Please explain how your snipkus are any less "spam" than the "Slurp-puppet" poem.

Why do you lie so much, Donkey?

"Slurp-puppet" has new lines added all the time.

It's already book length -- and will eventually be published as "The Shadowville Mythos".

You didn't explain whether you meant:
1) 'the "Slurp-puppet" poem' as you were posting it last fall; or
2) 'the "Slurp-puppet" poem' as you are posting it today.

Since in order to answer you I have to use one of those interpretations, I'll use (2).

The snipkus are not 'less spam' than the "Slurp-puppet poem," because neither are spam -- zero spam -- and 'less than zero spam' is meaningless.

Why are they both zero spam? Because they stay on their own threads. They are not being shoved into the faces of group readers who are trying to read and talk about something else. The only people who ever come face-to face with either are people who want to read them.

There's no law or 'group rule' here about staying in one's own thread, but I'd call it a rule of common courtesy or decent human behavior. As you know, I analogize social media to a neighborhood and the other people to one's neighbors; and the first and most important rule to living in a neighborhood is that of Robert Frost:

"Good fences make good neighbors" - Mending Wall

About the Snipku being a valid poetry form, I think Zod nailed it when he saw the connection with types of Dadaist art and poetry:

Agreed.

However, I'll assume that you considered "Slurp-puppet" to be spam when it appears in multiple threads.

My point is that a dozen *different* snipku threads = a dozen appearances of "Slurp-puppet" in multiple threads.

Both are forms of troll poetry (poetry designed to troll a specific target). And just as your snipkus change from thread to thread, "Slurp-puppet" changes from update to update.

For sure, when it began appearing in my threads (usually, whenever Will
replied to one.

> My point is that a dozen *different* snipku threads = a dozen appearances of "Slurp-puppet" in multiple threads.

I'd say they're more different than similar.


> Both are forms of troll poetry (poetry designed to troll a specific target).

No; I'll compose a snipku in response to a post from anyone. It isn't
the they're all directed at any one person, or that any person keeps
getting them.

> And just as your snipkus change from thread to thread, "Slurp-puppet" changes from update to update.

"Slurp-puppet" kept getting longer, but the changes were an increasingly
smaller percentage of each post. It was mainly the same poem, and
increasingly (by the above logic) the exact same poem, with every post.

In contrast, the snipkus are not changes to *a* poem -- each one is a
different poem. That's the same trouble I have with PJ Ross over the
PPB: posts -- he sees them as all part of the same 'spam,' when in fact
they're all different posts. You're like Emily Dickinson, looking at the
snow and seeing an "it", when in fact every snowflake (like every
snipku) is unique unto itself.

Creepy Mike's "slurp-puppet" posts are spam, because they're
substantively identical, NaziDunce.

Nobody imagines that your attempts at snipku are spam, NaziDunce.
They're moronic, but they're not spam.

But the posts in which you append an URL to the snipku may be spam,
NaziDunce, because they may be "substatively identical". I'd need a
second expert opinion before making my mind up.

Your spam is "substantively identical" because it "advertises the same
service", NaziDunce.

The only element that varies is the clickbait that precedes the link to
your commercial kooksite, NaziDunce.

You've been spamming links to your commercial kooksite in the hope of
selling your plagiarised books for many years, NaziDunce. Have you sold
any yet?

I haven't seen one from you that didn't constitute a personal attack on the original poster.

If an additional verse has been added, it has been changed. The diminishing percentage to which it has been changed (due to its increasing length) does not negate the change.

In theory. If you had created snipkus that commented on a general topic, I would agree. But when every snipku exists only to attack another AAPC member, they become interchangeable.

No, almost all of the poetry George Dance posts is classic public domain work, some obscure or completely forgotten.

Yes, George Dance sure did nailed it-- nailed his toe to the floor. Any new worthy poets coming here would look at Gfeorge Dance's snipkus and think he was merely a lowly troll of the worst kind that would twist their own words against them if they dare criticize his golden boy for his trolling and spamming. I tried warning people that what they do in their fighting gives people an insight of their hidden faces. If he did this over in RAP, everyone would abandon him. You fools lost a chance for new members, your loss not mine-- I love rubbing your noses in it.

This "so-called poetry group" produces a monthly online magazine of original poems as well as a "Year's Best" print collection.

If you've been excluded from the group, it's because you've refused repeated requests to cut down on the number of your spam/slurp/necro posts.

When you refuse to take the wishes of a group's members into consideration, you end up... in Donkeyville.

Look at you, Senetto.

You're so slobberingly obsessive over me you're daydreaming details you know nothing about.

Again, my life, and the lives of my family and friends are simply none of your business.

Think about how crazy you look right now... and back off.

HTH and HAND.

EVIDENCE: Will and his ass sock continuously trolling someone even after all is said and done. And people say these two trolls are innocent, just victims of haters. And what about Will's poetry bigotry (which he condemns MP of but then he, Will, goes and summarily trashes 3 other poets here in a single post)

I believe Mockery and ass monkey are trying to lure PJR back to attack everyone else in the group for them. Nice guys my ass!
The lowest and slimiest sewer sludge that I've seen.

Mockery, you're high on my shit list but still low in my To Do (In) list so I'll get to you at my convenience.
