What's with the new "warning" text on every page of this forum?

[glassmelter]

I hate it. I read the safety info stickies at the top of forum before I read anything else in this forum and find the new addition very distracting. If you agree, please chime in here:

I guess its good for a day or two to remind newbs but i couldn't take it if its permanent . Id rather people die J/k lol .

I've seen this a lot on other forums, there is a button you can hit to acknowledge you have read it, then it stops popping up. Could the mods add this button for us? I don't mind reading it and being mindful, but it's a little excessive right now. . .

 

[glassmelter]

A few people in the other thread also suggested adding an "I've read this" button, and I think that would be a really great solution if it could be implemented. I totally understand the need for the warning text and there is something to be said for having it front and center so that new DIYers who don't bother to read the stickies will see it. It would just be nice to not have to scroll past it on every page of the forum after already having read it.

Put it on the main page if they feel it is necessary....but not every page. Overkill and VERY ANNOYING!

Oh s***t!

I may have caused this. I received a bottle of nicotine today that says 100 on the label, which scared the hell out of me. Thus, I did some searches to try to track down what I really had before I did anything with it, and perhaps scared the moderators.

If so, my sincere apologies to everyone. To the moderators: I am a chemist, and know well the dangers 100% nicotine. That's why I did the searches, before I took the sealed bottle to the nearest hazardous waste facility.

Please, sorry if I scared you, but don't make everyone else suffer. To everyone else, I really can't apologize enough for my inadvertent stupidity.

Don't worry about it Morgan. The owners have probably been working on this for some time in order to limit liability and it was just a coincidence that it appeared when it did.

I agree that it would be nice to have an "I have read and accept" box to click.

You where sent 100mg or 1000 pure freebase Nic ?

Turns out it's 10% nicotine, or 100mg/ml, but that wasn't clear on the label.

 

[Shilo]

Make it go away daddy! I read it 22 times now!

What was clear on the label exactly ?

 

[SuperLuckyLady]

What was clear on the label exactly ?

Pure nicotine liquid 100vg 10ml. That's it exactly. I now realize the 100 refers to 100% VG, but the '100' together with the word 'pure' gave me pause.

I have to add that to a chemist, well to this one anyway, the word 'pure' means exactly that, not a 10% solution. The supplier's website, however, does say 100mg/ml. Me bad.

The warning text needs a "I read this already icon".

 

[Str8V8ping]

It feels like i have a yellow piece of paper covering the whole top half of my monitor . I paid for a full monitor guys i would like what i paid for . lol . So much for having a dissapearing firefox toolbar option . Lose one tool bar gain another . SMH lol

If im at the top of the page it takes up the entire screen . I guess they didnt realize that not everyones old here haha . Cmon guy i can read the damn thing from the other room with one eye shut and nicotine splashed in my other eye .

Disclaimer : DO not take my words seriously .These are just Bar jokes ,rule bar that is but seriously its not a joke. That thing is huge .lol

 

[Running Wolf]

I was wondering about that.... Would be nice if you had a nice little check box to say you acknowledge that you read it, and to clear the ECF "runner folks" from legal responsibilities. Maybe after checking it just have a one or two line warning to the effect of:

Nicotine in higher concentrations is dangerous to humans and animals. Please be careful, when it doubt err on the side of caution

I've seem them do this before and after a few days they made it collapsible with the X.
