contest and steals and deals threads

[Running Wolf]

If I'm breaking any rules feel free to yell at me, delete the post or move it.

I just wanted to say thanks for those two threads. Definitely both good threads for newbes. I wasn't wanting to blow a lot of money and be disappointed (aka fall into the newbe trap of getting something that isn't right for me).

Seems like now in days people don't say thank you. So just wanted to thank the community as a whole for helping out us new people, and more specifically to the ones who go out of their way to pay it forward, pass along some karma, and make the world a better place to live.

That's nice- good karma to you! The world is a better place when we help each other through it!

Yes, I agree, thank you to all those who take the time to share contests and deals with all of us. You didn't have to, and I appreciate it! Here's a big ol' hug for ya:

From the get go felt at home and never once hesitated to ask a dumb question.

Ya'll may not have restored my faith in humanity as a whole but know that there are folks out there go out of their way to help. You infected me with it. So far only advice I have had to offer new folks is what people have told me an my very limited experience with Blu & Mistic.

Also like the pay it forward attitude. I've outgrown my Mistic but have a few people in mind to give it to to start vaping. Would rather give them away to someone than toss them out.

Come on female mailman! Wolfie needs to try a real PV and sample some juices.

Absolutely, thank you to everyone who posts in contests and steals and deals threads! There's a fabulous bunch of helpful, giving people here in the PIF forum! I do so appreciate the effort you put in to sharing with everyone.

The minute I have anything extra in my vaping arsenal it's getting paid forward. Excellent thread Running Wolf!

I agree .There a lots of great people here that would go out of their way in a heartbeat to help someone out . If only the world were as great as all of you here . Thanks to all and Happy Holidays .

Str8V8ing - totally agree bout people going out of their way to help.

Bad thing for me is not really knowing who to pay it forward to with my hand me downs. I have three batteries and one charger (plus will refill a few carts). Not like I can send a bat, charger and a few carts to everyone. Everyone of the people I want to hand them down to I have a reason for. One friend has 3 kids and is paying out the ying yang for child support for them. With money being tight and the kids being around second hand smoke I think he's in the lead. Another person is a friend of mine's daughter (she's just like 20), might just send her a cart or two and a battery. $15 for a charger ain't that bad. Hopefully if it converts her to vaping it will also convert her dad.

Also will have to tell them about here and point out some of the tutorials/faqs I have found here.

Two other people I would like to have switch over. One former co-worker is 10 months away from retirement. This women is 64 but can run rings around people 1/3 her age. She reminds me of my grandmother on my mom's side. One of the handful of people from my old job I keep in touch with. The other person is also a co-worker. She was out for a while cause of some heart problems. Vaping anf heart problems might not go together but better than heart problems and smoking .

I don't go to the Deals & Steals like I used to but they were always so helpful when I was starting also -- and I do my best to post contests before spacekitty but there can be only one Goddess of the Contests!!!

Gotta agree with Running Wolf and put my two cents in...You guys here at PIF are the best ever!! From the treasure chest and PIF forums, to the deals and contests, to the fun game posts, I just love visiting this part of ECF. Everybody I've met in here works together to help each other and ya'll are the most caring people I've met in a while

Thank you all!!!!

Not sure "leaders" or "leadership" applies but you know what I mean. Leadership by example would be the easiest phrase that comes to mind for me.

The idea isn't just in the concept of of I have this extra and never use it anymore so I'll let you have it. It's also in the support of those of use who are making the transition from smoking to vaping. Having someone say "you f-ed up and bought a pack of cigs you fool" doesn't do any good for someone trying to quit/switch. Having someone else that's been through the same thing tell you that it's better than smoking a pack a day is the way you need to go.

Hats off again to everyone.
