I already see a post deleted by a Moderator due to "unkind personal attack", so I imagine that some of the ruckus in the old Viewpoints would not be tolerated much. At least now a poster may get a reason for a disappearing post.

Hi JohnnyEager, I'm just curious. How did you see the post that was deleted and see the reason given? If it was someone else's post that was deleted, how were you able to see it?

I was wondering because I had an instance where someone said something I thought was very "unkind", and when I went back to respond, that post was gone. But I never saw anything showing when or why.... could you enlighten me?

Perhaps, does it really matter? Viewpoints was just a name and there was so much "cross over" that people posted whatever they wanted to say on whatever forum they chose to use. That won't change. The cat fighting wasn't limited to Viewpoints. Once people get accustomed to and comfortable with moving around this new board; I don't think anything will change at all.

@Chrystaltree2, That's been my take on it, too. I don't think the forum title really matters in the scheme of things. It appears they only changed it because of the weird decision to lump all the Gamer threads and some of the older Among Friends threads into the mix.

The main problem as I see it is the odd choices of forums without separate sub-forums, and I hope they'll do something about that in the future.

This is a thread called "Bitter Divorce" in Q Talk. You can search for it in the search box. I opened it up since it sounded interesting and read a comment to the OP, which was sort of sarcastic. I opened the thread up not long after, a the QVC Modertor left a message saying that response was deleted, giving the reason.

Thanks! I was wondering because the one I'm referring to was on one of my threads, but I never saw anything that said it was deleted or why - it was just "not there" anymore. Maybe all the moderators don't leave messages... ?
