EzineArticles.com will not allow any E Cig content in articles...FYI

[Vaprific]

If this is not the correct place to put this, my apologies. I did take the time to check if it was the most appropriate place, but my judgement could be in error.

This is "News" to me but may be well known to others I am not sure. EzineArticles.com is the oldest and perhaps the largest site that authors may submit articles to, with the intention that the content can be reused on other sites. They do but they do not allow anything about e cigs to be published, along with terrorist, bombs or illegal drugs.

Isn't it sad that this amazing device gets grouped in with terrorist, illegal drugs and bombs? We have a big education deficit to overcome I think.

Here is a link to their policy for anyone who wants to read it:

P.S. I can't wait for the day, when we are big enough to fight back with our numbers and the inventor of the Ruyan gets his well deserved nobel prize. Someday we can boycott tourism to countries (or patronage to companies) that ignore the scientific evidence available to protect the big tobacco companies, and maybe pry their minds open a bit. It can't be that far off!

The irony of this getting posted after the furore about Internet censorship.
Who funds the site, I wonder or is it some super careful fear of litigation?

Vaporizers used in the context of aromatherapy devices or humidifiers

???? I mean ???? extreme avoidance policy as regards drug paraphernalia if this is included.

Is ok?
I wonder if baseball bats and discussion thereof is forbidden as they could be used as weapons?

I think they are more speaking of the use of a vaporizer in the use of drugs. They sell specific use ones for that purpose. And the aromatherapy stuff they mention i believe is more pointed towards some of the more experimental dugs out there like JWH-018 and its other cousins.

JWH-018 is mixed with legal herbs and sold in some shops as an aromatherapy incense (A cover for being a drug) but is still legally sold in most states. In its pure form it must be vaporized to be used. It has many other variants that it is based from just to keep one step ahead of the law everytime they make one variant illegal.

They could lump e-gigs into the rule but im not sure they meant it to include them when it was written. Id ask and see.

Sadly, the line between the two "vaporizer" types can be pretty blurred. Just look at the Thermovape . . . it's just a re-branded Ultramax, basically. Any of the Antz who make that connection will have even more fuel for their fire with that point

You need to scroll down a bit farther

Any content that promotes or encourages the use of tobacco or tobacco related products is prohibited.

Examples of prohibited tobacco or tobacco related products include:
Cigarettes, cigars, tobacco, tobacco alternatives (such as kretek and cloves)
The description or promotion of any inhalant paraphernalia such as pipes, hookahs, shisha pipes, water pipes, bongs, rolling paper, or vaporizer
Article content or links that promotes or describes the use of electronic cigarettes

Of course this is blatant censorship, but it's politically correct so its all okay.
