I just deleted four posts that were not jokes in any sense. If it isn't a joke, don't post it. Now that the US 2020 campaign is ramping up, I would advise everyone to be extra cautious about political content. There are only two of us moderating FC and neither of us wants to baby-sit this...

Ah, so it's okay if it's off-topic. The suggestion wasn't inappropriate, the place where you made it was. Despite your intent, it was rude and was reported as such. I gave you a friendly out, but you chose to make it an issue. Let me remind you that such comments about moderator decisions...

Old guys like us sometimes forget where they are, but not to worry, I got your back so now you're in the right place. I'm pretty sure you know how rude it is to go into a manufacturer's thread just to promote someone else's device. ;)

I've been lucky enough to try the dab beads, so here are my thoughts. Before I start, you should know that I prefer not to call this a dab as such. Many (most?) people think of a dab as that high-temperature instant cloud that you can get only from really hot surfaces. This is not that kind of...

I just moved 60 posts to the Ghost shipping thread. Please post your shipping concerns and and updates there and avoid clogging this thread. I only went back a week, so there might be some posts I missed and some that were caught up in the sweep. I won't change that so please don't report them...

I've just edited the title of this thread to read "Crafty Plus" rather than "Crafty+". The plus sign was causing issues and it's possible this was one of them. Please let me know if you continue to have the problem.

The tinfoil hat picture in this post is about as close to breaking the Be Nice rule as you want to get. If you can't be respectful of another member's opinions, use PMs or better still, keep your fingers off the keyboard. I won't give you a warning point this time, but tread carefully from now on.

The resistance value is actually the fudge factor that is used to calculate the temperature for TCR, therefore if it is allowed to vary then you will not get consistent temperature control.

No you couldn't. As you should know, the exploit you refer to requires that you already have moderator access. You clearly aren't as familiar with the software as you like to portray, since information in PMs can't be accessed by moderators or even administrators. That requires administrator...

:bang:

You haven't broken any rules and you can post freely here or elsewhere unless you do, just like anyone else. If someone reports you we will deal with it. If anyone attacks your posting habits or style, don't respond, just report it. We frown upon attempts to moderate.

First of all, this forum is about a subject that is still illegal in many of the places where our members reside, and throughout its history it has been illegal in most of them. What risks do you think they are taking that they haven't considered before they sign up? (Rhetorical question, no...

I have no idea why you think that the two people left trying to hold this together haven't thought of everything you mention, and more besides. The only reason @Stu and I do this is from a sense of loyalty to the community. Believe me, it is not a pleasure, it is not easy, and it takes up way...

So your suggestion is...

Please stick to the VacCap topic. We have threads to test image posting and for posting pictures, so please use them. This thread is active enough without off-topic posts. Thanks for your cooperation.

Some context, however, does. I've removed your warning point since I have come to understand that this was intended as ribbing, not meant to be taken seriously.

This does not get you off the hook.

I can't let this stand. This blatantly distorts what happens. Yes, if you have a beef with a manufacturer you are allowed to post once and then you are supposed to take it to PMs. The reason is simple: we do not want FC to be a platform to bully a manufacturer. ("If you don't make me happy I'll...

I need to clarify. First, I typed "glass" when I meant metal. (Edited to correct.) Second, someone questioned this so I did some tests. The connector does get warm during use, but not hot to the touch unless you run it for prolonged periods at high wattage. I just ran mine for 20 seconds at 35W...

The glue is nowhere near anything that gets that hot. The glass metal gets mildly warm but not hot enough to be a concern. As far as I know, any kind of cyanoacrylate is fine. Edited to correct.
