There is one moderator who seems to be a bit too serious

[Patrick O'Brien]

I love this forum and have learned SO much. The users are nice and the "Veterans" are pretty cool. I have noticed one mod who seems a bit strict and edits a lot of posts that really dont need it. She also has removed some posts I was interested in reading. We are all obviously adults here, so I dont see why she is so strict.

Also, what is a vapers wall? A few members have mentioned this and I would like to get on it or learn more about it. Thank you in advance.

There is someone....or a few.....on every forum in the world. I used to be pretty active on a Honda Ruckus forum and even wrote a few helpful tech tips until someone we unfondly referred to as "scooter nazi" gave me a bunch of BS for not having some "the forum is not liable for info from me" garbage all over my write ups, even though that crap was posted in the subsection.

To sum it up, these types of people are typically unemployed, unsocial in reality and want to "be a boss" or authority figure but failed to meet the physical or mental requirements of the position.

Remember when the biggest d-bags in your senior class would pick on freshmen to try to feel better about themselves or prove they have some purpose in life???? That's what you are dealing with.

If you familiarize yourself with the rules, you won't have any problems or have to worry about anyone being "strict". ECF is a family- and work-safe forum. Rules are enforced for a reason.

The mods do what they are supposed to do. mods are to make sure the rules are followed.

Here is a good post to read about the mods http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...surviving-first-contact-moderation-staff.html

See, you already broke Rule 9a-2, lol

But in all seriousness, I understand keeping drugs/pornographic/ect off the site because with all the legal situations happening state to state, ECF has become a "wiki" for the general public to see that vaping is not a bad thing. None of us want a politician looking for vaping info to stumble into a vaping forum that is talking about illegal narcotics and think the two go hand n hand, right?
