Is this a reason to ban someone Mid and DT? You could tell him your opinions using epicheiremas and not ban him. Also if he was elitist about a mod that you sell you would still ban him? Does ecf ban people because they talk all day about their favorite mod?

Also, is it right to bring prong's personal info on forum?

Imeo the whole point is that this guy would continuously spam the group after being asked to stop. When confronted on the crap he is spreading he tucks his tail runs and hides only to block anyone who voiced a different opinion than him. He spreads lies and false truths to get his rocks off and make himself appear superior. The fact that he is a newb and claims to have all this knowledge is quite honestly ridiculous. Im a vape newb personally and have never said anything about any shop or product that I don't have personal experience with. He lives to flame and instigate drama that isnt there and I would advise against any association with him.

I'm not a mod or admin in the groups. Nor am I related to a shop. It was his spam (constant), self righteousness, and the holier than thou stuff everybody tired of. Cool, you have nice gear, and vape a juice you like. When you put down everybody who doesn't vape the juice you do or use GG devices that doesn't go over well. Especially when his claims are others can not afford it. I brought personal issues here, when he had brought his personal issues up first. Especially if he brings up finances and ability to afford a product.

I came here and posted simply to ensure he could not delete it, block me, or hide from a confrontation. Especially when he is bashing the local community and offers here. A true public call out to answer his bashing and attempts to deface the local vape scene. He has had no shame in linking to this thread for "your response" and claiming to be your personal best friend.

Mid, we had same situation on Greek forum and especially on GG Greek forum. A person there was talking about a mod all the time. I tell you again that he was doing that on GG forum!. We had no rules there like ecf (that noone can talk about other mods on a supplier's forum) but I still didnt ban him, I only tried to make him see that GG is better in all aspects. He finally bought a GG and he was very happy with it, happier than before.

I dont know prong but what I see is a guy that loves his GG. I think you have to respect that, especially because its happening to an open forum like yours and not in a supplier's forum.

And be sure that passionated people like prong brought e-cig world where it is now. We all own a lot to people like prong. And I would still say the same even if prong was supporting another mod. There are a lot of supporters of other mods that I would like to have in my side but that doesnt mean that I would ban them if I could

1-Read the "about page" above says it all.

2-No shop bashing...If you have an issue with a shop take it up with that shop in person not on this page...bashing the shop by name is grounds for removal from the club.

3-No advertising or self promoting by shop owners...their employees...or their family members. If you post an ad or promote your shop in anyway, your ad will be deleted and you will be removed permanently..."Can and Ban". You can always side chat or pm someone if you feel you need to make contact.

4-No Drama...there are other pages for that...not this one.

5-Watch your language...yes we are all adults, so let’s act like it, you’re not the only one using this page. What does not offend you, may offend others...this is called respect.

6-Your admins are here to maintain the page and ensure adherence to the policies and rules. We work hard to have a great page free from ads and drama. We are not here for pm and/or personal attacks because of something you did.

There you go, try and remember that we have every type of member here...starter to enthusiast...keep it simple so that all may benefit from the combined knowledge base.

This group has been created to bring vapers together from all over the great state of Oklahoma. We have already taken a huge step by making the switch to electronic cigarettes. They have changed so many lives and have brought so many people together in the effort to save lungs. Do you have questions or concerns? Want to share pics of your new PV? Do it! That's what this group is all about. Have fun, Vape On, and Love your Lungs!

Group Rules: No self promoting by shop owners, employees or their family members and no shop bashing. This is a happy page. Also, the vaping community encourages the use of electronic cigarettes for the sole purpose of nicotine delivery. Nothing drug related can be posted on this page. We do not encourage the use of these devices to be used for any other purpose. Using it with any illegal substance is what causes problems with law enforcement and gives electronic cigarettes a bad reputation. These are meant to help us, not cause us any more problems. Keep it clean, folks!

how does saying "if you don't use a GG you are a poor broke ......., and don't know how to vape" help or support anything? cool be proud of what you have. None of us faulted him for that. But when you put down local shops (that you have shopped at without issue) and you are bashing your fellow vapers there is a problem. Deny that. He isn't passionate. He is a ..... with a god complex. If you don't agree with him, he bans you from contact. If you don't vape what he does, you are poor, uneducated, low class, etc.

Maybe that happened because some people didnt gave him respect DT? You dont get ungry without a reason. Maybe the people that owns a different mods told him inappropriated things?
The thing is that everyone has a behavior that sometimes needs our attention. We have to find what is happening first. We have to protect him from other users that maybe tell him bad things and make him react that way and look bad at the end. I havent read your forum but I am sure that prong didnt react like you said without a reason. What I see on ecf is a nice, serious person that writes normal.

Hello all! THE admin is here! We were very patient with Mark and he had been warned a few times about promoting. Over the course of two months he appeared to many that he was an employee of GG and Five Pawns. Before that it was HighBrow liquids. There is nothing wrong with a photo and story here and there but GG and Five Pawns is and apparently still all he talks about. Nothing wrong with that either unless its everyday and multiple times a day. It was only after he started rating stores on our forum that we had to pull the plug. No shop bashing IS a rule. He has now blocked anyone who he "thinks" is against him or might be a threat with the truth.
 
I read rules DT. I cant see where prong was wrong

when he is advertising for COV, and five pawns, that alone is against the rules. He may not be affiliated but pushing them direct was enough apparently. Starting drama, by bashing local shops, other vapers. Of course you can't see what he did wrong as you had not seen his dozens of posts spamming the same things over and over, repeatedly every day.

I dont agree with the characterizations you use and the way you handle the situation Mid. Idiots are the copies that steal other's work. Users that dont have to earn something from posting, are not idiots for sure
Yea not my group nor am I even an admin. I just hate idiots who talk a big game but wont back it up. As far as he's concerned any info we find on him thats public is fair game.
