Pre Veteran Thread 2012 (cont.) - Everyone is Welcome !

[Dusty_D]

It is really disappointing to see how "sensitive" everybody has become around here. Has ECF really become that unbearable for you guys?! Most of you are my seniors here, and I respect a lot of you. I'm requesting you guys to not turn this place into a farce of what it is, and what it is trying to achieve. And for all our sakes, please stop being so critical about every single thing that happens here.

The Lounge is where this thread belongs. Take a look at the description of the Lounge forum and perhaps you may even choose to agree with me.

Forum: The Lounge

A place for chitchat - threads that have become "chat threads" may end up here even if they were originally e-cigarette related. Posts made in this forum will not increase your post count.

In what way are hundreds of pictures of bunnies and cups of coffee general e-cigarette related posts? This is a social thread and thus belongs in the lounge. Don't get me started about the PVT crew discouraging e-cig talk in the thread...

So in short, this is the new home. If you truly care about what the thread is supposed to be you'll carry on. If you don't then you'll take your ball and go home.

ah, sarge, since you put it this way, it's pretty clear cut -

 

[oldsoldier]

I'm sorry you all feel that way. It saddens me to finally confirm what I had thought for quite some time, that PVT had become more of a clique looking for post count and forum fame and glory then a group dedicated to welcoming folks.

 

[FranC]

That is so unfair Sarge.......

Totally not true. It was there for visibility. Not clique. It encouraged people to stay with ECF for their 1st year and also to stick to e-cigs.

We did answer a few e-cig questions and even gathered support for other questions in other threads. It's just that most of the time a question deserved it's own thread.

I'm not totally upset by the location. Just the whammy. Also the accusation that it isn't ECF or e-cig related.

You have your own ways and rules, I guess. I don't dispute the "right" to put it in the Lounge. But it's kind of a "shell shock" way to do it.

We don't give a rat's .... about post count.

have you seen us playing those famous word games????? we have tried our best to make folks feel special, sometimes rearranging our own rw schedules to make sure we could be here for the upcoming vet - being deemed ''off-topic'' in our efforts is not what i was looking for.

 

[FranC]

It appears our efforts don't matter.

 

[oldsoldier]

You'll have to do better than that shoe. Playing the Nazi card is not even used over at VF with any success.

 

[classwife]

Please...please...this is not going in a good direction.

Please...Moved to the Lounge and we all lost post count...it's not a critical thing - That isn't what this thread is supposed to be about. This thread is about congratulating members that have been at ECF for a year, isn't it ?

 

[AttyPops]

I don't care about post count classy. Nor do I really care about location, other than A) members finding us again and B) visibility. I can live with it. Just that my ears are still ringing from the shell-shock. And I don't consider it off-topic. I grant them the social aspect of it.

 

[tiburonfirst]

classy, this was never about post count. if we were interested in that we could play any of those one word games all over the forum ...

 

[AttyPops]

This move means that we'll lose participants. And it's about THEM. Visibility (of the thread, not for us personally).

 

[WolfeReign]

People are proud of their post count. It says, "Hey! I'm involved a lot here!" It tells new people you've been involved. So yeah...it's important. To me anyway.

"Hey! I'm not so involved around here, i am personally a true under achiever, and a slouch!!!! that's right Constantine Said it!!"

Following Constantine's train of thought, it's just your portion of the Universe re-aligning itself.

Ahhh man.......and here i thought i had the only train on the tracks

...

Now this is what i like to wake up to

[classwife]

nope - it's not about post count, lol

instead of organizing, keeping lists, and making prevets feel like they belong to a community they can be proud of

we all can go and play word games where in NO time we'll be up to 50 k!

I am not getting what playing the word games has to do with this at all ?

 

[WolfeReign]

I call Dibs on Dusty's Provari and Reno!!!!

classy - if we were interested in post count you would find us in any one of these threads

Search Results - E-Cigarette Forum

Please...Moved to the Lounge and we all lost post count

you were the one who thought the reduced post count upset us. if we were that concerned with post count we would play those word games and rack up a couple of hundred posts in a heart beat

Cats & dogs living together... The world is coming apart at the seems - I need a shot of CENSORED....

 

[starrynight]

I don't know, for me I am not really savy at vaping when it comes to mods, DIY, the latest techniques and pv's. I have a simple set up that has worked since my early days . I am not able to contribute much in the threads where people look for advice for I really have no clue. People joining today probably have more knowledge than I do. I liked feeling like I was "giving back" in a way to the forum and helping out. Just how I always felt.
