Shocking percentage of "founding members" who have voluntarily "moved on" because of the nonsense. What is intriguing is that this tells that the founding philosophy has drastically changed. What will be telling is, those were the people that won the awards for VU. I guess as long as there is a steady influx of newbies...there is no real reason to take care of the veterans.

I must disagree with you. A "Shocking" percentage of founding members? We have thousands of founding members. Our founding philosophy has never changed and was the reason the drama happened in the first place - freedom of speech. While we value active members - no one member is more important then another. We do not show favoritism - this isn't a contest. Our members are free to go and do as they please. This isn't a club, invite only, all are welcome here.

Invite Only = control
Invite Only = fear of opposition

We don't fear opposition - in fact we encourage it.
That simple fact makes VU what it is and nothing will change that.

I expected you do disagree Joe. This is just my observation, and was merely noting that it is a shame.

must be talking bout ecf... *shakes head.. morning Franci.. Hope you are doing alright..

Hi Whiskey... :) how's Sugar this morning?
No, I was talking about here. AU does not exist.....the Red Room is dormant, about 5 regular posters here....and out of the top 10 posters, over half have not posted since the "issue".

So should we be begging them to come back?
They don't want to be here.
Fine.
If the want to come back that can and will.
Have some came back under other screen names? Maybe.
Is this their personal recruiting ground for some new 'for profit' "area" that's invite only?
It sure as hell shouldn't be.
No one asked them to leave and no one asked them to stay.
That's called freedom.
Begging would fall on deaf ears anyway. And the responses of staff will be predictably what they are. It was MERELY AN OBSERVATION.

I summation....I still feel that VU is the best forum of the bunch.....but it is going through a major population transition that the new people will not experience.....just the older members that witnessed it.....no biggie.....just a drastic drop in fun factor. Not unlike the military when a group of mates get transferred. As a former employer I know there are two ways to get rid of unwanted weight......sack them, or make it so intolerable that they quit :)

Actually that's incorrect. Me and Tyger both apologized to them via PMs that they were all invited into.

We also made it clear we disagree with how some on their side were spoken too.

That is not begging....and their deafness in this instance is brought on by their own egos. Some WILL cut off noses to spite their faces lol.

You are correct. Its about ego and pride. Something I struggle with myself. I have a certain lady named @TygerTyger that reminds me of that :)

Yes, and I was VERY fond of many that are no longer posting, not even a friendly word of good bye or anything. It was very disappointing, but move on we all have, I am glad you are still here, maybe with time things will seem better to you. I always have fun no matter what and try not to let others drag me down into that pit.

Hi Whiskey and everyone. Hope sugar is feeling better.
Hey there Artemis, just got back from walking her, since she has been on the steroids, her movement is better and she doesn't limp as much, so I think we are doing what we can to make her comfortable:):)

I do not support any side....as some would wish me to do, and are finding out otherwise. I am here for as long as I am here, and those that truly loved me will continue to do so....the others will seek to fulfill their agendas elsewhere.

It's kind of strange how much things can change even if you're gone for a short period of time, but it is the internet after all. Egos flare, people get upset, and eventually they'll come back around, holding grudges on a forum for vaping seems a bit silly to me. A hobby brought y'all together initially and I'm sure it'll bring y'all back together.

Agreed wholeheartedly. The fact that it all happened is evidence that the philosophies have NOT changed.

You are correct. Its about ego and pride. Something I struggle with myself. I have a certain lady named @TygerTyger that reminds me of that :)

That alone is a full time and thankless job, @VaporJoes :p

Wise words, @franciscan ...
And, I'm glad to see you posting more again. ;)
