Why is it that this forum is so closely watched for unacceptable comments and the review section on products is not? There is a review on squirrel brand nuts ruby royale that is totally unacceptable and they leave it up, it is not a review. Never have tried this brand so I was curious to read the comments and I found one comment in particular to be nasty to others. Not right! Please take it down. 😬

My problem is that there are 29 reviews - they are overwhelmingly positive, by the way - and they were all posted in the last three days. Yes, the reviewer may have purchased Ruby Royale before and just gotten around to writing a review. But, it seems unlikely. I'd rather see reviews by verified purchasers.

Well, I had to go read it. She sounds about like a nut herself.

you can click on a button that says the review is not helpful AND you can send a report via another button that is on the review. that may help speed things along.

Latrice Royale is a very famous drag queen from RuPaul's Drag Race. Her fans would recognize one of the catchphrases she used during her season and would find it amusing. In fact, it's probably a key reason she was asked to collaborate on the mix. If you don't watch the show, you weren't the intended audience for the joke or the review. Though I'm sure you're still welcome to buy the nuts.

@GAC65 I think this forum counts a lot on posters themselves reporting unacceptable posts.

@GAC65. Reviews and board comments are monitored by two different entities using two different sets of standards. It's like comparing apples and bananas. One has nothing to do with the other.

Well you now have me curious to see what the fuss is all about with this review.

What is the item number, please?

@GAC65

I have been around here, like, forever, and I have never heard the words used in the title of this thread.

Community Forum Police?

And here all these years I thought words like "Monitors/Moderators". Guess I am way, way off.

And, I thought it was about Posters who always comment negatively about what other Posters say...

I am always suspicious of reviews that are very negative, and the reviewer just joined that day. I always assume it's a competitor or someone with an ax to grind ... IF all the other reviews are pretty positive.

I'm an avid reader of mystery novels .... and am always looking for the ulterior motive!

Nosey me had to go and read the reviews for myself. IMHO a couple of the so called reviews been on the boards the thread would have been shut down or at the very least the comments deleted. Most were very supportive of the presenter. QVC sure opened a can of nuts!

It must be gone now. I read through them all and see lots of references to a nasty one but no actual nasty one.

I think its interesting there were so many threads about those nuts if I'm reading this correctly.

I had to leave so I did not see the others but the one I did see had terrible comments about Latrice.

Kachina624 — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 02:32:20 GMT

I'm just surprised good old conservative QVC would dive into this controversy and allow such a presenter. A good many of us had no idea who Latrice was, nor did we care.

conservative QVC?.......never considered them conservative......
