No vote, ( I stand with Pugilist)

I ask all who are my friends here at Neopoet not to rate my poems with the five star system. Let your comment be your rating. I also want to ask everyone else in the community to do the same as far as rating my poems. I came to this site to learn not to join a contest. From this moment on I will  not rate poems with the "Star" system. I will leave honest critics that will reflect what I actually thought of the poem, and I expect the same treatment from everyone else.
I have learned a lot since coming here and expect to continue learning, that will only happen through your constructive honest criticism.
Thanks to Jonathan for leading by example.

I hope that no one is offended by this, it is a stand I must take to better my crappie Poetry!

Thanks to all,
Eddie
