	I truly value the feedback from each and every one of you, with a special shout-out to you, Robin! ;-) It's important to acknowledge that our community is the driving force behind Poetry.com's success, and we are committed to enhancing it to meet the expectations of our esteemed members. The matter at hand is undoubtedly subject to debate, and we will continue to brainstorm collectively on ways to make notable improvements as we move forward. more » 11 months ago	View
	I have no straightforward response to this feedback to be honest. On one hand, displaying the poet names before the contest can enhance transparency, but on the other hand, concealing them can avoid voters from being influenced by external factors like reputation or previous work. As a middle-ground solution, we have opted to display the poet initials, which we hope is a suitable compromise. more » 11 months ago	View
