Nope. I was told for years that smoking might cause it and didn't quit. No reason to quit something that I enjoy immensely on the off chance that it might cause it.

It's not really a fair question. The odds are much better that I could get hundreds of different types of cancer or win the Mega Ball lottery 12 times while being struck by lightening than they are of getting Scarlett Johansson in my bed naked. I would give up vaping, a kidney, and sell all those I love into indentured servitude for a naked Scarlett Johansson. Well, for a naked Scarlett Johansson and my own personal Oscar Meyer Weiner mobile. I think it would be fun to cruise around in a large hot dog shaped car.
If driving a large hot dog shaped car caused you to fumble with Scarlett Johansson, would you quit?
Been vaping for 5 years, been in remission for 7 months. And no, the vaping didn't contribute to it, my time in the desert did.
I'd cut down, and maybe if some times I though I cig would substitute for a lot of vaping, I'd do that sometime.
I stopped vaping over a year because it was harder on my throat (then) and other concerns, and started doing it again partially despite that, because I remembered also really enjoying it. It went better this time due to reduced expectations and bottom coils being less harsh.
I kind of think smoking is a lot less harmful in practice than you would reasonably think (e.g. it would kill you within a year), so I wouldn't be totally unbelieving that vaping could be more dangerous than reasonably expected (e.g. almost completely safe, considering smokers don't always die of smoking).

The short answer is no, because I refuse to live in fear.
The things I do every day just to earn a living are scarier to me than the thought, or threat, of cancer.

It would depend on the amount or risk. Breathing air in many cities isn't good for you. How high of a cancer risk? What is causing it? Over what period of time? I suppose you are asking if it caused more cancer than cigarettes in a short period of time (not likely at all), than yes, I'd probably ween myself off vaping. And I'd probably have a lot of relapses.
Well, the only reasonable way that could even remotely happen would be flavors.
And if that happened, I would just vape unflavored.
So if vaping propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin were found to increase the chances?
Damn, I don't know.
Well, let's make the assumption (if no other reason than it fits my point 
) that the carcinogen would be either the PG or VG.
Now, dint I read that PG was what powers the Asthma inhalers? Well surely we can't have all those Asthmatics getting cancer
from their inhalers can we?
So, once they figured out a new safe replacement, we could start using that instead of the PG or VG.

My priorities regarding vaping were and are as follows, in order.
1. Improve my health and chances for a longer, better life
2. Lose the smell and filth of smoking
3. Lose a very expensive habit
As long as #1 is even slightly better than smoking, numbers 2 and 3 still apply. I would however, try to quit vaping as I did smoking.

a hypothetical question deserves a hypothetical answer.... So, YES! I would quit vaping. But, thank God it was just a hypothetical question.....because I'm a vaping snob who has a ton of stuff that several folks feel I don't need.
And Izan saying "it depends on what Crackers looks like" was one of the funniest things I've read in awhile!

Aging should be banned where smoking is not allowed.
Depends on the risk factor involved. If increasing my risk only slightly. Certainly not. If increasing it more than smoking cigarettes? I would stop and go back to cigarettes. Get the idea?
If, If was a filth wed all be drunk!
If it caused my testies to shrivel and drop off Id quit. Wouldnt even have to give it much thought!
