I think lyn was essentially trying to make a point with no expectation of board moderators actually posting here and explaining their actions. It is very hard to understand why such measures were taken in the first place and why just here.

Originally, I thought the idea of separate boards for separate vendors was a good one. That way those of us who use or are interested in a product line are able to communicate with like-minded people. Sadly, that was never the case. The "haters" feel it necessary to add their negativity in the manufacturer-specific forums as well.
The way QVC handles the Perricone forum has seemed different when compared to others for some time. People who may have had their curiosity piqued by a recent presentation may come here looking for discussion about the product and find nothing.
QVC, I know you're in business and want to make money. A lack of activity (or at least a perceived lack of activity) in the Perricone forum may be interpreted as a lack of interest in the Perricone line by your customer base, resulting in lost sales.
It may lead potential customers to look for information about Perricone products elsewhere, allowing them to discover such things as discounts and free shipping.
Really poor business judgment on your part, QVC. But thanks for allowing us to share, if only for a brief moment in time.

I'm so tired of the posts being deleted I don't understand the rational for deleting them.

The vast majority of QVC customers probably don't even know there is a Perricone or any forum and for those who do know, I doubt that very many make a puchasing decision based on the number of entries on the forum. I have shopped QVC since the beginning and never logged on to the forum until last year.

I don't use perricone products but I do check out the forum on QVC and that is how I found about the new No whatever whatever products, lol, which I now AM planning on trying after reading about them here. So the forums ARE useful to some of us that like to read about Perricone products but may or may not use them.
I think it is ridiculous that they delete them- Lauar Geller and Mally's forum often have hardly any traffic on them (many of the threads have only a few responses to them!!) but they aren't deleting their posts!

Don't know (can't know) if that's accurate or not (your assumption about the "vast majority" of QVC customers), but I do know that I made a number of first-time purchase decisions for several Perricone products based on posts here on this thread.
If those posts had been deleted by the moderators, I probably wouldn't be using at least three, maybe four of the Perricone products I now consider part of my ongoing regimen and that I purchase on a regular basis.
As I've said before, I consider this thread a great library of information about the Perricone brand -- and when it's categorically chopped by the Moderators in an aggressive manner (more aggressive than for other brands) it begs the question: WHY?
