after you get the gamers, their own spot, do the same for the wen people, in beauty.

 

globbing us all together, isn't helping the new format.

 

thanks.

I've had it for today ... I just can't continue to wade through all those game threads.

Wow.

 

I already have a migraine starting up today...  came back to look around some more and I see almost a complete page of game threads.

 

I agree, this is exactly what flooding looks like -- but it's clearly not the fault of those who enjoy posting on the game threads.   The problem is:  they quickly fill up pages and pages of a sub-forum because the respondents only type a word or phrase and then quickly go to another thread and do the same thing, and the forum is overwhelmed with those threads in a matter of minutes.

 

The unintended result:  it essentially shuts down all the other conversations.

 

QVC didn't think this out carefully.  We have a sub-forum for a the relatively inactive topic "Mom to Mom" (no offense to them), yet they've grouped some extremely active categories together.

for sure, I left and came back and see this???? they should have a drop down box to sort through the community chat for viewpoints and click on that only so ad to filter out the gamers.  

I'm done with P.C. Just say what you mean and mean what you say. It's easier.

It's pretty ridiculous like this. No offense to the gamers.

or at least an option to ignore an entire thread.

 

It makes my head hurt just looking at it

There is a topic about this in the Suggestion Box. Why don't you all go over there and add to the thread. I did. Not sure it will help but I did it anyway.
