that message board

I'm sure some of you know which one I'm talking about. I'm beginning to feel like I'm being followed around by the mods and picked at. Today I got an "infraction" for my signature lines. I had a post removed because I called a quilt somebody asked me to repair a "cheap Chinese import." (I'll bet people from China know their exports are cheap and are laughing all the way to the bank.) I had several posts removed because I violated the rule about only making one post a week in the classifieds. One post with 15 different things just doesn't make it easy for people to see things they might want to buy. And they seem to changed the rules for posting classified ads every time you turn around. They're even setting prices on things now!!

The move to the new software has flat out sucked. There are so many people that have to have detailed instructions just to add a picture to their posts and they move to one of the most cluttered up, complicated software packages there is for message boards and forums???? It's like they want to get rid of people. I know several people left and started their own message board/forum because of all the crap before the migration to the new software even happened.

Ms P, I'm somebody else there.

Not sure when your post regarding the quilt repair was removed but I did see it. Can't speak about the charges for classifieds...not sure that I've ever even looked at them and certainly haven't posted there.

I do agree the other software package was certainly easier to read but I'm getting by. Change is hard. I saw someone else's post about other forums using the same software. I don't visit that many forums so can't speak about that either. And not knowing who you are there I can't imagine why you had an 'infraction' about signature lines??? I post there (and here) when I have something to say that hasn't been said a thousand times before but that's about it. I must say, in general, I prefer an 'unmoderated' board/forum as we have here. There is a lot of good information on both sites and I enjoy them both for that reason. Sometimes things can get out of hand on unmoderated sites but, to me, the good far outweighs the bad.

Hope you stick around both places.

Sorry...wasn't trying to be rude. Yes, quiltingboard.com. I had originally heard of it here so thought many would be aware - particularly because of all the buzz (there, at least) about their recent software upgrade. I think it's a good site, lots of useful and helpful information. Also lots of social and selling bits but those are segregated so you have the choice to participate in those venues or not.
