June - My Thoughts

HonnyBrown — Tue, 01 Jul 2014 18:13:07 GMT

This was not only my first June with Wen but my first June with QVC. It was informative, entertaining and sadly enlightening. Sadly.

There were the new posters who came through seeking information. That was to be expected.

There was the quarterly bump of old posts. I still think that’s intentional chaos from webbie’s coworker.

And then there were the select handful of Wenners who went bat nuts! The name-calling, rudeness, hijacking, and just plain ignorance. And you wonder why newbies left and never came back??

Most Wenners were helpful, cordial, and informative, but it’s those few who give a bad name to all of us.

I truly hope you are back to normal in July.

Just my thoughts!

Honny, I think it is a very nice, kindly stated opinion. You didn't bash anyone and if someone thinks you are talking about them directly then maybe they should rethink their own behavior. Thank you for your kindness on this forum.

Ok I thought I was going crazy...I knew this thread disappeared several times!

Thank you, KJ. It would be nice if this forum could remain positive. That's a great way to get new Wenners to come, stay and share.

O/T: After being a longtime BlackBerry user, I went to their support forum and posted my review of my new iPhone. I was treated badly, but nowhere nearly as bad as the actions here.

FLsun, no, it wasn't your imagination. Someone doesn't want to see the truth.

I am new to the forum so to speak... I have been a WEN user since December 2009 and as I have run across many of your other posts HonnyBrown and I respect your opinion and agree with many of your observations...

I am often hesitant to post because I am ""new"" and am not sure that I have earned ""my voice"" but I am an avid reader. I too am glad I made it thru the whirlwind of June and I also wish that the negative posters would practice ""restraint of pen and tongue"" and just remain silent...

cgil - welcome to the wen forum. I know you're new but just keep posting and let wenners & non-wenners get to know you and I'm sure you'll be fine. It's really the one-hit wonders and really low post counts with old registration dates that raise my suspicions.

BG, you could not have said it better: Happy Wenning!

What happened to that thread by the way? A victim of June....

Nicole and cgil, thank you both very much. I hope the Wen Bullies calm down this month.

Not everyone with a low post count or old registration should cause you to raise suspicions.. I love reading all the great info from the boards. But I don't always write. In fact you can see that from my low count. Sometimes in life things happen and you would like to check out the boards everyday but cannot. I would never be rude, I just love all the help that you great people give. That takes time... to write and answer those ? that everyone has.. I just wanted to say Thank you!

that is true...other factors must be considered. I look at posting history as well and the timing of posts and what is actually being said...like I said other factors

welcome to the forum and Happy Wenning!

I agree with you. I have a low post count and an old registration date and I still feel that my opinions should be taken into consideration just like everyone else's opinions. What I have to say is vaild and I think adds to the conversation.

HB, I havent posted to this forum in quite some time, if ever, but I felt compelled to do so this June. I used to be very active in the BE forum. I was shocked at some of the responses that were given. Some of the questions that were asked were questions that I would have asked, but the poster was eaten alive by the responders. I can understand why some posters would not return to the forum.
