warning : There might be some spelling mistakes in your poem. Please, use spell checker to fix them. If you use internet slang in your poem, submit it to category dedicated to poetry written using slang. If you have checked your poem and there are no mistakes, press "submit" button"

    Ideally, I should be able to post a poem with words spelt any way I wish. Moreover, when I use the spell checker, it consistently to fails to pick up some words - ie: eldritch.

    How do I submit into the category I wish (Dark), without having to put in "Slang", for the poem is definitely not slang.

    Thanks in advance,
    c.

    I'm with her. I sent a moderator an email about it, as well.
    A poetry site should recongnize words such as 'Rondeau' and 'Terzanelle', for they're types of poetry.
    I hope this is fixed soon. Until then, I doubt I'll be posting anything.

    Usually it works to submit it to slang and then switch it right over to the category you want.

    However, since the edit tool seems to be not working, that won't work right now.

    It will be fixed. Don't post if you don't want to, but everyone else is faced with the same problem and should understand why it's in the wrong section.

    I had that problem, i couldn't submit my poem cos it didn't like the fact i'd wrote 'us'. With the little quotation marks around it.
    The poem sounds stupid without them so i guess i'll have to wait til it's fixed right?
    Any idea how long it will take please?

    I make websites. I type my poems up on notepad and save them on my ipod so i can view them whenever i wish on screen.
    I am not moaning, just hoping that something resoursful will happen to this website.

    And also, i don't edit my poems.
    They are raw. Only spelling errors and grammatical errors and misused words deserve to be edited. The lines and rhymes are not.

    We don't care about the errors, just about the fact that we can't submit LONG poems.

    Hint: When you complain, read the whole thread.

    Another hint:
    If you don't want to read about moaning and complaining, don't look in the feedback and suggestions section, cause you should know very well moaning and complaining is just what you're going to get.

    Have a nice day.

    This thread deserves to be locked (hint, hint moderator)
