I guess to some of you us "noobs" are irritating. But without newbies coming on the scene any business wouldn't grow. So when we ask questions remember that at one time you were here too.
We are just all trying to do the same thing. SAVE OUR OWN LIVES.
And that's a big thing. Sure it might(for me surely) become a hobby, maybe even an addiction. But some people on here are downright rude when all we ask for is assistance. Obviously it's too much.
I guess I expected more from this forum.
I too can't wait to blog all day about my new mod and how I've been analog free. But sadly I'm not there yet so I guess in the actual forum my posts are dull. And don't even require recognition. Let alone answering.
I apologize for being so uneducated about this whole process. I guess we shouldve been born knowing the difference between joy e and a silver bullet. My bad.

Oh no. Please don't feel that way.There are so many great people here trying to help others. I remember being in your shoes not so long ago.This is a great place to learn and make new friends.

I love noobs, and I do everything I can every time I log on to answer questions and help. Let's be buddies. Don't let these people fool you, they were all noobs a year or 2 ago. And compared to being new at somethings being new at vaping you are not that far behind. Don't worry no one ever goes out of their way to be mean on here, at least as far as noobs are concerned. Now get a war going over mods and stuff, it can get nasty!

Welcome to the forums! Sorry you had a bad experience.

Don't be afraid to ask. It's a room full of average joes. Folks know how to talk to people here just as well here as they do in real life.
Teaching and customer service aren't in some folks background and inflection and tone of voice aren't trasmitted well via the internet. (Although you did a good job ) Most on the new members forum go there to help so ask away. Anything you are doing to help yourself with vaping now is a step in the right direction but I have run accross a few who are very "enthusiastic" about what has and is working for them.

Hi Pyro! Welcome to ECF (from a fellow noob ) How is it going? I haven't had an analog cig. in 3 weeks today thanks to e-cigs and ECF. I have found that (almost) everyone here is eager to help anyway they can. I think we all have something in common- trying to quit smoking- which is very difficult for most people. I wish you quick success in quitting. Vaping is so much more pleasant Cheers!

I see a post at 10:59 asking a question on the lava tank thread and then another post that looks like you're upset about something about 10 minutes later. Is that what has you irritated?

Or is it something else?

Your other posts seem to focus on hardware, but read like you're not getting what you need out of the juice itself. Is that what has you irritated?

Or is it something else?

 

[Pyroruby]

Haha. I'm the mom of a two year old. I know how to get my point across.
It just sucks when im trying to figure stuff out and it's still confusing. That's all. I don't want to go all cheddar bob and flip out. But I look forward to becoming an anti boob and helping out later on to people who need it.

 

[Spazmelda]

I just read through your previous threads and it looked like you got a lot of good responses trying to help you out. The only one I saw where you didn't get many responses was in the super huge lava tube thread (lave tank? lava tube? I don't remember exactly what the thread was, but it was long). In really long threads it's easy for a post to get lost and buried, so try not to take it personally. Maybe try to post an individual thread in that forum so that it won't get lost in a huge ongoing thread.

Welcome to ECF. I wish you the best of luck. Did you order a Kgo yet?

Wow, I don't know who was rude to you for asking a question, but we as a forum don't feel that way at all.
Like you I was a Noob once too, and am so grateful for the help I received that I dedicate several hours EVERY day to help other Noobs so they will have the success I have had.

Now, if someone was having a bad day or several someones I cant say. It happens........ But please never feel that we don't want you asking questions because we WANT to help

 

[Moofaso]

don't let the negatives of the few outweigh the positives of the many. ECF is a wonderful resource and there are LOADS of people on here more than willing to answer any questions new vapers may have as well as offer advice. You have come to the right place to learn and to join a family.

 

[Retriever]

Hi Pyroruby! I'm sorry you feel the way you do right now. I come on this forum and learn a lot of new things every day. Believe me, everyone I've encountered here has always done their best to be helpful, and I'm sure if you will give it a little more time you will see the same thing. Anyway, I hope you stay around and give us a chance.

 

[strprswpr]

Have a little patience....You got a response to your question. Check back and you'll see.

 

[Vapeterry]

Hi Pyroruby and welcome to ECF! I have been on board for three months now & this is my first forum experience, along with being new to this PC at my mature age lol! I have learned alot, have along way to go still & have met wonderful people. Overall it has been rewarding for me & i have had some struggles along the way.

Remembering when I started on ECF, I always got help when I had a question but there are far less users logged in during business days, US time, so you might have to wait a couple hours depending on your issue. Pretty cool to get all this free help and support in my book, even if you have a bit of a wait. I'm glad you've gotten answers to all your questions so far and I hope you find your sweet spot for equipment and juice soon!

 

[cyndi]

The people on the lava tank thread are super nice. Sometimes if they are busy chatting, they might overlook your post for a few minutes. But they are super nice about telling you how to obtain the information about trying for a tank. I just saw your post, and I sent you an PM. I hope you try the thread again, and best of luck.

 

[Hoosier]

Oh, fiddle sticks!

All of us started as confused. These weird goobity-glonk words will make sense after a bit.

Have a chuckle and check out the blogs from someone who had to make up their own words to make sense of it all. E-Cigarette Forum - they gave lolady a blog and now look! - Blogs

 

[SCTony]

I know it can be frustrating I spent a whole week over the holidays reading this forum, trying to wrap my head around all this e-cig stuff. At one point I almost gave up it was so frustrating. But I am glad I didn't. So glad to be off cigarettes.

 

[Pyroruby]

Some people have been helpful. Don't get me wrong. And some have just tried to be "funny". Which doesn't help. And about the kgo. I'm sold on it. Also want it in black so I guess I'll have to go to DCV. I'd like a 6ml DCT for it but not sure if any is "better" than the hoosier one. should I even run a dual off a kgo or should I do a single. Yes would love a lava tank if I should stay single coil. I guess I use 1.5 lr with a tank. Not sure what resurrector cartos are but they sound dope. And I'm not sure if I'm a "dripper" so if I am I need an atomizer and a drip tip I think?
It's just confusing.

 

[Hoosier]

Well, that leaves me out. Funny is all I can do.

I'll leave you to the serious folks...

IMHO your starting off too fast and looking at too many more advanced things at once . Yes it's very confusing, maybe starting off with a simple set up would be best? If you like the lava, just set it up with a box of Boge SR standard resistance cartomizers. If you like it, then you can build a tank around that set up. Bit by bit till you get a better understanding and things become more familiar... I just don't want to see you frustrated to this extent. We can help make it simple
