It's a cruel world and this is a private board.  Freedom of Speech does not apply.

Free speech doesn't apply to a private board.  They make the rules which are clearly stated.  If a subject is controversial or if a thread becomes contentious it is removed.

I find it annoying to be reading a thread and keep finding this post was removed.  It is almost like reading a book and finding someone tore some pages out.

These are QVC's boards and QVC's rules.  We can like them or move on.

 

The guidelines we all agree to are stated.  Granted some of them are open to interpretation and some things that are deleted don't make sense to me and some things that are left don't make sense.

 

But the fact of the matter is, the guidelines do state that you aren't allowed to promote other sites, no coupon codes are tolerated and we can't post about anything political.

 

Debates by nature are political.  Period.  That means they can't be discussed.

The GOVERNMENT doesn't have the right to take away your freedom of speech.

 

This is a PRIVATELY owned and operated board.

 

No government entity involved.

 

Their sandbox, their rules.

 

Don't like it?

 

There is a plethora of other boards out there, that might be more to your liking, or you can always create one of your very own, which then can be run exactly the way that yu want it to be.

You need to educate yourself on the first ammendment. It only applies to Government limiting speech.

I wish they'd show the name of the person that got edited, my own included.

It does. The problem is that most people don't actually understand the first amendment or what freedom of speech means.
