Question re reporting

dulwich — Sat, 28 Apr 2018 01:50:38 GMT

Just noticed at side of threads wording that you can report inappropriate content of given thread. How does this work - who is it reported to? just wondering and how is it decided - is the thread just closed?

You report what you think is inappropriate and the mods will look at it and decide if they agree. They will not notify you. This feature has always been there.

Here are the Community Standards for Participation.

This outlines what is and isn't appropriate. Of course the mods each use their discretion and make the final call as they see fit.

In my opinion the mods have gotten too aggressive censoring political points of view! This is America and one should be allowed to say negative things about the polictial parties. Our Founding Fathers would find it deplorable what is going on by these moderators.

@Reever LoL, you should,probably read the post right before yours that states the standards you agreed to when you registered to post. QVC owns this message board, not the Founding Fathers.

@Reever, put your soapbox away.

We participate in a 'highly structured, moderated' conversation here.

There are other places to go to have the kind of conversations you want.

@Reever I have to disagree with you on this one, because Political and religous conversations anywhere, will start an argument. There are plenty of other boards to vent on.

Yes, exactly. The Community Standards clearly state which subjects are not allowed. It's been that way for years.

QVC owns these forums and has the right to run them however they want. It has nothing at all to do with the Founding Fathers. Yes, we can express our political views, just not here. The Founding Fathers would not disagree with that. We have the right to agree to the forums and post here, or not. Freedom of choice..

@Reever- LOL! The Founding Fathers might find a lot of things deplorable today, but how QVC runs its forums is probably not one of them!

This is a privately owned, shopping channel board, with rules. As others have pointed out, there are plenty of other forums and platforms to express political views.

You do have the right to say anything you want about political parties, just not on QVC forums. Their house, their rules!

i highly doubt our founding fathers would be concerned about a shopping networks forums.

@Reever. All it does on a board like this is create arguments and bad feelings. It would be chaos. There are other places for political discussion. I dont find it deplorable at all.

LOL.....you know what they say, Opinions are like......uh........noses........everyone's got one. Not all opinions are relevent in a given situation, such as this one. Their company, their rules. If you don't like it, you can take your ball and slink away home dejected.

Around 2000 I cut my teeth on a very aggressive Board that tolerated most everything. I had no idea, I simply liked the subjects (politics, religion, ethics, etc.) and dove right in. I had no idea what I got myself into. I tend to be polite and don't call anyone names but am strong with my opinions and will source facts from legitimate sources to support them. The more aggressive posters would do some despicable things because many had the ability to hack, to find IP addresses, to find out who you are and where you lived. One poster (female) was tracked down to her city, her Boutique business was found and a threatening note was left by her board nemisis. (Authorities were notified).

I was lucky, someone I made angry only hacked a special page I had and I could take it down.... but from that moment on I realized the depth of some of the anger on boards out there and have tried to be very careful what I say and how I say it.... I stayed on there for years but it was a crash course for every board I've gone to since.

This board is very civilized and the posters are kind and compassionate. I personally have no problem with the moderation. I think it's made these boards a decent place. JMHO
