Just do not open the threads that are clearly titled forum choices.
Then no worries!
No room here for the "other board" Don't want it here.
People are worried this board will go away, so a few posters are simply making others aware if the forums go poof... they will have another option to stay in touch. One can not control others postings.

Several people have been participants there for years and report never having a problem or knowing of one.
It is not an issue of who can read stuff.....for some it is an issue of who is running the boards. QVC has independent employees running them and liability insurance for hacking and fraud. The other boards have random screen names.
The moderators at Q Friends Forum are identified and have names, one can write a private message to them, or tag them.
Do you REALLY think the QVC MODS use their actual names?
@Drythe It never occurred to me that QVC MODS aren't using their real names. I have no reason to think they aren't.
It is really irrelevant if they are using their real names on the board or not. They are employees collecting a paycheck and accountable to someone for their actions. What accountability has been established on the other boards?
The problem is, there would appear to be no accountability here to those actually using the forums...

It doesn't matter whether they use their real names or not. What I like is that I know nothing about them.
I have a friend who works at a "Call Center" and when she told me her name I couldn't stop laughing. Sometimes I call her by that name and she would just smile.
Another friend worked at a Travel Agency and she didn't like the name they gave her, so after two months she quit.
When someone here says they talked to so and so in Customer Service, I wonder if they know that isn't the person's real name.
If for any reason you want to talk to that same person, the employees know exactly the person you are talking about.

I just registered at the new board and looks very nice. I was member number 1,048. WOW....they have alot of members over there and it was so nice to see familiar faces. Another one registered right after I did, so it seems it keeps growing over at the new site.
I don't post as often as I used to, but I will enjoy posting at both places. I do not do FB. I hope QVC keeps these forums open, but if not, we have another place to go. They have done a wonderful job over there and I, for one, appreciate them doing that for their fellow posters.

All y'all fight over the most ridiculous issues.
I still post here and will continue to do so until when and if the Q shuts it all down.
I am also on the other board but mostly read briefly. I do not have time to spend on both sites.
I do not "lure" others and I do not consider myself "slumming" here or there.
Another round of the same ol' same ol'.
Post where you please and let others do what is right for them.
It is just that simple.

I also joined the new board, for me.....life is about options. I view both boards and it really helps pass the time. I am thrilled, thrilled.... And let me say it again.... Thrilled.... to have options!!! If this board dies, no problem😃😃😃. I have one addition option🤓😺😺😺

I feel exactly the same. 😀 Just so happy and grateful that those wonderful posters set up that new site for all of us to visit with each other.🤗 I hope this QVC Forum is around for many years but in case it's not, the new forum is already exceeding all expectations.😃

They do not take their instructions from the board members, you do not sign their paycheck. My question would be, on the other boards who are the Mods accountable to? What are their instructions?

No, they don't, they take their instructions from those whose income is generated by customers... Like many posting here... As for the other boards, there seems to be a good dose of common sense, reasonably applied rules and an ear to the membership, which does not mean the inmates are in charge of the asylum and neither need that be the case here were there a bit more give and take...
