Hi Melvin: There appears to be some confusion now about what is religious and what is not since "religion" is not mentioned in the Standards.
If a poster asks for prayers would that be removed now?
If a poster says that they will pray for another poster is that also forbidden now?
I understand about copyrights but it would be helpful to know exactly what we can and cannot say. I can respect the decision but I am honestly a bit leery about what to say
Thank you for your help.

Not sure if this pertains, but there are editions of the Bible which are free of copyright restriction.

Was copyright infringement part of the problem?
I'd like to understand that better as I have posted c&p items on the boards. tia! ![]()

The reason cited for deleting two posts was that the posts "could be deemed as religious." So I don't think it's a copyright problem. Hopefully, Melvin will reply. I, too, read the standards and couldn't find any mention of religion.

Nor is religion mentioned in the "General Terms and Conditions."

@Ruby Laine, I looked back after seeing today's posts and found at least one of her threads was deleted for the reason of "This post has been removed by QVC because it is copyright infringement."

That could be, @AuberriJean. On the thread started today, I must have missed it. I know there was an "inappropriate," "inappropriate information," and "religious."
Maybe the Standards will need reviewed and revised so they are more clear.

They are so inconsistent on what is allowed. What one person can say, another can't. One callout thread to see how a poster is, is allowed yet another call out thread for another poster is deleted. It depends on who you are here.

Wow, I've not noticed that before. I've seen things deleted, but not really understood most of the 'reasoning'.
IT SHOULD NEVER DEPEND WHO YOU ARE, that is outrageous.
I will have to pay more attention to the deletions, and fire back some questions regarding those deletions.
If it's not in the 'rule book stated by QVC herein', it better appear in the rule book soon.

Yes! The Standards need to be more clear!
