I can sign in and out, but sometimes I get black boxes covering parts of posts, like they were redacted. Only happens on Q forums and on my tablet.

@occasionalrain I’ve never seen that. Was surprised.

If I shut down, power off, my tablet and restart, the black boxes disappear.

@Katcat1 I really like it! You cannot depend on QVC to leave these forums up. You watch after Christmas Poof!

@Venezia Are you aware if you click on your avatar you will get a drop down menu that says log out and it will log you out?? That is how most forums are.

@BalletBabe - I am aware of the drop-down menu. It does not work for me. It hasn't worked for probably two months or more, ever since they did something to the Q's website (not just the forums) and caused numerous glitches. None of which are being fixed.

I've said in another post that I can sign out on my iPad, but I cannot sign out on my desktop, using MS Edge. I don't use other browsers, so I can't comment on those.

And for a while, because I was permanently signed in to the forums, I could also just click on my wishlist, and then my order status and get straight into my account without further signing in. Now that is a security issue. (Although they seem to have fixed that issue at least.)

@Venezia Might it have something to do with your preferences or settings on your desktop? There are so many more settings than on a tablet. I don't know; I'm just guessing.

I am not damaged by any of this. It's working out quite well staying here.

I wasn't interested in going to a forum that is moderated by fellow posters.

I'm sure that most forums are moderated as mentioned above--and it's probably quite unique that QVC has their customer service reps doing the monitoring here. But I was always comfortable with that. It's what they were paid to do.

No damage done. I decided if they closed these forums I wouldn't go to one of the new one talked about here.

@Lucky Charm

I feel the most important aspect of a healthy board is good moderators performing good moderation. I'm not sure how a board will function when moderators are also active participants.

When I saw the call asking for moderators, I initially thought about throwing my hat in the ring. With my sleep issues, I could take the late night shift 😄. I am confident I could do a good job because to me adhering to guidelines, honesty and fairness are paramount to a board's success.

And then I came to my senses.😄😄😄

@magicmoodz

Aww, I always thought you were a really cool poster.

It would be a good job for someone who is aloof to all the bull that goes on here.

It would be like me monitoring a sports related forum. Don't care who's winning or losing. I've got no dog in the race.....

@Lucky Charm

Awww, thank you for the compliment--such a day brightener.

I have long admired you. I respect your veganism, your keen sense of interior design (do we own the same silver clam shell lamp?😄) and we share a love for water. Your water is much, much larger than mine but still I feel blessed to live by water--it speaks to my soul.

@Katcat1 - When the Q forums close permanently in 2022, hopefully you will reconsider joining the Proboards. Would love to have you over there in the future.

@San Antonio Gal What is your proof that QVC will close permanently in 2022?

I can’t help but wonder if Q’s decision came not from the dozens of complaints (how many people do you think actually emailed corporate?), but from the amount of people that they could clearly see moving to the new ProBoards site. Add to that, the Facebook news that coincided with their announcement - and so quickly commented on here. Guess we don’t know the real reason for their change of heart - and therefore can’t trust them not to reconsider yet again.
Add to that the number of order cancellations. Some were because of the current delivery problems, but others were definitely because of the forum closing announcement.

You're right--we'll never know.
I thought you couldn't cancel an order after placing one. I read that all the time. Which is it? Q will let you cancel an order or they won't? I read the customer service section A LOT and this seems to be a major complaint of many. @geezerette

Maybe this is just hyberbole because of bad feelings some have.
I think they give you a finite time usually...not sure that is on every item though?
