How do I find this part? - all the useful tech stuff gets shunted there so it doesn't frighten the girly wusses. At least 90% of posts amount to adverts for the latest expensive whizz-bang shiny gadgets - I can get that anywhere.

We move qualifying threads to Not Advisable for specific reasons - they are practices that are UNSAFE to be done.
If you really think there might be "useful tech stuff" in posts that were moved there :

The last thing that vaping needs is more negative attention.
...hope we don't read about you on the evening news !
Now, if you would like some serious and useful tech info you might like to check out the Modding Forum.

ECF does not condone unsafe practices and will not knowingly assist the membership in obtaining a Darwin Award, especially when it comes to battery safety. Obtaining batteries from questionable sources (recycle bins, laptop battery packs, etc.) is definitely an unsafe practice and any mention of obtaining batteries from these unsafe sources will be moved to Not Advisable.
I spent an hour or so reading that subforum. I didn't whether to be horrified or entertained.
Both. I'm weirdly drawn to that subforum.

heh, bookmarked for when I have some free time
Some of both. It's absolutely AMAZING the stupid things some people think sound like a good idea until they try them.
I should head over there and ask them about my 20k mAh auto jump starter mod idea and see if they think Rayon would be OK for a 4800 Watt vape.
There should be a requirement that every thread in that subforum be accompanied by a video.
I have a feeling I am going to pay a visit. I'll try to keep it "planned." But I can't keep a camera on 24-7 Bad Ninja....

It needs to be live feed so someone can call 911.
It would take considerable effort on my part (if not deliberate mischief) to get anywhere near the "negative attention" caused by approved certified commercial products - even Boeing managed to f**k it up in a very spectacular way.

Well, see, here's the problem: Some people are dumb. Some people are foolish. Some people are irresponsible. That's just part of the human condition. Odds are some of them are your friends, because they aren't really bad people, just people with flaws. If you're sitting around in a room with a group you can usually identify these people and help them through things that may be unpleasant or potentially dangerous. But that's not always possible here and the admins that run this site don't want to have potentially dangerous activities discussed on a regular basis because they want to avoid encouraging risky behavior. I think that having a special forum for these discussions is a good compromise.
And some are all of the above.
Truth is, most troublesome posts/threads don't end up there as folks, even with some really weird ideas, will ask for and get help here. It requires diligence and perseverance in clinging to your really bad ideas to make it all the way to that subforum. Think of it this way, it sets a new bar for us all to aim higher for.
They're still going to 'err on the side of caution' so to speak. This site has a bunch of sub forums, and the mods seem to do a pretty good job of trying to make sure that topics go in the right sub forum. Honestly...if I were you I'd be happy that a sub forum exists that caters to your needs rather than remorseful over a lack of discussion about your particular topic in a more popular sub forum.
