This is a highly unreliable website for those seeking an accurate rendering of many poems. There is at least one alleged author on this site who is a proven plagiarist, yet the owners of Poemhunter.com do nothing about this matter. They have been contacted on several occasions, but have yet to do anything about this problem.

As an educator, I am appalled at the blatant disregard for both accuracy and honesty in the handling of the works of great as well as unknown authors of poetry. It is with a keen mind and a solid resolve that I display to the world - do not frequent this site, for there is naught but fraudulence and deceit present!

I joined with an account, then entered a poem, and they just left it in pending mode for a whole week.

Contacting the site, they send a generic email to say they will respond, but then don"t. Don't bither with it.

I submitted poems to Poemhunter. Seemed like a good place to keep them all together. Then months down the road one of my poems was deactivated. The poem was truly banal with no profanity and I contacted them to as why. They send me an automatic email saying they had got my request and would get back to me but they never bothered. Seems to me to be unacceptable and arrogant for someone to out of the blue censure another person without having the courage to explain why they were doing so.

I went on Poemhunter and submitted some poems, Seemed like a good place to keep them all together. And then without explanation, they deactivated one of my poems. It contained no profanity and was really fairly innocent and I asked them why it was deactivated. I was curious but no one ever bothered to reply.

If someone is censuring someone's work they should at least have the courage and decency to explain why.

Agreed. A site for dummy poet's, plagiarizers, wannabe's and their "reviewers". Skip this site entirely except for the actual historic poet's who are highlighted here who are real poet's. However unfortunately they get mixed in with the wannabe's and plagiarizers. How does this site remain on the internet? I guess anything can be on the internet but please don't undermine the real poet's by putting them on this site. It takes away from their integrity and work.
