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.


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.


 

@YorkieonmyPillow - I agree! There are only four forums I regularly visit because I know I'm not going to be interested in the other topics, and when there are threads posted in any forum I visit where the subject or author makes me think I'm not going to want to click through, I skip them and move on. It's really quite simple to do.  Smiley Wink

Re: No more former host posts

i have no problem seeing posts about former hosts and what they are doing.

i am not sure why people open them and then POST on them if they dont care or dont like the poster (for whatever reason.)

 

please have some restraint in what you open and what you have to say, especially if the post does no one any harm!

 

i rarely see a "bad" former host thread until OTHERS come in to ruin it.

Love the posts about past hosts.  It is a part of Q's history. Those of us that have shopped with Q from the beginning have some kind of wierd loyalty and that is why we are still here.

Don’t take the bait.

I find the threads entertaining to see the same people get riled up time and time again like they’ve got nothing better to do.

They love being riled up about anything and spew hate.

Just like this post is bait.

@GenXmuse...notice how the OP of the LR threads rarely comments or responds to anyone. Lots of drama. Probably their favorite soap opera was canceled and this is a good substitute...

Re: No more former host posts

@brandiwineThe problem lies with the nasty responses.  They can't seem to control their negativity.  Pretty simple ... don't like the topic, don't read it and move on. 

 

You don't get to set rules or boundaries as to the topics.

Re: No more former host posts

Oh for heaven sake.  I do not agree with this at all.  

 

I cannot believe that posters feel because they themselves find a subject disagreeable, no one should be allowed to discuss it.  I have an idea.  How about if we all act like adults and not participate in threads that bother us. 

 

I'm not talking about a difference of opinions, I"m talking about subject matters one finds offensive, etc.  Just scroll past.

 

We all know there is one poster who starts a lot of threads about a certain past host.  That poster never causes the threads to turn nasty.  It is always, 100% of the time other posters who have a problem with the thread.  They are on every single thread about that host, joining right in the thread and then complaining that the threads shouldn't be allowed. 

 

I don't get it.  If I see a thread about something that doesn't interest me, I move along.  I don't come into the thread and tell people they shouldn't be allowed to post about it.

Re: No more former host posts

I don't understand why any poster wants to and thinks they can control these forums. What's up with that?

If no one responded, there would be no drama.
