Seriously! Bonza is back on the throw in a CC™ Coma and Precious is off chasing a sparkle ball.

Ballerina thighs....

I have a question about this thread. If it's just a general banter type thread, then what does Janies Robe or Cozy Chic have to do with it? (I only say that cuz I would think by the title, that robes are the main subject. Or that only robe owners should post in here.) Just curious and this question is not meant to make anyone mad or to try to close this thread or anything. Then again, I guess we don't really have a chatters type thread....so this one should fit that bill.

Thanks Julie. That was kind of my point. I thought this was Buyer's Banter. If this is to fill the Chatters bill, I don't understand why it's under Buyers Banter. Seriously, it makes the Buyers Banter thread look like people are posting real buyers' stuff.

Talk about killing a thread that used to be so much fun for so many people.

You can only post in here if you own a CC robe, or know someone through TVCH who owns a robe. Or if you want a robe, but can't bring yourself to buy one. Or if you can spell robe. Or if you're a member of TVCH that likes the people in the thread, loves hearing other people's stories about CC, and likes the conversation going on here.

I don't think there are steadfast RULES as to what Buyer's Banter is. So maybe everyone has a different idea of what it is, and we need to adapt to where the MODS think is the best place for the thread.

Like every other thread here, people don't have to participate if they don't like it.

Perhaps one could learn to use the New Messages feature (which I KNOW you both know how to use), and one would never have to wonder what has caused the Buyer's Banter thread to be "at the top" ever again.

I'm gonna take a stab at answering, and I'm also going to make is seem as if I'm speaking for others. If anyone disagrees you can tell me to go groom myself, but here goes:

We all came together in this thread over robes and Cozy Chic™ and chat. It's as simple as that. The title of the thread describes the energy and commonality that led it to have almost as many posts as the most popular of any of the Big Brother threads.

Really, that's all. To be here, in a new location that was obviously approved by the powers that be, and now be discussing it again seems sort of futile. One glance in here and no one will be confused about what's going on.

Have I ever told anyone that I'm not even a robe person? Isn't that a hoot? The freakin' host of the thread and I don't like fluffy robes!!!

But I love my hoodie, throws, blankies and the robe I just ordered for my dh.

Speaking as a former lurker, this thread is why I signed up at TVCH. I love the friendly feeling here...it simply is a happy place to be! I may not be a regular poster, but I still enjoy this thread daily. Oh, and I have a throw and a robe!

LOL Bonza - I stand corrected. Anyone who owns anything by Cozy Chic, or likes witnessing how others feel about their Cozy Chic, or WANTS something made from Cozy Chic yet can't bring themselves to buy it, and all the other rules up top. As long as you fit one of those categories....

Oh, people who like seeing all of the pictures of Bonza's cats can post here too!!

=====================================================

Oh, and AS IF people have never caused a thread to go off-topic here at TVCH <ahem almost every Big Brother thread had off-topic cross chatter>!! I didn't see these people complaining THERE. Why the double standard?

Eeyore- I can spell R-O-B-E, I have a robe, know other TVCHers that have a robe and gave robes as gifts. I think I may be overqualified for this thread. LOL.

Bonza- Exactly! BTW-Love the latest picture of kitties on seaglass. They sure do know how to make themselves comfy.

Merrysea- I don't know how you're holding out. It must be killing you to have the robe and hoodie in the house with you. Are you sure you are not secretly trying it on? LOL.

I thought of another qualification: If you like looking at pictures of Gertie and Lulu in Cozy Chic, then you can post here too!!

I think many of us are very over qualified to be here Jinksy, but as long as we can get ans many HAPPY people in here, then all the extra qualifications are good.

Bonza is pretty much correct. TPTB wanted to be able to shut down and archive the Big Brother 6 area, so we needed to move.

People had been coming to a "robe thread" and chatting so that is the origin of the title of the thread.

I would imagine if we started talking about Cozy/Chic Comas and loving our robes in another thread, such as Facts or Right now (and I don't mean we can't but if we did that in high volume) I think we'd be seen as highjacking existing threads.

I kind of don't understand why this thread continues to offend. There's many an active thread or discussion that goes on that I may not choose to or have time to participate in.. I'm not a parent but I think it is very cool that there's a parenting thread. I don't play the Idjit Game but I see references all over the place, cool.

This is just a morph from the old robe thread, but without the business intermingled quite so much. We've always had people here who aren't buying robes or buy them elsewhere but still come to chat/banter, joke, welcome new people, smile at the comatose kitties, whatever.

I agree it could go in one of several places but don't see a huge problem.

LOL, Bonza.. your CAT is a host ane he's clearly a cozy/chic addict! Maybe he does want a little robe.

Critter again made it clear that she doesn't want to snuggle on C/C.. she walked up on top of me and stared until I pulled back the folded down portion of my bordeaux throw, and thenshe moved into that spot on top of the duvet, which was on top of me.

Her new favorite.. I had put the black canvas Starting Over tote bag on top of a wicker oval basket.. well she's settled into that, making the tote fit into the basket and she curls up there (it also is on a one-step rubbermaid stool and has a perfect view out the window :-)

Jinksy~ I know, I think this thread has brought out an amazing number of lurkers. Some of us aren't as vocal as others, but I think we all feel like we're amongst friends when we're here!

Julie, to clarify (just in my opinion).. the title is more of a warning that there will be many robe/hoodie/throw, etc lovers here and those topics WILL be discussed, not that others are excluded, just that if they don't want to hear about robes or cozy/chic this may not be the place to be. I think banter happens in many places on the board.

Okay, a few minutes after I posted that I couldn't try my stuff on, my son asked me to try on the hoodie to make sure it fit. It's a different size than the one I have, but it still fits, and a large would have been too big. Joely, you must be kept really busy trying to figure out all the different sizes for different colors! Keep up the good work!
