The only thing the news media seems important is the hollywood actors/politicians who stop doing drugs and then become reformed whatever happens to be the most publicized favorite at the time.
I have yet to succeed in converting others. I have been trying on my father-in-law, my co-worker, and two workers I frequently spoke with while smoking.
I still stand and sit next to them while they smoke and their smoke do not bother me and I most certainly do not look down on them.
With that said, I am pretty sure there are other vapers who are just like me (from observation) and that we are the majority not the minority as far as ECF members are involved.
When it comes to the media...I just ignore them because most of them are speaking out of their A anyway and what they do they do for money or from orders.
I'm lucky my manic period ended and dumped before I spent any more on gear. I was going completely nuts. I'm pretty sure I spent around 2 grand in a month.
The people who work in one of the B&Ms near me are pretty stuck up. They act like they're too good to discuss much with some of their clientele.
It's very off-putting.
The store where I bought my first kit, however, is completely different. They're awesome and extremely helpful although I think I now know more about vaping than THEY do.....lol

I don't see any elitism around here - that would be someone posting about their ego-t and mbv / nicoticket juice and being told to take a hike unless they get a provari and vape nothing but 5P reserves in it.
What you're talking about is just general dickishness, and IMO, there is far, far less of that around here than most places on the internet. Take a wander around any news article or youtube comment section, that'll crush any hope for humanity you may have
We all have our little quirks and preferences, whether it be grammer, word usage, clearo vs tank vs dripping, whatever - hopefully, most folks can just roll with it
The last time I went in to see if they had anything interesting one of the guys said, "Hey, she's got better gear than I have!"My b&m is wonderful as well, one person there has a setup worth a couple times my rent, but has zero issues spending ten minutes helping me decide decide on a coil, or just talking to us about randomness

I can't help it...it made me feel good....lol
I would really be impressed if one of these people I have given kits to would have taken it on their own to check out the links to ecf I gave them but noooooo all they do is call me with problems like it's my fault I tried to help them. If this generation is what we have to look forward to you had better plan on doing it for them.
Why give psyche majors textbooks anymore? Just let 'em read internet threads on just about anything. They all wind up talking about either the toilet or Hitler.
That is disturbingly accurate ...
This can of worms is half the traffic here. And entertaining as hell. Other half is cat pictures, but that's every forum.
How many times can you read a thread about how to rebuild an atomizer anyway? Why give psyche majors textbooks anymore? Just let 'em read internet threads on just about anything. They all wind up talking about either the toilet or Hitler.
I stopped trying to convince anyone on the web of anything. Just post for fun. If someone learns from me, great. Neither teach nor preach, just jam. Half my posts are jokes, the other half are bad jokes, I don't care. Just came to learn a little about my new fun hobby and found a bunch of weirdos, and joined the club. I really like so many people here, particularly the ones who just jam. It's like jazz. After a while you just don't take it all that seriously.
Here, everybody, have a bunch of Likes. ProVari, Innokin -- Come together, right now, over me.

I fully agree shorestyle, its a bit much though dont you think? I mean today I was told im just bull....ting around, and playing as a vaper because im still using a clearo not a rba, by the same person who talked a smoker.out of switching because they wanted to start with an ego kit not a mod...just kind.of irritates me.when I start seeing trends.like this
