Just use the ignore function. Trust me, It'll keep you out of trouble and everyone from turning on you. I've been on ECF since 2009 and only have 2 people on my ignore list. One from an incident a few weeks ago and one from yesterday. It's actually quite a nice feature.
For all I know they are still insulting me, but I just don't care now.... hehe.
Try it, you'll like it!

No, if he keeps it up I'll use the report to moderator button. It's actually quite a nice feature also.

Huh. That's a pretty darned good point. Thanks for saving me the trouble! (And it seemed like such a good idea. I should know better: when it's that good of an idea and that easy in one, there's usually something I'm missing :facepalm:)

The tube ends to the tube body will hold well enough, but that switch is going to take some work. I'll give that one some thought over the next day or two while I use it as-is.

Just found this!!!

Take caution with the locktite. I put some on the switch, same as you want to do but had nothing but problems after that. Loctite is not conductive, so it insulated the two parts of the switch. Getting it back apart and cleaning all the dried Loctite off was a pain. You may have better luck though. Since its brass, you may be able to just nick one thread, which will make it tighter to thread on.

To unstick loctited stuff, apply a little heat. Lighter, heat gun, soldering iron or such. To remove the dried up stuff, apply more loctite to dissolve it and wipe off. Or burn it off.

I've loctited the switch on a mech. The somethingsomething M16 or something. Only used very very little, and can't say I've noticed any drop in performance. A little goes a very long way with this stuff. I just wet maybe 2 grooves in a screw, dab it with some paper to suck off most... good to go.

got a link to that Mech? I know for SURE I don't have one called somethingsomething M16, but it sounds cool as hell and I gotta have one!
Is it a clone of the Chi-NothingNothing.

Sorry, I'm in one of those weird moods where I think I'm funny and no one else does... it'll pass

Sorry but a lot of that information is just incorrect. Ego are getting through. I got one from FT today. They are sending out juices as well. Every cell phone in the world has a li ion in it every Lap top, etc. They aren't going to stop all of these devices being shipped. The main concern apears to be loose cells. Also, these restriction have been in place for a long time. No one was enforcing them before.

Your package that says shipped but hasn't showed up on USPS will show in 24-48 hours. That is normal.
I never said they weren't shipping them..they just ain't putting em on airplanes (with that whole if there is a fire they can't just pull over and dump it or put it out thing)...I do agree with the loose cells part so I stand corrected

i came in here to whine that my packages have been sitting in the "Acceptance" and "Orgin Post Preparing Shippment" phases for over a week now. i guess ive got a few more weeks worth of waiting to put up with :(

cant wait to play with my chi you clone! and i really hope my twist clone didnt get seized. im banking on them perhaps not realizing its a battery.

all i wanted to say was, i love it's always sunny :D

How much did you order....over $200 worth of items? With large item shipping there is a surcharge that they aren't responsible for...this is why I order onesies and twosies and try to keep orders from getting too big...US gubby gotta get "their cut" ya know :\

Well this order was 373 and I have ordered an over 500 one with no surcharge. This was a customs charge I guess because of beef-upped security. Oh well, still got awesome deals

I think we are allowed $200 in value without duty. Fasttech routinely under reports the value on the package so I can only guess that someone did a closer inspection on yours and caught that it was under reported. :(

I have read here that some orders of juice were shipped, wrapped in foil. I was half expecting this for the juice order I got today. Turns out that they were shipped in the usual manner, bubble wrapped and taped. This must of came by plane. It "processed through sort facility" then hit San Fran next day. Maybe juice orders won't be affected?

    Well my order of just drip tips I ordered on the 13th came today, so only 10 days to get here, don't know if came quick because a small package.

    But my order of bike lights I made on 9th is still sitting in Hong Kong, kids will have to keep holding flash lights in their teeth while riding the bikes till they get here :laugh:

    At least my vape related products came fast :)

    Is that my incident?
    I freely use ignore and I know you probably know if I'm still insulting you. About the only thing it does is make you click a link to see a post so you're reminded not to respond.
    What's funny is except for the people who got on my list for "OUTSIDE!" issues everyone who's made it is gone so I guess I make the right choices.

    I have been following this thread and one on their actual forum to see dates shipped compared with dates received (no real formula I can see). I was laughing about the last few pages being all about a conspiracy against FT by HKP. If I was already angry about not having my order I would have been more so by the end. Instead I am laughing at people without correct information getting mad because of what the THINK they understand.
