OK - your launch seems to have been scuppered at both attempts. You want to go for a third try now this is all cleared up?

Ha! Absolutely. I don't know if anyone has heard but I'd like to announce the launch of a brand new awards web site call the 2009 Vapy Awards. Go nominate your favorites!

Hey folks,
Let's stop bashing Eskimo! He seems like a nice guy who is dealing with other problems that he mistakenly felt were tied to this. He had the courage to say I'm sorry. Stuff happens so let's just drop all this and move on. I promise that I'll not make another post on this subject.

Just go ahead and vote if you want to, and thank you if you already have.

um, ok. :confused:

I'm not bashing anyone. I've been defending you guys from the very beginning.

He did bash you, was one of the first to do so, called me names when I tried to defend you and continued to refuse to apologize until a whole room of people at VF explained to him that he didn't know what he was talking about. The only reason he had the "courage" to apologize was peer pressure.

I wasn't going to post anything else that touched on the Melrose Place aspect of this whole thing but I find myself in the weird position of wanting to defend Birdy and EskimoVaper at the same time.

Birdy and Nuck, you were the only two voices of reason when this thing started and I couldn't have been more appreciative of some sane perspective. I think you are both awesome.

As far as EskimoVaper is concerned I think his reaction was absolutely silly at best and irresponsible at worst. I certainly think he owes you an apology if he called you any names. I can't (and wouldn't) defend his original actions but he is the only one to apologize and there are a lot of people who wrote me saying they would apologize if they were wrong. I don't think it does us any good to be bickering like this ... everyone will be back on analogs at that rate!

I'm done. I'm not saying anything else regarding the chinese conspiracy. I don't care one bit about apologies. If EskimoVaper shows up in this very forum calling me a commie, I'm just going to ask him to nominate and vote for his favorites.

voidNIL-
Eskimo doesn't owe me an apology, it was an offhanded comment and he deleted it anyway.


Consider it dropped :)


Good luck with the awards!

WTF I thought this forum was about battery mods. Looks like it is about eskimoe bashing mods. I was just checking what people thought about the silver bullet. Evidentally only vampires are interested

This thread was supposed to be about the 2009 Vapy Awards but we all got sidetracked. Not so much about battery mods, which is over here. There are some people talking about the silverbullet over here. As for vampires, I hear this is popular. :)

Breaking news. Shenzhen, China.

A team of the country's top engineers, programmers, and movie monster makers has been assembled to work on a top secret project to corner the American personal vaporizer market.

For too long Chinese manufacturers have seen their profit margins undermined by midwestern women who buy their product wholesale and sell it for a 10% markup, and ingenious hobbyists who manufacture tens of units called "mods" in their garages. They're fighting back in a big way, in an effort to bring the Benjamins back to Beijing.

After a six-month study of American pv buying behavior, the smartest people in China have observed that it's not the quality of the products or service that lose them sales, but the personalities of guerilla marketers on the interwebz.

In time for Christmas, a consortium of Chinese manufacturers will launch TGWTPSH. That Guy With The Pointy Straw Hat will be a life-like robotic reviewer that will take over youtube, facebook, twitter, and all manner of viral media outlets that Americans trust most. Using the most advanced silicone rubber technology, stolen from the Real Doll, dressed in accessories bought from Icedoutgear.com, and equipped with a dry wit bought for $17 on ebay, TGWTPSH will warm the hearts of American Vapers while hypnotizing them with specially engineered electronic music.

A Chinese executive who asked that his name be withheld is quoted as saying "First we take their pv mods and their DIY liquids, and then we will boil down their children and sell them back to them in dollar-store products." When asked why the crazy stuff about boiling children, the executive smiled maniacally and said, "Because we're really just that sinister."
