I posted it in early---did someone do a no-no?

Not sure. He kept saying he was building (had built?) the "ULTIMATE mod" and people asked him to post pictures. Then just kept hinting at how he has 'connections' with manufacturers and can get stuff for free. Generally being a pain. I posted something like 'Yeah, that's good, but being a persistent pest is a pain' :D. Went to check to see if anything else had been said and it weren't thar. :lol:

Post like that will get it done.
Now he has to start all over again, and if he does the same thing, he isn't going to be around long!

The shamelessness of it all. I leave for a few hours and y'all pick on Tibs.. tsk tsk tsk.

My beef is not with American "football", just the name of it. I don't understand why a game that is played with the ball primarily in the hand, is called "football". Soccer (really called FOOTBALL the world over), is very appropriately named. That's all!

As for the game itself, it's nice that the Americans come up with a game where big grunting guys wearing HUGE protective armour, get to push and shove all they want, and then stop to catch their breath every 3 - 5 yards. Nice going tough guys! :p Oh wait, you're running too fast.. somebody call a time-out.. gather at the bench.. catch our breath.. let's talk some more. Everybody caught your breath? Ok, now go push and shove some more.

Now, you really want to play Football your way (ball in hand).. take the silly body armour off, and go play Rugby. Just sayin'..

The * by names means those are set. Still looking for that someone special for the others so everybody keep an eye out. And thanks for your efforts! :)
Classy has generously offered to start the threads with no names beside it. :)
All welcome threads should be started in the Veterans Forum by four o'clock the day before.


Welcome to the ECF Pre-Vet thread!

A Pre-Vet is an ECF member that is about to have their status "Turn" to ECF-Veteran on or about the anniversary of their ECF sign up. You also need anywhere from 70 and 75 post.

This thread is where you can hang out (courtesy of Whiskey creating this thread) and celebrate becoming an ECF-Veteran with other ECF members. You have the option (but not the obligation) to have an Avatar Theme Celebration on your turning day. You select a theme, and many of the group here will help celebrate by changing their avatars. Kind of an avatar costume party. You'll also get a bunch of congrats and a welcome thread created in a sub-forum for vets that pre-vets can't even see yet. If you want to have an avatar theme, start thinking about it!

We will not turn away last minute request, but please try to give us enough advanced notice so we can dig something up for pics. Two weeks prior to your turning date would be awesome.
We try to limit scheduling to the current and the following month.

If you are a pre-veteran and want a welcome thread in the Veteran's Forum and or an avatar theme for your turning day please do the following: Post in this thread and PM me your request.

This thread moves fast so as a final safeguard double check the list that is posted here several times a day sometime before your turning day.
Or the list here: PreVet List: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rs/115895-group-news-notices.html#post3443853

We do our best to accommodate multiple members turning on the same date. Each member is free to choose their own theme; participants rotate and/or combine themes as desired.

Joining in on the celebration is for all members (new and old) so please feel free to participate in the themes for others if you wish. If you are not a Vet yet and want your pic added to Celebrant's thread in the Veterans Forum, there is a Depot located in the Sandbox.
Once you get to the Sandbox, look for the celebrant's thread and follow instructions.
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/sandbox/

Again, I post this list frequently on this thread.
List can also be found here: PreVet List: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rs/115895-group-news-notices.html#post3443853
