As the largest user base of the electronic cigarette users, the ECigarette Forum should and does have a huge role to play in educating the public about electronic cigarette.
It’s not a role the Ashtray blog can share in, unfortunately, as we have been kicked off the forums.
It was a shock to me, as although I was paying a monthly sum to the electronic cigarette forum I never received any warning or advice. I visited the forum one day, and found that my sub forum had been removed.
This was several months ago, but it was only a few days ago that I was told why. Apparently I was insufficiently active in the forum, grounds which, to my surprise, were sufficient to remove paying advertisors without warning or advice.
Not only that, but my ability to post, despite promises to the contrary, have been removed. This, to me, is more annoying. As is clear from this blog we spend a lot of time campaigning for the electronic cigarette, but it means we are unable to discuss anything in the largest e-cigarette forum on the net.
If you are unfortunate enough to be in my position, you will be looking for an alternative. I took the advice of Kate of Vaper’s Network, and have joined Vaper’s Forum, which even has a special thread (titled “The Refugee Camp”) for all the people who have been kicked out of the the ECigarette Forum!

At least one person who was embezzled by ECF managed to get their money back. If no agreed terms of use were broken then they’ve basically stolen your money and not provided the service they sold you.
They stole my subscription too by closing my account and I didn’t breach any contractual terms.
ECF is very biased in which brands you are able to talk about. If it doesn’t fit their PAID sponsors, it is not authorized to be put on the forum.
Kate: I’ve no idea if I was still paying when they removed my forum or not, as I had no notice that I’d been removed – I didn’t realised until I visited the forum one day.
I had a nice warm welcome from Vapers Forum, though! ECN – they promise no censorship there!
Yeah, there are hardly any restrictions at VF and they never ban anybody … just tease people mercilessly, ha. Just as long as you have a thick skin it’s a good place, plenty of fun, community elders and boobies.
Join the club! Seems I’m in good company. Sometimes I have to wonder who our greatest enemy is, the FDA, ASH and the anti smoking posse… Or our own..
