The ECF Gastapo Strikes again!

RynoSerious · Jun 27, 2014

my story is summed up simply by stating the truth.

i found a thread where customers were bashing a group buy i hosted.. so i went through, and pm'ed every customer a gift code for their troubles...

they banned me for being an "unregistered supplier" ECF has since given me a limited account, which of course, i will never use.. THANKS TO THIS AWESOME PLACE

RoccoV · Jun 27, 2014

Ryno sir, I hear ya! Stupid rules with even dumber enforcers. I've been reading you're stuff for quite a while and you have always been respectful. Enjoy the day!

TheCraftyBuckeye · Jun 27, 2014

Yep.....same thing happened to Lucidious Rage when he offered to give someone a couple feet of readyXwick when they were unemployed and couldn't afford any new vape supplies.

Nice. Ban for life. That makes perfect sense.

RynoSerious · Jun 27, 2014

thanks rocco.. i appreciate the compliment. and buckeye, that how they work.. and the underground is going to smash that bullshit... guaranteed.

ECF is ridiculous... all in the vaping forum world is right now that this forum was created... soon everyone will be here and ECF will go under.... hopefully

The Refuge · Jun 28, 2014

Yes we have had our share of bad experiences with ECF, we are a Registered Supplier on there and and the Mod are like the Police, There is no warnings for much of anything just their way of handling issues is YOUR BANNED, some folks dont completely understand all the rules, so instead of helping them they just get banned, Also we couldnt understand after we had payed our fee for being a supplier, we couldnt have our name changed to The Refuge, it had to stay the same or could be changed to a different name but The Refuge could not be used, didnt make any sense to us, but what can you say? Except once our subscription with them is up, we are up unless some changes are made with how they operate things. We really enjoy the Underground and we will help promote it in anyway we can, VAPE ON!!!

The Doctor · Jul 2, 2014

Classwife is a cunt, and many of the moderators are equally cuntish, but ecf still represents the oldest and most comprehensive database of vaping lore on the net...For now. Trick is to read, not post. And if you do post, do it in the Canadian section....because Canadians are just cooler.

Funny thing is i heard that you might get banned for using the term Vaping Underground on ECF these days

EthelMaltol · Jul 2, 2014

Lol, we should see how many bans we can get from talking about the Underground!

ECF ... to much like high school, people have a small group of friends and hate on others . Others post and don't have the slightest idea of what they are
talking about . Sometimes you can get some good information, most of the time it's all drama .

RynoSerious · Jul 2, 2014

It happens.. And when you try to do whats right, and not in that " in crowd" they ban you for it.

The Refuge · Jul 2, 2014

I would have to agree with most all the replies to ECF, , we are a Registered Supplier on ECF and have noticed the group thing, If we knew then what we know now, we would have never went as far as we have with ECF.Its a shame that its ran that way,But the underground is a much more enjoyable experience for us, and hope its that way for everyone else here,

Holy s__t! (is it ok to cuss here?). What did I get myself into? I'm new to forums and joined ecf some months ago. So, now I have to act like some high school kid in a click? I'm too old for this shit. Just want to learn more about vaping. Am I ok here?

Yep you is.

You don't even need to spell your cuss words right!

muth · Jul 8, 2014

allrighty then, guess I'll hop into a conversation and try to get some questions answered.

cigarbabe · Jul 11, 2014

Hey Ryno!
They gave you a "limited account"?
What kind of shit is that?!
I remember when when you were just a poster with great gear! lol

If you type in Vapingunderground or Vaporjoes the word is auto censored. All you will see is .............., has been like that for a while.

That's what distinguishes social networking from straight forward support forums. S&Ning is important I think, but it helps if you're not a douche and have got one another's backs.

James · Jul 12, 2014

Well I guess the cure for that is tinyurl ?

deftones · Jul 31, 2014

To be honest, I don't know if I was banned from ECF.
First they deleted some of my early messages because they said I was flooding to upgrade my status or something... What the fuck is that? Isn't writing messages the point of a forum? I really don't care how many messages I've got. I do care when it's deleted though.
Then to my surprise, one day I came back and I couldn't post anymore. Forbidden. Anywhere. Even in the noob section. So I tried to PM a moderator to get help, or at least an explanation. Forbidden too. So basically I could only log in to read stuff and receive PM, but no more writing or answers of any kind for me. Like some kind of virtual-shut-your-mouth shit. Maybe someone was pissed off with something I said? Who knows. I gave up.
At least here I can type ECF without censorship.

I wonder how many inventive ways one can spell Vaping Underground

VU has become Voldemort...er....the one that shall not be named haha
