Even though Greenlane owns the forum, it will remain a separate entity to the other sites. Vapecritic will still have affiliate links. The forum will still have content based around what you all want to chat about.
We aren't changing the rules, and we aren't removing any manufacturer or website accounts. We just ask that those manufacturers and website reps adhere to the same guidelines as before.
Bud created one of the best places to get info for our industry. We want to improve upon it, and make it better and easier to use for anyone that finds it.
The current 'Shop' button will be changed in the future. We are planning on creating a list of vapes you guys really love, and directing that link there. What do you think?
My job here is to listen to your feedback, and make improvements based around them.
Our current goals:
- Create a list of your favorite vaporizers
- Update the content on VapeCritic
- Switch out the SHOP link
- Find content creators within the forum that are open to reviewing products that need updates on VapeCritic
*Please shoot me a message if you're interested in helping us do this!*
- Reopen the forum to new users
- Listen to your feedback and make adjustments based on it
- Provide a strong educational role
We won't be censoring anything, we won't be stopping you guys from creating content and posts. We're actually extremely excited to see the forum have new content, and we hope you are too.
If you have any feedback, or any questions, please let me know! I'll make any updates in this thread going forward
We'd like to do a quick giveaway, anyone who shares their top 3 vapes will be entered to win. USA shipping only, 21+ =)
1st Welcome, 2nd Thx Zakk for your input and showing us what are your plans for the VLF forum, im glad to see someone wanting to continue Buds view and taking the steps to do it!
All the best!
Cheers :cool:
Bruce, I really appreciate that you took the time to give feedback. It's more important than I think most people realize, and you voicing your opinion let me know that we could improve. If you ever have any comments feel free to reach out my dude!
VLFZakk you are perfect for this situation. Your imagination is what will raise VLF to the next level.Hope the powers that be keep their interference to a minimum and let you flex your muscles. Excited for you & us.
alright Bruce, you wanting to be a mod is an completely awful idea, reflects an utter lack of conscious awareness of your history on this board, and the only proper response to reading it is a slap to the forehead.
Oh, and Zakk was just being kind.
Is that enough of “a pair” for you or shall I go on?
I figured being a mod would be helpful, and possibly stop the abuse I take when I post. Its all good I truly dont care what people say. I enjoy learning on here and any insult has never bothered me. I would stop posting if it wasn't part of being an asset to this forum, but I have received much support in the past when the very few people would dislike me or my posts. Its all cool I can live or live without.

You've not taken much "abuse" here Bruce, if anything you've been extremely rude to the people who gave up their free time to maintain the forum and the forum itself multiple times. You're the only member who's had to be told constantly about posting in the wrong threads or making identical threads to what you had already made. The same goes for derailing threads with jokes outside the joke or meme threads. There comes a point where everyone gets fed up with having to explain the same things over and over, especially when this was just voluntary.
I would rather not get into this whole song and dance again but this victim mentality you seem to portray is completely false.
Can we just try and move forward with the forum changes and keep everything civil. ?
Hopefully when things are up and running this site will be fun again. The powers at be should hurry because maintaining an image on the internet doesn't last long. People are eventually going to forget to check in when there is a major period of inactivity.
Word gets around. Memories are not dead and buried.
There is always room to grow into, opportunity for renewal, rebuilding, recollecting, resurrection.
Transitions can take take time. Everybody is under pressure. Most people are trying their best.
VLF is not exactly an endangered terradactyl.
I do hope Bud can stream again though and of course hoping he and Hazel are doing okay. They must be moved by now? Surely. Hopefully getting organised, settled, looking forward in life again.
I look forward to hearing and hope to hear good news.
Meanwhile, VLF is still here? Every current thread is still running? All non banned members are still free to post.
Just no visible genie and a magic lamp. It’s the people that make the place, we are the people.
The whole world is going through a major bummer currently. It will reflect everywhere.
Zack your great. I am excited for you and Vapelife. Its my time to say goodbye for now. Please delete my account, I am looking forward to seeing your newest video's. They are very well done. Bruce
I had thought we were past this now Bruce especially as the last reply was over 4 months ago. I'd rather not delete your account and leave it open if you decide to return. If you don't want to check in or post that is your choice though.
