OK, I've just received the PM from Kaston and will be taking action.

In the future, do not post the content of any private messages or emails on the board without prior permission.

All messages either reported to me or the mods will be looked at.

The behavior exhibited by Sanneke is totally intolerable.

Thank you. Your quick and decisive action is appreciated.

Thanks sooo much SJ!

I did post his/her PM knowing I was breaking a rule, but I was absolutely shocked and appalled at it and wanted to see if this person did this to any others.

Wow Kaston, the forum sure got lively tonight while I was out having a little quiet time to myself. Started reading when I got home 2 1/2 hours ago LOL. Sorry you were called such a "vulgar" name. Name calling is just not called for by anyone, name calling is something little kids do!

You should be proud of geting your article published, & congratulations for doing so. I can see some might be offended by your article or your pictures, but as adults, if they are offended then it is easy to just not look & go to the next page, article, & forget it.

Personally, I thought your signature was funny, nothing nekkid it in, just a .... wiggling to liven things up a bit, all in fun. Fun is what the internet should be about with no hassles from others, rude comments etc......

I don't get offended by much of anything, matter of fact by those who know me in real life, describe me as having a "sick sense of humor", the worse a joke or picture, usually the better I like it so I try to be very careful out here myself.

Take care & forget this ever happened, you didn't deserve it at all.

No one is forcing anyone to look at the Miss ECF thread. And I made it QUITE clear that anyone who was annoyed with my past sig could just say the word and it would be taken down.

(Mod hat off) OK, I have to agree with this. As long as a thread isn't breaking any rules, then I could care less what someone says on there. If I find it offensive, then I don't have to view it. No one is forcing me to go there.

And if I did find something that offensive, I might make a comment to that effect on the thread but personally, I would never write to someone to call them a name. That really tells more about my character than the one I'm insulting.

Not a reason to break the rules - the mods will always take care of any issues without any need to break this rule, which is extremely important for the protection of members.

I am ****in FUMING !!!!
Everyone is allowed an opinion .. opinions are like ........s, everyone has one!

HOWEVER THIS GOES BEYOND OPINIONS!!!!

It is a CALLOUS STUPID ATTACK on a member of our community , SANNEKE , if you know something we dont I ****in DARE you to share it with us??
If you dont have anything to base your shameless cowardly message on apart from some sick twisted image you have in your mind then just keep your damned thoughts to yourself.

By Posting this PM on the board I think Kaston has done a VERY brave thing even tho it contravenes forum rules, I do not believe ANY member making a personal unfounded attack should be able to hide behind forum rules like the coward you appear to be by attacking her behind the anonymity of the net.

You did not state you disagreed with her philosophy or similar you called her "nothing more than a ..... "... You sir/madam are way outta line
If ever I got the opportunity, rest assured I would take you out the back and impress on you how much of thoughtful person you are NOT !!!

( edit .. Oh and if by chance you are female, ignore the taking you out the back bit , it goes against everything I believe in , but you should know better)
i totaly agree trumpy it is easy to sit behind your i.p. address and little avatar and bash a young lady that you dont even know.....and why because she likes to have fun or enjoys her job that you may not agree with or maybe you feel like a woman should be covered from head to toe?im sorry but miss kaston is not in the taliban.......miss kaston i think your great and what you do is great if more people were like you maybe our divorce rate wouldnt be so high......and hey if ya got it flaunt it

Kaston why are you even whining about it and posting the private message in the forum. I would have thought a person with your professional background would have handled it a little more discretely.

Just let it roll off your backside and report it to SJ

That's the trouble with free speech and open forums, people like Kaston just go and take advantage of it!:p

I have to agree with Lu on this one; like her I learned the hard way what being "familiar" with others on the internet can result in...

Kaston, this is a community, but it's a community that exists on the internet. Anybody can register on this site, heck, homeless people can get on the net at the local library, and the incarcerated often have access as well ('cept those identity theft types, or predators of minors). They come from all walks of life; differing in all imaginable ways, from religion to politics to cultural upbringing, to economic status to age and so on and so forth, the list of differences is endless. The only thing in common is that they came to find out about and discuss about e cigs.

Personally I thought the pageant threads were a hoot, but honestly I have to admit that I was a bit shocked that some contestants divulged so much personal info and got a bit daring with their photos.

From being on varied forums for quite some time now, it seems to me that when posts stay on topic all remains pretty much as expected. When they go off topic and other views/life style choices/etc. come into play... well, that's where the "wigging out" might happen.

I am sorry you were insulted, but remember, there's a difference between folks being friendly and being your friend. That said, most here are very friendly and helpful, which is why we keep coming back right? Best I can offer you is to say don't allow one simple minded person to sully the experience of being here. And remember to be cautious with your personal info. I fear that more ill mannered people will show up as this site grows in popularity (hopefully being rude will be their worst transgression) and the best we can do is to take defensive measures.

Onward now Kaston, he/she has been banished so it's back to "business"!

OK does one take this to be a backhanded slight ???
putting the pieces together equals Miss ECF?
apologies if I am wrong for calling you out on this one, but dont you think the girl has copped enough if that was your intent?
I am 100% sure Kaston was making light herself with that comment hence the [joke] before and after her "I wonder if this will get me pity votes" comment .
If this however was an "in " joke I am unaware of please disregard and I will shut up , if not , poor taste?
