Not sure at all about the "many many" part.
I think the majority of frequent posters are willing and able to just not click on a topic they don't want to read about; topics that are all over the internet and the nightly news regardless, and which people would see whether they were in these forums or not - but I don't imagine those who don't even want to see a TOPIC they find distressing also call or write to their local news station or newspaper and tell TPTB that they don't want those stories aired untill 11 pm or placed on the last page of the newspaper. They just want QVC to do what they know is completely unrealistic for media in our Big Kid World to do - or want to do.
If you don't want to read a thread that you know by the title will distress you, DON'T READ IT. Asking QVC to quarantine specific types of topics (and who decides what belongs where?) is assuming, and treating, ALL of its posters like delicate flowers, whether they are, or want to be, or not.
What I see are people posting such threads to get attention - any kind of attention, to be "first" with the latest cheezy gossip or "news", the gorier the better. As others have said, it tells you more about the poster than you care to know. Not my thing, but it's simple to ignore. No one's going to have a complete breakdown because they saw a thread title on the QVC forums that said the same thing as the nightly news - even if they claim they will.
