Re: Where Have All the Posters Gone?????

I wish they would go back to old format. It was more interesting. I do not mind that QVC edits the boards a bit. I was tired of the host bashing to the extreme.

Yes. I read that to "break habits" it takes 30-45 as well. ;-)

I can only speak for myself....I've been reading on another medical website for the past week.

As soon as I get through reading all I can about this new treatment, I will be back like normal.

I've popped in a couple of times....but have a few more days of research to read about !!

I hope it's a temporary thing, and most people will come back to the forums like before..I miss it here.

The point I would make is that some will choose not to adapt to the ___________ changes affected by Lithium, the company a poster mentioned on this thread. Having worked my entire life in a professional position and atmosphere, I can honestly say I've never been confronted with anything relative to a new program or changes to an existing program that have failed as bad as this one. The issues abounding here are the kind that many "will not get over." These people will sadly just disappear. I'm still on the fence. My screen continues to jump as I compose a response; I still have text over text; the no-brainer former forum has given way to what amounts to a battle for many. This has taken the fun factor out of the experience on these forums for many.

The one thing I really, really don't understand is this: for those of us who do things the old fashioned way, we head for the Q's home page FIRST. When we do so, before clicking on "Blogs & Forums," we're getting an eyeful of TSV and a bunch of other stuff to spend our bucks on. If we chose to no longer participate, even if it's just 100 people, that's 100 less pair of eyes scanning that home page. Not good marketing.

I'm trying, but I admit that I still don't like it at all. I know the Q needed to address some things, but this change was drastic, and for me, not in a good way.

Way too much scrolling to find what I am looking for. I get frustrated and just leave.

I'll keep trying, but not sure how long I will hold out.

I agree, I am heartbroken over this change. I loved looking at these boards all day now I can't even find them. I just now found out how to post i hope this goes through. LOL Miss you guys and all the tips and talk.

This is the first time I have been back since QVC adopted this ridiculous Beauty Banter format, making it hard to get in touch with our friends, making it terribly difficult to look back on our ptrevious posts and just generally taking the fun out of it. I came back today to look for a kitchen item and looked over here to see if anything had changed. NOPE! Rotten as it was before.

That's why all of the posters are gone, you can thank QVC for that!
