None of it really matters. We're all vapers.
Kat has a really good line, that I would never do justice if I attempted to paraphrase it. But the bottom line is basically, we're all in this together. Let's act like it.
The Tootle Puffing thing was done as a lark. We were goofing about it one night on the phone, and just decided to start a thread. She didn't coin the name - instead only started what was intended to be a goofball thread - just to have some laughs. We certainly didn't expect what it turned into.
The whole thing turned negative in a LOT of ways. All of the sudden people are taking up camp, and the groups are firing shots at each other. It's SO FAR from what the intention was that it's no longer even funny. Neither Kat nor I are even subscribed to the thread any longer. NONE of the related threads, for that matter. And now NEW groups are popping up, with slight variations of one theme or another. Has the whole world gone bonkers?
It was SUPPOSED TO BE FUN. Just freaking vape, people; and ADVOCATE. STOP fighting among ourselves, and START fighting the fights that count. Forces are working hard to tear this whole thing down, and we're arguing about whether we puff, womp, chase, or WHATEVER????
Seriously?
Please....
I don't really see much of that negative behaviour going on over there ... the TP thread has become sort of a chat room where people post more about home repairs and water heaters than they post about vaping.
I can't disagree with anything you just said. However, I don't think it is the tootle puffers who are casting a negative "cloud" over vaping. I remember when the AR-15 and AK-47 hobbyist were being attacked by politicians in the USA. They were about to lose their rights to own such rifles. The NRA suddenly tells the "legitimate hunters" with actual "real" hunting rifles, that we must now support these clowns because "we are all in the same boat" as gun owners. A lot of legitimate hunters did not want to get lumped in with the lunatic fringe, nor be forced to support them. I think you are going to find the same thing in vaping when the time comes. I believe there is a fringe element in vaping, that may ruin it for us. You are asking us to support them. I don't disagree, but many undoubtedly will.None of it really matters. We're all vapers.

THERE, yes. But there are some other threads.
Trust me. She's been GREAT about it. Me? Less than...
What in the name of Poseidon is a tootle puffer?

Are YOU a Tootle Puffer?? | E-Cigarette Forum You should probably ask Kat for the condensed version.
And here comes yet ANOTHER thread/group!
KAT! What you've done can no longer be undone. I hope you're satisfied.
Thanks, DP. That explains it.
6x Yes on Kat's poll questions (6 out of 7). I don't collect driptips.
Edit: writing this puffing on a REO/Odin combo on around 0.5 Ohms/dual coil... Subohming!!!!

@DPLongo22, I know you'll be back. I'm happy you'll be back. But meanwhile ...
Makes me crazy - and it's farther than one might think - that folks rag on each other for how/what they vape. I vape so I won't smoke. Full stop. Sometimes I puff away at 12 watts and sometimes I make clouds at 40 watts. But I'm not smoking. Tomorrow is my Vaperversary. This is a miraculous event, and it's all due to a wonderful invention called vaping. I don't care what anyone vapes. Really. And I don't care if someone vapes at .2 or 2.0 ohms. If it works, it works. Good! Hate to sound Pollyanna-ish, but I really don't understand why we can't celebrate success and just. get. along.
Rant over.

I think what KD started over there is epic ... last I checked, it had like 150,000 views.

Hopefully they will have stock built up by the time I'm ready to order...Well, I don't think the black ti will be here tomorrow. I typically get provape mail in one day, but no shipping notification today. I looked at the website and see a "shipping in one to two weeks". So, it's going to be a while for that one. Sry I assumed it's like the normal P3s everyone.
Then by all means, you can't be a Tootler. One MUST have huuuuuuuuuuuuge tupperwares full of drip tips. It's the law.
Neither Kat nor I are even subscribed to the thread any longer.
Ah, so that explains why you were mute when I recounted my adventure this morning.
