It would be nice if everyone got along. The bitterness needs to stop. There is enough space for everyone. Find what works for each of us and let the rest just go.

There is already too much division in vapeland. If people put as much passion into this the topic being discussed, into fighting the regulations that are being handed down left and right. We could get a lot more turned around in our favor.

People love drama, I guess the keeping the ability to vape isn't providing enough drama. :(

Well, I'm afraid that drama is in the eye of the beholder. To Senator Blumenthal, Tom Frieden, Dr. Robert Califf, Karen Smith, etc., our pleas to allow vaping and claims that it will save many lives, are probably "drama". We consider them advocating. It's a lot like Freedom Fighters vs. Rebels, it all depends on where you stand.

We all want to end terrorism, but that doesn't mean that our disgust with waterboarding is divisive or negatively impacts the efforts being made to that end.

I am the kind of person that drives by an accident without looking at it.
I do it on principle.

Yes, I realize I am one of only a handful of people in the world like this.
I wish to God I wasn't though.

And to those of you that cause traffic jams?
I don't like you very much.

Fun thread by the way!
:laugh:

Yeah, but admit it, when you are stuck in traffic on the weekend and it's moving slower than the senior citizen ahead of you in line trying to figure out the ATM for the first time, there is a little angry voice in the back of your head is that is thinking "Man! There better be a horrific pile up there with bodies flung everywhere to justify making me late to Target!!!" Yeah, you think it. You don't want it to be true but you think it.

If your friend was talking about products for sale then it will be investigated. Suppliers or sellers fall under a different category.


Edit before posting: I see Retired answered also.

Just a Hypothetical Situation.

If I gave me Input/Ideas to an OEM for an a RTA they were designing, and received No Monetary or Other Compensation for my Input or Ideas, would I need to change my User Status here on the ECF?

I'd say that if the OEM promoted your name and you promoted the product as your design, it would be worth checking into. IMHO the "problem" to which you are referring isn't the design action, but what followed afterwards.....on both sides.

SJ's change to review some actions, should be a good one, IMHO.

I had to laugh when I checked that other place recently, and someone was complaining about ECF, and trying to recruit people to come over here and troll the members. They got shut down pretty quickly, but it was amusing.

At which point did you find it amusing ?. When some of those members arrived here and started trolling ?. Or was it when they mentioned why they are here ?, and is that why you went there to read about it ?.

And is there any other news from over there you'd like to share with us ?, or is that all you have ?.

Oh and while you were there did you try to encourage any of those members over to the ECF outside forum ?, seeing as it could do with more members. Well according to existing members it does : Invite to the "outside", coolest place in town!

    I didn't join. I read. I found the thread funny. I related as much here. That's it. Calm down.

    I know Jesus, he's famous er. :) I believe the frustration around Vaping lately is those who wrap coils. Sounds like something I'd be doing when they finally put me in the room with the padded walls. A screw, some wire, and the count. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7. And, again, 1,2...

    Oh right, ok.

    Here's a task for you. Go and join, then recruit as many people there as you can to come here and become new members of ECF.

    Wondering if you laughed at that as much as i laughed at this : Invite to the "outside", coolest place in town!

    I only brought it up because the discussion had touched on former ECF users acting out on the other forum. It doesn't interest me any further than as a humorous anecdote.

    Not much different that what happens every year or so. Many members come and go and almost no one notices. Some leave and others follow and gripe and complain regularly to any audience that will clap and listen for the next decade. Some of that audience comes here with the purpose of getting their posts deleted as a game to hoot and cheer about.
