Re: Policies For Intikhaab
GS is not going away anywhere soon...
relax... even I have not posted everything in last 7 years... post at the most two threads and do not post anything untill your threads disappear to second page...
just my opinion...
Having a collection in one sticky is a bad idea only in my humble opinion...
Not everything is read by people even those who have good taste in poetry and those who strive for reading good poetry... -- Online Fact - came to this term being a mod couple of years back in a forum much more urdu savvy and where even professional poets used to come... and the writters :)
A poem per thread has a title that tells people what's in there... Just a sticky with titles like "HallaGulla Baig's collection" will get annoying and unattracted after a while.
Normally people only come and say "wah wah" "bahut Khoob" ... etc. and a sticky will end up having multiple wah wah's from similar users :D
Mods should encourage people who have good taste in poetry (such as themselves, self excluded:p) to actually come up with synopsis, context, background or even their own understanding of the piece of poetry being posted... a discussion on a poetry can make this place very lively... :) just like how urdu classes used to be fun when teachers used to explain and ask things regarding a sher ... back in pakistan (for those who have experienced this) ... This forum has a potential of becoming a very good source of spreading knowledge than merely collecting praises..... monotonous to say the least....
