Why doesn't the Gamers Forum appear all the time under the Forums list? Why do I have to sign in before it appears????? I'm requesting it be listed and shown 24/7. Thanks.

I think eventually it will be. Everyone was so upset over the games being here I think they took it wrong and hid the forum.

AND QVC, why all the secrecy? Why isn't the Forum open to everyone? Why do posters have to request they be given "permission for admittance" on Gamers? We welcome all!

Hi @MyNicName

I am sorry it appears we are trying to be secretive about the GAMERS category. We are happy to add anyone who wants to be added to the access for this specific category, all are welcome to play.

With the new forums we no longer have the ability to filter the activity of a particular category from those who do not want to see the particular posts from that category. This is how we had Gamers setup in the past, the heavy activity from the small number of Gamers was only impacted by individuals who visited that specific category. In the current forums the activity would be seen in many places.

Those who post in the Gamers category post a lot and it can quickly take over a page and start to look like SPAM. On day one in the new forums the game posts lived in Community Chat and so many became angry with the volume of posts that began to be all about games.

In order to give Gamers a home that would not negatively impact the rest of the Community we needed to create a category that is only visible to those members who wish to play. It is not the ideal solution, but it does give Gamers a home and has ended the posts complaining about moving Gamers to their own home.

We are continuing to review a better solution.

Hi @oceanbreezy,

I added your account to the list of people who can see the Gamers category. Please note it is listed under Community Chat in the left navigation.

Have fun!

Keyai,

Thanks for your quick response!

Keyai, your explanation for why the Gamers forum can't be seen makes perfect sense. I couldn't understand why it wasn't shown. I do look at the main Forum page sometimes and wouldn't want all the Gamers posts taking up all the space. Thanks for explaining this to us.
