(Talk about not having a life).<BR /></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>I especially find it very interesting when they stalk someone from one thread to another and the person does not answer their posts and ignores them which I feel is the best thing to do.....When they keep continuing to post additional nasty posts and display bully tactics QVC cuts them off at the pass.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Mob tactics never work because everyone can see right through these people who display openly just how miserable they are, and enjoy spreading their misery everywhere instead of having a life and being adult enough to know, if a subject arises which they won't, like just silently move on.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>It's easy to be a bully when you are in a group that is what is really pitiful. (Misery loves company).<BR /></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Having a respectful healthy productive difference of opinion is one thing, but when it gets real personal and ugly, then there is no excuse for that whatsoever.<BR /></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>When QVC zaps the thread the bullies wonder why.....It is their own nasty mean replies which continue on and on, and turns a happy experience thread into a miserable invasion of a group of bullies, and that is when QVC cuts them off at the pass and removes the thread.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Best way to handle is just ignore and move on. Life is just too short to deal with these bullies and that is how QVC feels too since they remove those type of activities to end the continued bully tactics and disrespect of others.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>If someone chooses to disbelieve something fine no one is forcing anyone to believe against their will, but on the other hand there is no reason why that should make a group of so called adults become a group of bullies.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Bottom line is bullying accomplishes only one thing and that is to force QVC to put an end to the thread to stop that type of immature highly unacceptable behavior.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Take care my friend, and I hope to see you more often on the forums.<BR /></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG><BR /></STRONG></P> <P> </P> <P> </P> Thu, 29 Jan 2015 05:49:56 GMT adoreqvc 2015-01-29T05:49:56Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637434#M87580 <P>going to STOP bashing the hosts???? I was taught as a child that "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything." Why do some find it necessary to slam and insult hosts for just being themselves. They are people who have feelings and they are all very good at what they do. For those people who find it necessary to say these things...would you say it to their face's or do you need a computer to hind behind?</P> Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:51:07 GMT https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637434#M87580 Love4cats 2015-01-27T19:51:07Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637437#M87581 <P>Unfortunately, I don't think it will ever stop.

The networks put the host in a position to be critiqued and opinions simply aren't going to be 100% positive for anything or anyone -- not even God. I wish some would choose their words more carefully, but not everyone has the vocabulary to do that. Then there are those, who in some attempt to be cute and funny, come across as rude and offensive. Others simply seem like they are on a mission to use harsh language. In fairness, I could say something to the same effect about those who express their fondness for a host, and sometimes go overboard with their gushing. </P> <P> </P> Tue, 27 Jan 2015 20:04:30 GMT https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637442#M87582 Trix 2015-01-27T20:04:30Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637447#M87583 <P>When everyone agrees with everyone else.</P> Tue, 27 Jan 2015 20:06:11 GMT https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637447#M87583 brewhaha 2015-01-27T20:06:11Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637452#M87584 <P>I've noticed that there seems to be a very vocal League of David Venable Bashers.

However, we all know, that a lot of products would sell no matter who the host is. If a particular host's on air behavior turns away customers, QVC needs to know that so they can properly evaluate that employee. For that reason, I have no problem posting my opinions about a particular host's on air behavior. </P> <P>I do agree though that some of the posts here go beyond true issues. There is a significant difference between criticizing David for the amount of vacation time he takes (yes there have been a few posts about that) versus his on air behavior that some may believe is juvenile &amp; causes them to switch the channel. </P> <P>It is also interesting to me that the people who say that if we don't have anything good to say then we should stay quiet are the ones who are, in fact, criticizing those of us who just want a chance to express our opinion. You are certainly entitled to your opinion as are we all. </P> <P> </P> Tue, 27 Jan 2015 20:48:24 GMT https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637491#M87592 scotnovel 2015-01-27T20:48:24Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/When-are-poster-s-on-ALL-the-forums/m-p/1637496#M87593 <P>I've always wondered why the Q allows these boards in the first place.
