I read a lot, I was off the wagon for a while, but now that I am back and I am trying to help where I can. Back in the day I was just asking lots of questions, vaping sucked in 2009. We had to build our on mods, rebuilding coils was a dream of some, which turned into a reality. Now I am better off financially and have been trying lots of this new stuff and am loving it. Still problems with this and that, but for the most part, 1000% better than 2009.

:toast:Here's to the next 1000 posts and I hope it is me helping others along the way. I don't post just to post, mostly only when I have something to add or an opinion on a subject, mostly I read. Thanks to all that have helped me, and are still helping me in my journey to keep off the stinkies.

    Congrats on your 4 yrs! Better late than never. I can't blame any of the older vets for falling off the wagon, the equipment was mostly terrible ( if you didn't drip).

    I lucked out and came just when things were getting good, but I remember filling up online carts with weird stuff like Blue Foam and Teabags, and thinking " whatever am I getting into??".

    Yea the blue foam and tea bags were a PITA, but it was so hard to get a good wicking of juice, either dry hits or flooding. Then we also had the small mAh batteries, I took 6 when I left the house. And EVERY NIGHT charging them back up. Going through 6 to 8 attys a week at $3 to $4 each, yea it was a PITA. I have Real Respect for the ones that DIDN'T fall off the wagon like I did. But I am back now and rocking along with all my new toys. Have 4 orders coming at the moment, and have spent $1500+ in the last 3 1/2 months, but if I stopped buying I have enough gear and DIY for juice to last a Very Very Long Time. I just keep seeing all this cool stuff I have to try. :)

    Congrats! I also fell off the wagon for about a year. I was tired of foam and straw mods and filling up dinky carts all day long. lol. It's actually quite amazing how much the vaping gear has changed - FOR THE BETTER! It's like comparing the first generations of iPhone and iPad, to the latest models - massive improvements!
