"C" is for a crude and often demeaning comparison to a woman's genitals.

Well... the founders all came primarily from a single thread on another forum. After a nasty conflict between an admin of said forum and one of the regulars of the thread that we called home, the mods and admins of that site descended on our little piece of the forum and proceeded to bully us into stopping our discussion about the whole situation.

User block vs ignore Tue, 27 Oct 2015 13:07:18 +0000 http://vapingblips.com/threads/user-block-vs-ignore.1245/ http://vapingblips.com/threads/user-block-vs-ignore.1245/ invalid@example.com (InMyImage) InMyImage
This feature normally only extends to your ability to view the actual posts that the ignored user makes, but you could still see when they were quoted and they could see anything you posted and could respond to it as a way to get to you.

Here I have implemented a feature that strengthens the ignore feature and makes it complete by changing it to a block.

So, when...

Aargh!!! How do you stop e-mail notifications?!? Thu, 03 Sep 2015 14:46:58 +0000 http://vapingblips.com/threads/aargh-how-do-you-stop-e-mail-notifications.480/ http://vapingblips.com/threads/aargh-how-do-you-stop-e-mail-notifications.480/ invalid@example.com (InMyImage) InMyImage
First you need to decide if you want to turn them off by default in the future when you watch a thread (frequently by posting to it) or if you only want to disable them for high volume threads that are choking your e-mail inbox.

The requirements for banners used for contests are:
  • No bigger than 728px by 90px
  • No animated banners
  • Banner must reference that you are running a contest. It does not need to be contest specific though, a generic reference referring to "running a contest" "go to the contest" etc is fine.
  • All banners must be pre-approved by InMyImage...

Some forums have an area with sub-forums for every vendor that joins and requests one. In my opinion this becomes a clutter of empty sub-forums that actually is more frustrating than useful since frequently they don't even have a post introducing themselves.

So... to promote your company and products you have the following sub-forums available to you:
