Get those sub forums back, and fast!

Q, you will be loosing posters (which translates to shoppers) really quickly if you don't get the sub forums back. This is too much to sift through if you just want to converse with people about candles only, or recipes only, or Temp-tations only etc.

Please fix this. And get the stuff posted from the last few weeks back up. Where is it?

Totally agree. These new forums are a mess. If things don't change fast, I don't see myself coming here muchless posting.

Return to the old way RIGHT NOW!

I'm sure it's pointless to say, return to the old way, right now. Companies don't launch a new platform, then return to the old way, as soon as problems develop.

Not only would it cost a fortune, it would be an absurd way to do business.

QVC is under no obligation to provide forums. Of course, it's beneficial for them. But at this point, if the new forums are problematic, I'm sure it would be a easier to shut them down, while glitches are worked out, than go back.

So let's hope it will all be resolved, soon!

Geez I thought it was just me missing the sub forum! I know change is hard, but this is too much work - I don't want to scroll through hundreds of posts looking for a topic. I'll give it a couple of days, but so far it's an unenjoyable experience.

I agree. It is unenjoyable, and I do not want to take any more time with it!

I wanted to check to see if anyone else saw "Jurassic World."

Who wants to have to sift through "Games"???

Bye-Bye!

I don't know what I'm going to do if we don't have a forum like viewpoints. How in the heck are we going to hunt down each other (all of us that loved and participated there) in order to discuss topics of real importance. We need a category for discussing important and newsworthy things. Glad to see that you and some of the others are on this morning!

Yikes!

Handbags disappeared.

Now one has to scroll through hundreds of posts on shoes, jewelry.

This is terriable. I thought they said it would be easier. To want to post for a specfic thing such as Wen or candles it's not easy to find.

I haven't even been here that long and I miss all the people I read and posted with in Viewpoints.

To say this is not an enjoyable experience is a gross understatement. It's downright cumbersome and annoying to locate a topic you are interested in. I'm certainly not going to waste my good time trying to sift through all this nonsense. What a disgrace.

Good grief, yes! What in the world is the rationale for moving to big, general topics only......a change that makes it very difficult to access popular, ongoing discussion topics?

One of my favorite boards was Viewpoinnts.....which is apparently gone.

This print is tiny, unless I adjust font size.

I agree that they should return the subforums back so that we don't spend endless time shifting through it all. it will become a hot mess after a few hours. It isn't organized at all.

Kitty Galore — Mon, 15 Jun 2015 14:35:28 GMT

YES, YES, YES !!!! I agree , bring them back , without them we cannot check in on specific topics as mominohio has posted.

I don't understand why they would eliminate the sub-forums in the first place. Without them, our sense of community is gone.

Plus I think the loss of the sub-categories also messed with my post count. I lost over 600 posts in my post count. Which means I can't look back at those missing posts if I choose to.

Yes, please! This is way too much to sift through. I am all for change and improvement but I do not understand the organization of this. Perhaps a site map or chart would be beneficial.

kzjohnson, I think they announced that post counts would change, as they were only going to go back so far in the old system and move things over. Something to that effect. It makes it hard to tell who has posted more, as it seems all long time posters lost huge numbers of posts.
