read before you post?

[mahiney]

My guess is that it would take an extremely long time to read everything here... anyone know how many pages on this forum? I've spent so much time reading and I still have questions. I search for topics and read more, and I also find lots of old links that don't go anywhere (such as in The Wonderful World of vaping series) and I especially enjoy the diverse community.

I also get logged out automatically just when I least expect it. I find that extremely annoying, tho I understand because this forum has an incredible amount of pages and members. The organization of the forum is terrific and the information unlimited -- just amazing what all is available here -- thank you so much.

I'm just saying... for the few comments that I've read suggesting to read more or further or find the topic already posted... I assure you that I am (we are).
And I bet when I go to submit this post I will be notified that I have to log in again and my post will be gone! So copy/paste kids.

You are being pretty demanding of people who are volunteers and giving their time to help others.

Chill out and get to know the place a little better before you stomp your feet because you don't get what you want right now.

 

[Thrasher]

the search function works better when you use the advanced settings.

as for being logged out all the time check the remember me box next to the log in box, it will stop that. (annoying isnt it?) lol

as for the read before you post thing? it depends what your asking. why someone cant search for provari real quick and see there is 5000 posts with the exact same question already before asking is beyond me.

but something like what size micro coil for my protank head would be expected to be a little less discussed.

I always found the search function lacking on ECF its sometime easier to search google

 

[Amraann]

If you keep getting logged out it is something with your settings.
I believe there is an option when you log in that you can check that says "stay logged in" or something like that.

Perhaps a better approach would have been to simply ask here why you could not stay logged on.
Also although it is suggested that new members do some reading we are always more than nice to new members who have questions (even those questions that have already been asked)
Maybe you should have given us a chance and approached us with a better attitude? Just saying..

 

[Mark Anthony]

I've seen the same question asked many times and regulars here tirelessly answer them over and over again. You won't find a more helpful community than this one... Perhaps a little more tact before you fire off shots at the community would be fruitful.

I don't think mahiney was being rude or had a sour attitude, but rather very complimentary. Huh.

I wouldn't worry about asking questions if you can't find your answers via search.

and when you use google it'll give you better links to this forum than the search function gives you.

 

[kabonk]

I didn't find the OP statements rude or did I detect any kind of attitude. mahiney if you have any questions ask away

I agree with 34 Hour Reset completely

But then again people from the upper Midwest are always being accused of being helpful, understanding, friendly and polite

Don't hate us because we're beautiful, I mean, helpful


Oh and 34 Hour Reset? Did you choose that because you have Dish Network?

Just asking because I called in once due to a receiver was locked up and the tech help told me to reset the receiver, wait 24-36 hours and if it was still not working to call back

 

[Bawn]

also check with youtube lots of reviewers will answer lots of questions in their videos. good sources are pbusardo, grimgreen, vapingreek

 

[mahiney]

woah, I thought I was being rather appropriate, I wasn't stomping my feet or firing off shots fellas. Should have used a few more smiley faces I guess. Complainy yes, but that didn't deserve the defense brigade. Thanks to the coupla friendly responses, especially the settings to stay logged in - works!

Next time I will simply ask a question that I simply cannot find an answer to on this forum.

 

[Wow1420]

1. I check "remember me" when I log in and it does. I almost never have to log back in.

2. Google search is your friend.

3. I've been on some forums where if you dared ask a question that was covered anytime in the last 12 months you'd get reamed as a clueless newbie. I'm so glad this place isn't like that. Though a few topics are getting a bit stale, it's easy enough to skip them and move on to something more interesting.

LOL, no, but that's funny. 34 Hour Resets are what truck drivers have to take after working 70 hours in 8 consecutive days.

Glad that you got the settings fixed.

Now how about you tell us about your e-cig journey and any questions that you have ?

 

[zoiDman]

woah, I thought I was being rather appropriate, I wasn't stomping my feet or firing off shots fellas. ...

I don't think anyone thought you were stomping your feet.

Well, just about Everyone didn't.

 

[Nermal]

When I saw the title, I assumed it was a complaint about answers comletely unrelated to the questions. It happens. If anyone found your post rude, mahiney, it wasn't me.

I have no idea of how many pages are available for reading, but by the time I submit this post, I will be two pages behind. Enjoy the site.

 

[Huckleberried]

I never took the OP out of line so was quite surprised by some of the responses I've had a couple lost posts in the past, so I've done the copy paste thing myself.

side note..... thanks for the tip Thrasher. Never even noticed advanced search and it's RIGHT THERE!, lol.
