well, thread turned out as I expected, hence why I reccomended the OP, as well as anyone else, to stay away from using terms such as 'cloud chasers' or 'tootle puffers' if they want to get anything out of the community other than back n forth opinions/arguements on those two dumb labels.
example: thread rephrased to, 'More Vapor Production' instead of 'Cloud Competition', then rephrasing the body of text to 'My setup can produce a decent amount of vapor, I was wondering if anyone has tips to increase my vapor production or enhance the vapor?".
using names just like cloudchasing and tootlepuffing just cheapens vaping altogether, just no. Stay away from dumb labels, we are all vapers. Using labels to divide a vaping community even further just evokes stronger emotions on stances that are just pointless to argue about because they are all just opinions.

I don't necessarily consider myself to be a cloud chaser, but I can offer a point of view on this. Before I made the switch to vaping, I was a tobacco smoker, meaning in addition to cigarettes I also regularly smoked cigars and pipes. After a couple of years smoking just cigarettes, I started delving deeper into tobacco culture and got into cigars and pipes. It was then that I found out how enjoyable smoking tobacco could really be. They tasted world's better than cigarettes and I was able to blow big, dense clouds -- I was in heaven.
When I switched to vaping (and especially when I started using RDAs), I was stricken by how much more similar vaping is to smoking cigars and pipes than it is to smoking cigarettes. I suspect many ex-smokers who are now cloud chasers (or even just sub ohm vapers) have discovered just how satisfying blowing large clouds can be -- just like I did when I first started smoking cigars and pipes.
I wouldn't consider myself a "cloud chaser". I use mostly sub ohm equipment, and I didn't get the vape I felt I needed until I had more vapor filling my lungs. The flavor is a plus, and the vapor that comes out is nice, but that lung feeling is what I crave Most of the time now. Flavor chaser? Nah. Sensation chaser is a terrible phrase though. And lung filling feeling guy is too much of a mouthful.
I understand where you are coming from Rocket and totally get what you posted ... if cloud comps survive the regs?

Vaping is quite a large range of different things now and most of us are primarily one type though we may dip our toes into other areas but by and large we remain in that one group so why some feel the need to go into threads they clearly are not interested in or partake of I can only see as looking to cause drama. As I said before there were different ways to smoke tobacco for those who needed alternative ways and vaping is the same and there is no right or wrong in terms of style of vaping. Live and let live if your into clouds or not be polite and respectful in the way you put your views across and if you cannot make your point being polite and respectful then you need to ask if yours is a point that needs to be made.
Your silly egotistical judgment is what goes round and round. Why not read the thread? Your comments are exactly the kind we need less of. You think working in a vape shop makes you some kind of authority on the matter. I think it means you should've studied a little harder in school.
Vaping isn't any more " near and dear" to you than it is to me or anyone else on this forum. There's different styles of vaping, in case you haven't noticed. Your style is perfect for you. I'm glad it works for you. I'm equally glad everyone else found what works for them.
I hear ya! Let's stay Together. vapers unite! (HHaaaha! Masters of the Universe!)i think the phrase you are looking for is vaper
Those lung filling feelingers though, gotta watch out for them people.
We can't be Trusted. i fill my lungs up in public too. I'm a proud lung filling feelinger. No shame.
My ego is about the size of your two fingers rubbing together. That is to say, nil. What I speak from is experience in the workplace. Whether or not you judge that as "authority" isn't up to me. I can only speak from what I deal with on a day to day basis. I never said I was better than anybody. What I did say was try working in a vape shop. After a certain time, you'd understand. Since you don't work in a vape shop, you can't understand, and that isn't being egotistical. It's factual.
As far as studying harder in school, you know zero of my academic record, and as such, your statement can be considered ad hominem.
EDIT: Also, I have read the entire thread.

I might become a supporting member, just so I can change my little description guy (title? Idk what it is) to that.rofl, i hope people dont start using that phrase now
In all honesty I've been following this thread all night and it makes me laugh at all the negative .... some people post and how they feel the need to tear others down for having a different style of vaping or in a lot of cases for ASKING FOR HELP AND ADVICE....it's rather pathetic really, wish people here on ECF would learn to stop flaming each other and starting petty crap....this is why the underground is better(I'll prolly get banned for that) so instead of hating on each other. OP I suggest broadening your horizons and checking for help in a few other "places"
a couple of opinions here, a couple of flames there, i sense the fire extinguisher is coming soon. These threads always turn out the same, I've learned just to stop arguing with people on the topic because theres no point and it always goes way off top to a cloud chasers v non cloud chaser v people who dont care but somehow want to give their opinion on other people giving their opinions.
so yeah, if you want info on cloud chasing, theres a cloud chasing subforum under RBA/RDA I believe, or if you chose to post it in general chat or any other forum, I'd suggest not using the term cloud chasing, and refer to it as vapor production instead
rabid squirrels on the loose.

The lung filling feelingers. It's very exclusive atm, but I'll talk with the members and see how they feel about a new member.
Sounds good to me
