wookie...................if you want to lay the ax to the Billy Graham thread why are you stopping there..........take the ax to the condolence threads, there is mention of god and prayers in those.........and don't stop there, how about when someone here posts they are going through an illness or surgery.........same deal as the condolence threads, people offer prayers.........I don't hear you mentioning those threads, not one mention of them........just this one with Billy Grahams name involved......................................raven

Raven, I layed out my objection very clearly. And to answer another poster, no I won't contact the social team. They are reading this thread. I do not believe Qvc is aware of the extent of uneven banning and moderation of its boards. I am hoping they read these threads and take note.

They are aware.

Oh stop the presses.

Geez Louise.

Has a Birthday.

And people can't deal with that? Call QVC?

HOW PETTY.

if everyone was able to ban posters they deem offensive, there would be no more posters left.

Are political discussions allowed?

Threads are routinely removed when they are political in nature, but many political POSTS that are buried in benign threads are not removed unless someone hits abuse.

Since Gretta Garbled arrived on the scene, she has infiltrated every thread with her political agenda, but I don't think the OP minds that one bit.

You mean she posts her views, much like many others do?

Politics are not allowed here. You seem to live in a world of double standards.

You misunderstood my response. Your right, politics isn't allowed, but you chime in when you want. So, if I live in a world of double standards, so do you, and a whole lot of other posters.

OK, fair enough wookie, but then why question the BG birthday thread? I haven't even read it.

My problem doesn't lie with the BG thread, but rather with the fact GJ, and most likey Sunala, were moved to AF because their threads were considered religious in nature.

Re: Has anyone contacted QVC about the uneven moderation here?

Offering birthday prayers to a religious figure and exchanging thoughts about religion where nobody is fighting or carrying on is not the same as an ongoing weekly religious thread that was moved to Among Friends. The BG thread will eventually fall down to the bottom and unless someone resurrects it it will be over and done with.

If you object to the religious exchange on BG thread then hit abuse and leave it at that. JMO

raven, I hope you don't mind I edited out the name at the front of this because I want to direct my thoughts to you without the other distraction.

This is just ONE of the reasons I respect you so much. You are incredibly fair and unbiased. One of the 2 or 3 most unbiased people here.

scottie............as you know I am NOT a religious person and no where on that thread will you see my nick.......but that doesn't mean others can't wish the man a happy birthday in the manner they choose.......and the fact I don't go near the thread means I'm not putting myself in a situation I may not like..........it's pretty much that simple...................................raven

the BIG difference may lie in the fact, the other two threads you mentioned were weekly or daily threads..........this man has a birthday ONE TIME a year........and probably not many more.........you can fight this battle again in 364 days..........................................raven

I'm not going to hit inappropriate, because I think that button is abused. And by the way, Sunala's thread was peaceful. Once in a while Heiress harrassed posters there, but it happened very infrequently.I don't recall any fighting on GJ'S Posts either. People seemed to enjoy her posts, because they were friendly, and uplifting.

The frequency shouldn't matter if it's against standards.
