There are some posters that use this forum to rant and complain about things that have nothing to do with shopping. Why aren't they using other social platforms like facebook or twitter? These bizarre posts are constantly bumped by some others that want to perpetuate the negativity and dominate the forum. There are many well intended QVC shoppers who just want to shop and exchange info about shopping. I appreciate your swift action to delete all the Marie Osmond rants about her religion. Why not do the same for Susan Graver, Joan Rivers and Lisa Robertson? Please keep up the good work, and do more to improve our shopping experience. Thank You!
It will never happen nor should it!!
Well, that's what losers say when they can't meet their objectives. Gotta keep trying and I will!
I can understand not wanting to get mixed up in a bunch of negativity. But trust me, I've seen a forum where ANYTHING that's even slightly negative, even if it's not a verbal attack against anyone, is jumped on and/or deleted. Those kinds of forums will become inactive and stall in time, except for a few of the same posters who post the same things over and over again. And then, there's the forums where the moderators do nothing, everyone runs wild and that forum becomes inactive because people get chased.
I think the QVC moderators here try to strike a balance where people can still rant and air their opinions, but to where things don't get too out of hand. Trust me, a forum with no negativity of any kind is just as bad as a forum with nothing but negativity. Sometimes negativity, or perhaps I should criticisms, gives both the vendors and the community members a chance to grow.
This forum is vibrant enough with a wide range of topics and opinions. Nothing good seems to result from these bizzare rants. Disruptions. Anger. Hostility. One day is good. Set a time limit, then shut it down or move it to viewpoints.
I see.
Well, don't know what to tell you. I can understand where you're coming from, but negativity doesn't take a day off. The moderators are people, too, and I think it would be too much for them to sift through all these topics to find only the weird threads and move them to a different place. Unless QVC has a huge moderation staff.
But anyway, at least there is an ignore button. I've seen forums that don't have that feature......It's not pretty. And so far, at least today, I haven't seem any bizarre threads. I've seen people talk about their personal problems, but so far, no weird threads. I think the good might outweigh the bad. But if it's still bothering you, perhaps the best thing might be to take a break from the QVC forums a few days, then come back to talk. Trust me, I may be new here, but I've seen forums WAY worse than this.
