These posts always seem to get nasty.  If I want to know what a former host is doing I can check out twitter, facebook, or just do a search.  Re-hashing what someone thinks are "glory days" is nothing but an argument waiting to happen.  Can't we concentrate on the here and now?  As many have been discussing, the ugly is getting old.

Wherever there is someone trying to stir the fish, there are always fish ready to take the bait.

True, I don't know why people get so worked up about it.  Those who want to comment should do so in a respectful manner or stay out of the conversation.

I agree.  That poster needs to stop posting on that person.  There is nothing to be gained by it.

Why are people always trying to control what is posted here? If you don't want to read about former hosts, scroll on by.

 

There are people who will regularly attack anyone who starts a thread they think shouldn't be here.....certain celebrities should be off-limits....according to them....and so on......

 

I don't get it. No one has to be here, no one has to read certain threads........

 

If I see a thread about something that doesn't interest me, I just don't read it......PROBLEM SOLVED.

Re: No more former host posts

As long as rules are being followed, @JONNYSBRO or any other poster is free to post.  This board belongs to QVC and no one else can dictate what is posted.  If you are not interested in a thread, as @YorkieonmyPillow stated, don't open it.

I agree. I cannot control the behavior of others, but I can control my own.

Re: No more former host posts

I'm sorry, I have to agree with @YorkieonmyPillow

 

While I fully know they get out of control, it is not up to me to decide what threads can be started on which topics!

 

If this person wants to post about previous hosts, let them!  No need for others to jump on and get all snarky.  If you have no interest in previous hosts, they STAY off!  They might be started just to rile ya'all up!  Don't take the bait!

 

I do NOT do FB or Twitter, so maybe such topics could be of interest to me!

 

I have zero interest in the Royals, but would NEVER go on a thread to argue with others.

 

 

To each his own.

 

The posts about current hosts in the 'here and the now' can get just as ugly.  Host bashing is a national pastime on these boards sometimes.

Have I missed something ? Has it become mandatory to read posts you don't care about ?

Clearly those threads are baiting. Sit back and she/he gets their entertainment watching the responses...
