This whole thing was just weird, I'm sorry.


@Ladybug724   I didn't leave and I'm a long, long, long time poster.   I doubt many people left.  There's no way I would go to any other forum to see the QVC Community Forum  posts.  I don't even understand why a few posters would go to another site and try to set up an alternative QVC Community Forum site when this one is not closed, has not closed, and has never been closed.  That's what's weird to me.


You realize that the Q announced they'd be closing these forums down, right, @KatieB?  No one just started up the new board out of the blue.

What I still like about this board is most everyone uses a customized enlarged font.  I'm hoping all on the new board will heed my plea to stop using the minuscule default print.

 

I just tried to post this comment on another newer thread here and the entire thread was deleted/removed already.

The fake birth date alternate email was just a suggestion for those overly suspicious individuals. It was not necessary. Actually, that forum is safer and more secure than this one that has more personal  information like access to credit card, banking, name, address...

I also thought you could not cancel an order but when I purchased the polar fleece sheets they said they were in stock ready to ship.  When I went back about two hours later they said "advance order" and there was also a button to cancel order so I did.  Reordered them at Amazon and had them in two days.

You can enlarge the font on the board by using the "Shift" and "+" keys together.

@KatieB Huh? Are you not aware of the events that have transpired within the last few days?

Its kind of like your husband or wife tells you they want a divorce.  You cry and raise such a fuss that they say OK I'll stay.  From then on you are waiting for the guillotine to drop.

Re: The Damage Has Been Done

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.

I missed all of this!  Sorry to ask, but is the forum remaining?  I've been using it since 2005!!

Wow - what a perfect analogy @depglass .  I also think of it as being cheated on and never trusting the cheater again.
