When I read this last night, I held off on any response I just had to absorb this info, I guess I kind of feel like we have been evicted from our home, and then this is like we are being told we have to live out on the street from now on. I guess I don't see why one more social group forum would be such a problem, when the only active one is the HHV army one. Don't get me wrong I have no dislike for this provape forum, I always checked in here on a regular basis, for supplier info, and to ask questions, but for a social type area the old one was better for that. Just my :2c: I hope Dusty can change some minds on this matter.

I believe it has to do in part with the fact that HHV does not have their own Forum on here, while Provape does. It makes sense from a logistics perspective that their threads go in their forum, seeing how they would not be able to interact with you folk in the Social Group Forum.

Adam from HHV wishes he could interact with the HHV army folks but is unable to do so. He is limited to interacting with them in his two Supplier threads that he is allowed.

We have to take stuff like that into account as well before going off and making decisions that could negatively affect a supplier.

If and when HHV gets their own forum on here, their Social Group Forum would be absorbed into the main Supplier forum as well..pretty sure of it.

PoM play nice please!

Dusty is trying to help, let him and Ocey get together who knows, it may not change anything but we can use all the goodwill we can get and Dusty has always bin our friend.

Plus at this time she hasn't even had a chance to talk to MonsterKenny yet.Let's just all stick together and give her our support as best as we can.

I do know how you feel, I and many others here feel uprooted and set adrift on the wind to.:unsure:

I'll go digging and see what I can come up with.


p.s - Is there an issue with creating threads and hanging out in the Provape supplier section? I would expect that the heightened traffic in their area would be a plus.

We kinda sorta sometimes stray from the topic at hand:?:.....In this case, that might not be so good on a vendor's thread.

Hello Everyone,

Make yourselves at HOME! This is now your new home and we are glad to have all of you here :)

Kindly,
Ken

Hey guys, I don't want to speak for the whole group, but it appears we have been officially welcomed.

And if MonsterKenny has any regrets in the future, we need only remind him that as is with vampires, he had to INVITE us in first....

Hey guys, I'm not sure if I'm confused or if y'all are but perhaps somebody can shed some light on this matter for me..

There's Social Groups: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/groups/

and then,

There's Social Group Forums: Product and Vendor Specific


The old Social Groups are what is being slowly phased out. The HHV Army is currently active in the Social Group Forums section. Where exactly are y'all trying to end up?!


Sorry I've been out of touch with this transition and just saw this thread so, had to ask.

{{{{Dusty}}}} I've missed you! Reread my first post in the thread. Valsacar told me that while the Groups-No-One-Can-Find section (where there are no "like" or stickies options) will remain, the Social Groups section on the main page will be closed. That seems like it will be quite an endeavor with all of the location and interest specific forums. In my initial PM to him, I linked to a Social Forum group that hasn't has a post since 2010 and said that if creating the format was a problem he could give us that one and I would tidy it up (which is what he is referring to when he mentions my link).

"Short version, we currently have no plans to have groups on the front page. Those are legacy groups, and will be deleted sometime after they go inactive."

That seems pretty clear and suggests to me that you guys in the HHV Army are going to be grandfathered in.

PS: Did you bring me some Korma or at least authentic spices?
