Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
I think the "labels" are irrelevant, mostly because besides newcomer and
hall of fame they're meaningless to me because I can't figure out what
order any of them are in. As for hearts, who cares? I've...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
In all honesty, that sounds like someone's personal problem. The ONLY
time I have seen heart number come into play is TSBs, and I've never
seen anyone flaunting their hearts as a reasoning as to why t...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
Agreed. If you don't want to be judged by your hearts/title, then don't
judge others by their hearts/title. All forums I've been to have levels,
I don't see it as the problem. It's like saying if some...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
For me, if I asked something and got two answers and one had way more
hearts, I would probably take that one. But I guess that would just mean
more people agreeing..

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
Very well said Diana! Everyone, no matter what age, school, grade,
community, whatever the case may be, everyone needs a reminder of rules
at some point; and I am no exception. They are set in place f...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
Interfering too much? Hmmm, I see. No idea, but if a thread haven't been
answered in 48hrs, I think it's pretty safe to say your/mod's responses
are not "interfering too much" in these cases me thinks.

I actually think this is in response to a thread of posts I spotted
earlier today, which I see are now all deleted. Probably for the best.

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
With all due respect I don't believe making a statement of fact to
correct a post is taking it upon oneself to "educate" or "moderate". If
I can share the benefit of my experience with someone I belie...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
Many of the users who complained about feeling "left out" or expressed
anger at HOF/older members wanted to be in TSBs, most of which now have
rules about number of hearts/posts/time on BT to join. It...

And really all those rules were unfortunately introduced because of a

TSBs. Stealing boxes outright. Taking out $100 worth of p...

Re: Reminder to our Beauty Talk Community
I am still quite new to BT, but I agree that a lot of drama does seem to
come over TSBs. That being said, I have yet to figure out WHY. If
someone said I couldn't be in a TSB with them, I wouldn't wri...

I understand why you have such a policy, but particularly in response to
the "educating" bit: There are frequently posts that are wrong. Not in a

Good to know, thanks! You might want to consider phrasing the guidelines
a little more clearly then. I think people may have been confused by it.

I may be wrong, Diana will correct me on this I hope- I think the "don't
