    Whats all the Different Member Labels mean?

    Actually the double triple and quad guru titles are intentionally uninspiring. I have lots of titles in mind that could have been used, but seriously after 10K posts who cares? :)

    Problem posting in some sub-forums

    I'm a member of a large forum that won't let you post anywhere of consequence until you have 20 posts of solid content. ECFs stance is not the most draconian one among large forums by a long shot.

    Why was my thread closed?

    Because ask the veterans questions are read only - If they were left open they would turn into discussions rather than a question with answers which is not the intent of the ATV forum.

    Are the servers having problems, or did we just overload them with too many members?

    Tibs that can't be done. Spaky's bubble is as large as ... well as large as Angus lets it be.

    Why are some topic moved?

    If you take a couple moments to consider where your post should go before you actually submit it the odds of it being moved are much less. Posts are moved in order to keep some semblance of order on the forum, If everything is posted to general discussion things just become buried and you cant...

    Are the servers having problems, or did we just overload them with too many members?

    I sent an email a little while ago to our server tech and answered me about two minutes ago: Translation: Nothing he can do, it is outside of our network (aka its the internet ...) With that said I also restarted the load balancer and webserver cluster to see it it helps any.

    Moderator help w/Social Group questions please

    Take over and liven the groups it is up to you (the members) to do since they are your groups :) Of course we could just delete them completely. But that would mean the folks from MN would have to start over completely. I'd rather not take that route.

    Am I in trouble???

    Without a url to the thread in question it is impossible to answer definitively... But it looks like you were trying to post to a closed thread.

    Why can't I open a large thread?

    I can get into it just fine. But extremely large threads can be problematic if you are have a slow connection day or if the servers are heavily loaded. Perhaps its time for them to close the thread and start Part 3 :)

    100% VG Area

    If there is enough interest we can open a 100% VG DIY forum - but if there is only going to be one or two threads it just makes navigation that much more difficult. I'll take it under advisement and see how it goes.

    The "Contact Us" Page

    The reason there is no point of contact for hardware issues is simply that no server tech is ever directly contacted by the users, they have other things to deal with without having to read 1239457463852345 emails a day of which only perhaps 1 is relevant :)

    I got FRAUD-CHARGE on my Credit Card too >>>

    if the shopping cart is properly configured and the vendor does not store your credit card information (most do not) then the fault line shifts to the processor or possibly to someone generating your credit card number. A never used card that has been activated can be breached. I'm not making...

    BEWARE the Caravela Thief

    While I applaud when the community comes together to out those that have abused the kindness that is so prevalent in the vaping community, I feel that it is important that folks understand that there is almost always more than meets the eye in any situation. I haven't fully researched this...

    Ban Vendors who sell Obvious Knock-Offs, i.e. Hybrids

    This horse has been about beat to death. ECFs policy is we will comply with trademark and patent issues if properly documented. We cant be the morals police and tell you whether or not you should buy a "clone" item, but we will ban any supplier that is counterfeiting. Their are so many...
