          Hi, @gracie2014!   I left that thread to follow up on a few others.  When I returned to it, posts were missing.   I don't know what happened.   Even in the early morning hours, with little activity, we know there are readers out there (by looking at the number of views on a post, for example).    Sometimes I can figure out why my posts vanish, other times I'm puzzled, but I consider all of them to be ephemeral.

          I hope you're feeling better today.    Thinking of you.   Take good care of yourself.❤️

@gracie2014

 

I thought that was odd too.  No one was mentioned by name, and the comments you made weren't anything I thought would keep anyone up at night.  ::shrug::

 

Honestly, I'm glad I had the chance to read them.  If I hadn't, and I had come back to see that "unkind" posts had been deleted, I would've wondered who came there to trash me and what was said...even though that wasn't what happened at all.

@suzyQ3, it will never cease to boggle my mind, reading the posts on this forum in general, how many posters do expect QVC, the hosts and vendors, the forums, the moderators and fellow posters to indeed cater to their every whim. 👹

This is the suggestion box.  People make suggestions here, and it doesn't mean they expect people to cater to their every whim.

 

I'm not sure if I would use a block/ignore feature, but some people would like to have it.  I don't think it's an unreasonable suggestion.

This forum is for suggestions to QVC, but up to now, other posters' opinions of the suggestions have rarely been any issue. We are entitled to give them :-)

 

If you read across all of QVC's forums, you will see that in many of them (including this one) posters do post as if they feel that QVC, or fellow posters, or even the nation, should indeed feel exactly as they do, want what they want and want eliminated what they want eliminated.

 

Is every post like this? No. Are many posts like this? Yes. Daily. In the Suggestion forum and elsewhere.

 

There is certainly a school of thought periodically expressed here that no one should ever say a negative word about anyone's suggestion, ever. So far, as I said previously, QVC agrees that this should not be the case.

@mistriTsquirrel I found it disturbing because no unkind remarks were made...not trying to be confrontive...but just wish they would send a message to whoever posted the unkind remark...and explain to the three of us what was unkind...I am clueless.. Hope all is well with you And @dooBdoo.

          Hi, @gracie2014!   Glad to see you posting today!    I'm sorry you're upset.    Asking here about deleted remarks usually doesn't generate answers from the moderators, and in some cases they consider it to be "challenging moderation" and remove the comments.    One option:   you can send an email message to the QVC Social Team with the address they post for us, QVCSocialTeam@qvc.com.    Explain your concerns and also be sure to tell them exactly which thread and posts you reference so they can look them up.   

          When they "move" a post it actually is relocated to a part of the site only accessible by the moderators -- they can review the "moved" posts and give you a better understanding of what occurred.    I've even seen them restore posts removed in error.    They're extremely helpful, and I think they're doing a good job under complicated circumstances on a public forum that represents a big corporation.   I, personally, am not requesting an explanation...  as I said, my preference is to consider posts temporary and I'd rather move forward.    But I understand why a followup helps, since it allows us to know what not to do the next time around.   I hope that helps!   Take good care of yourself, and I hope you're feeling better and stronger.❤️

@dooBdoo Thanks, I guess that is what I was getting at...if you don't know what the problem is...one might repeat it..Right now I have bigger fish to fry....was just puzzled.

For those of you who are not in favor of this (and apparently it cannot be supported anyway) and are telling others to be a grown up and just ignore  posts you don't like .... couldn't you have done the same to this thread?  It's a suggestion box and isn't it up to QVC to determine what to do with the submitted suggestions?  I personally don't feel the need for such feature as I don't respond to posters I could care less about, particularly one, however it's here for a reason.
