Dear Eliot, I wonder why When members post their rhymes You gave us all those choices how To give some feedback every time Like it, love it, leave a comment, too Even click on “thumbs down” The best is when a reader is moved To send it all around… Or when it’s picked “The Daily” It feels like quite a treat   when someone shines a “Sun” that Feels marvelously sweet! We poets see who likes our writes Who sends them all around But just what is the purpose for Those mean, faceless “thumbs down”?

I wonder why the "thumbs down"?

When the "thumbs down" choice was added, I remember some grumbling & questioning about it. What is its purpose? It's not constructive or helpful. I just started noticing, and I don't like it.
