SPURT!! I've been looking for you all day... I see some of the older updates made the cut, but nothing very recent... Makes me mad. In fact, this whole ordeal makes me mad... Hoping some of the more recent updates might show up at some point... Since Q Talk now seems to be a catch all category (much as pretty many of them NOW are) you might want to think of a new location for the updates, if you plan to do them going forward. SO glad I saw you posted here!! Honestly, it would've killed them to keep a sports board and, gasp, a handbag board... Why the Logo Lock alone should've ensure the latter!!
STEVIE---I was going to work from home, but there was a water main link so they shut off the water in our neighborhood so I had to go into the office and didn't get a chance to bring this mess up and sorry I did...Oh and to edit click the 3 dots in the right hand corner....Oh BTW did you see this little change in the Forum Standards---

Controversial topics will be removed – Discussions of a controversial or confrontational nature will be removed at our discretion. The following are examples of topics that generally create a negative dialogue between Community members which will result in removal of the discussion and possible banning: current events, politics, religious beliefs, and unkind comments about hosts
Goody for those aboard the Good Ship Lollipop (you know, headed for the shore...), they finally got what they wanted, but the poetic justice in all of this is that most of those seeking the kinder, gentler (aka Stepford) approach probably aren't savvy enough to be able to navigate this hot mess anyway... Besides, define 'unkind'...

Geesh, at this point, they might as well let the ship sink... Just remember, this is new and improved... Right?

I went to my settings, and I have no idea what any of the "settings" mean. I'm not a stupid person, but what do they mean by "linear" setting. And why on earth would I want anyone on this forum to know my email address?
Please put it back. Seriously. Put the forums the way they were when they worked.
If anyone from the Q team is reading, please tell me how to find the BE Forum. PUT IT BACK!!!

I really don't think a well designed forum would require an actual learning curve to use it.
I'm sure there are some great new features here, but I'm shocked at difficult it is to find things, navigate, etc. One should not have to spend this much time trying to figure out how to set preference.

Boy do I agree... I think there are some advantages to this new format but they're far outweighed by so many factors... No, no one should have to literaly search for threads and posters of interest and no one should require an extensive tutorial to figure out how to effectively utilize the nuances of what should be a simple, straightforward message board. Again, they had every opportunity to make things better and again they didn't.

This thing is just awful. Now, I am not opposed to change if it is for the better, but this ain't! Can't see recent posts prior to the change, and I just happened to stumble upon you guys. This, as far as I am concerned, is just one more nail in the coffin for QVC for me.
