So I went and created an account for ECF and apparently since I own a couple of shops I am not allowed an account. Has anyone else had this problem? Oh and I was not shamelessly self promoting, I was genuinely offering advice to people.

ECF is like the NSA...enough said!
Actually, this seems to be quite the common occurrence at ECF...and its one of the many reasons that this forum exists...If I recall correctly, the VU forum owner owns a vape related business, had a similar experience there, and got banned as well...their rules for vendors (and most anyone for that matter) are for the most part are bullshit and motivated by profit...you must pay tribute to them and then you are on a very short leash..
oh ok thats what it is, they want you to pay to use their forum. Nah I will pass this place seems way cooler. I was just wanting to post some stuff and help out people with some knowledge. Basically to kill time in the evenings lol.
Many get banned from there. I think your time will be better spent here but do be sure to check out the rules here too. Should take only a minute or so to read through them instead of 2 days over there. They also have many unwritten rules at ECF that will be enforced whenever a mod sees fit. The mods here are cool, you will see. Welcome!
Vendor Rules (painless, simple): http://vapingunderground.com/threads/vendor-sub-forum-information.254/

Aside from all that, welcome to VU! Have fun

And a belated welcome from me as well!
Lots of folks here (as well as a lot of other places ) have been banned by the Goosestepping Thugs AKA moderators over at ECF.
And we are glad to be home to each and every one of them.

Thanks Guys I am glad that this isn't a communist forum like apparently ECF is.

I assume you must have used one of ECF's 'ban words' - which is pretty much any word used to form an intelligent sentence

I still enjoy going over there from time to time and poking the bear but this place always has great advice, great people and if you have a question people don't just point you to some 9000 page thread that might just have the answer.
We let Okies in here? Man this place is going to hell fast lol

I own a tinee weenee publishing press that doesn't even sell juice or hardware or anything but a couple of fiction books and I got banned from ECF for being an unapproved vendor. They're idiots. Don't even look back at them.

Yeah, I'd like to welcome you here as well....
If I remember right,,,,the other place will only let vendors participate if you pay for a vendor thread,,,,but then you can only play in your thread and no one elses or you're outside of your bubble and they'll pop it when no one is looking and then be mean to you when they started it in the first place....it's kinda like playground rules....they're not written down and the meanest kid wins

I created an account there, was posting in the new members forum like I was suppose to and was banned
People see this section, get it out of their system, because they CAN, then find the rest of the forum, LOL. Some still bitch in other areas, as well. Looks like you've been here a bit, so this may not be news...
We have vendor rules here, as well. We're more lenient about them, but we don't allow spamming all over the place. We try to snag those as we seem them.
I know, its complicated. Just that there is a whole section complaining about another forum. Seems a little immature and childish is all.
Depends on how you look at it. It's a section of a sub-forum for people banned from other forums. The majority that are posting here happened to be banned from THAT forum. It's not a sub-forum titled ECF.
Yeah I know, Love it
I be one of the most childish of the crew and having a ball, although I have used plenty of these along the way, you can borrow some if you want.

You can't even write out "vaping underground" over there, that's banned too. They're total morons -- another word you can't use there, I guess because it describes so many of them. Truth hurts and all that.
I didn't get banned from ECF, but I did get suspended for a totally ridiculous reason, and I decided that my self-respect would no longer permit me to be treated like a kindergartner at the age of almost-55. Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke... or even if they can, fuck 'em anyway. Humorless control-freak MORONS.
Andria
Jeez, You've helped many people over there, and they suspend you !? WTF !! Glad you're here now.You can't even write out "vaping underground" over there, that's banned too.

It was retarded1, the most humorless asshole who ever walked the earth. Believe me, doing without him/her/it and also classless is no hardship for me AT ALL... even though I miss my actual friends there -- sometimes they come over here and say hello!
Andria
ETA: if I'd known what a great forum this is, it wouldn't have taken me 2 yrs to get fed up over there!!!
Welcome.
It's way more laid back here.

Yes they are. I'd like to take those forum rules and shove 'em so far down their throats, they BLEED and GAG and CHOKE TO DEATH!!!!!!!!!!
I told my friends on there I might come back if retarded1 gets hit by a bus. Or dies in any other way, as long as he/she/it is good and dead.

Then you have that jimbodaddy74 asshole. Fuck that guy.

Yikes, looks like I landed in the right place from the start.
Yet strangely, this thread piques my curiosity about that place. lol
It's actually a very helpful place for new vapers, and there are a lot of great people there, many of whom I really miss. Unfortunately there are several moderators who have massive sticks up their asses, and no discernable personality or sense of humor. They also have a list of rules somewhat on the order of War and Peace, and it's like "fight club"... the first rule is you can't say a single word about anything to do with the moderation, or one of those stick-up-the-ass no-personality moderators will stick their busybody nose in and remind you that you're not allowed to even MENTION the moderation... that's if they don't ban or suspend you for it, or for something they make up out of whole cloth. If you do get banned or suspended and try to contact them to object, they will then insult you.
Andria
I saw that, too.
