I'm not entirely sure why you brought that up, anyhow.
If you would like to discuss which posts are appropriate, and which are not, then it must be discussed why posts are posted in the first place.
A piece of writing can have many purposes, and if it is in the literary section, you are correct, a critique is warranted.
But please always ask yourself one question whenever you log into YWS.
Why do people want to write. NOT why does this person want to be a writer. And CERTAINLY NOT why does this person want to be a member of TYWS.
I think the belief of all 'writers' is that if you are to be successful, then you must believe that writing is NOT a natural god-given gift. However, to utilize writing as a tool, and become excited at the world that tool can open, there is much more to understand, explore, and discover than simply spelling words correctly and using appropriate grammer.
