But perhaps someone would take offense you calling a woman an unattractive female? WHERE is the line?

Derailing a thread is different the 2 imo arent comparable , everyone will derail a thread and it will get back to the Original topic , but Political or pornographic posts have to be moved …

Yes, it is getting ridiculous. The lines are not so clear cut.

It is not the derailing that is the problem, unless the OP makes it a problem. It is what you are derailing with, that decides whether it is moved or not.
I do, some members have lost loved ones due to gun violence and didn’t appreciated it to come across all the show pieces and bragging, so it ended.

Hopefully this makes things clear.
Hello everyone!
I just want to address the issue that has been raised here on the forum lately. Politics.
Discussing politics can be polarizing and divisive. We are a forum of DIY e-liquid mixers, and that is our main goal. Everyone, even complete beginners, should feel safe about posting questions and other stuff regarding e-liquid mixing.
We are a community if DIY’ers. But we are also all social animals and would like to talk to like minded people about something other than what this site was created for, so we have The Pub where you can discuss music and other non-polarizing subjects and that is fine.
This is also an international forum. While American politics can be interesting (for many reasons), far from everyone wants to read or hear about it.
While it is possible to have a discussion and debate over politics and still be friends and civil to each other, political posts should be somewhere where no one but the ones seeking it would see it. Henceforth, topics regarding politics should be made in The Saloon . And even then, you should consider the contents of your post before posting. We don’t want 10 new political threads per day. We want perhaps one or two threads where people that feel the need, can debate each other (we might even have suitable threads there already). Of course they can always debate in a private message (even more than two people).
We also have the Discord chatroom (which I really should visit more often).
Political posts with regards to vaping could be considered OK, but I’ll leave that up to your own consciense (and to our hard working moderators).
Flag the posts that you feel shouldn’t be in view of everyone and the moderators will consider it, and will possibly magically be teleported somewhere in The Saloon .
Also, if you read something that you don’t like - either flag it or ignore it. You do not have to react to everything. If you don’t like ice cream, you don’t stand outside the ice cream parlor screaming that you do not want ice cream. Nor do you, if you like ice cream, stand outside and try to force people to eat ice cream. That would just be weird.
Give love. Receive love 
Happy vaping, family!
Lars

Politics (etc) on ELR Forum - The sequel!
Hey all!
A while back we made an announcement regarding politics on ELR forum . We tried pushing that stuff into The Saloon , which is a bit more “Wild West”-side of the forum.
Something like a month has passed since, and we have observed and discussed it a bit more.
The general consensus among us, is that having political discussions doesn’t bring anything positive to the forum.
Henceforth there will be no public topics regarding politics, guns or religion.
You are of course welcome to discuss these topics in messages amongst yourselves, but any public topics or posts will be subject to deletion at the moderation teams’ discretion. A possible exception are non-polarizing political discussions that concern vaping (on which I assume we’re all on the same side).
If you come across content that touches on these topics, flag it and we will deal with it.
We need to get back to what we are here for. Our goal is to return this community to what made it so great in the first place: A family of vapers and DIY mixers all dedicated to the growth and prosperity of this great hobby of ours. A place where anyone can come and feel welcome, share in the fellowship of this community, and help keep vaping alive and well. The ELR Forum should be a place where you can come and chill with your friends.
Shortly threads will start to disappear from view as the moderation team converts them to private messages.

Reminds me of an incident we’ve had years ago where some nut drove into a crowd of people.
Bystanders were completely traumatised and I think they got some compensation, not sure about that, not the point.
People came forward, who had looked up the incident on the internet to watch it knowing what they were going to see and then claimed they were traumatised and wanted compensation.

I pray he is a believer. I know you are. I pray that He will give you the strength to deal with such a painful loss. My father died while I was holding him. It will always hurt.

I remember that happening in Nice, France. And it happened again in NYC, and again during the Kenosha Christmas Parade in WI. Too many incidents to count, and all done by a vehicle.
