Among some circles of society it's the worst thing you could ever call someone. About 20 years ago I was in Edmonton (I'm told by some the term started there and has spread North America wide since, unsure how true that is) and I called someone a goof and he was ready to kill me for it. I seriously barely escaped that night still walking. It's crazy , but it's a thing.

My point being that I think in general censorship is a giant slippery slope and it annoys me when it rears it's ugly head. I get it on ECF I guess , they're tying to maintain a good image so when new vapers or the general public find the forum it's not filled with F bombs etc.

Lol, I know eh. I went to type that last week and was wondering what they think it stands for??
My thought is that any of us could create any words from any abbreviation.

I had the same question recently... Apparently it also means f... The world.

I think I remember you posting this over there actually now that I think about it.

A very popular tattoo among bikers and other rebels.
:facepalm: I get it now.




Bad word test.

Goof

If they're not going to censor goof they should just let us use F T W as well.

Knowing what a goof is, I am not sure if you mean goof or goof. Bad, very bad.

In any event I get your point. I am not a fan of censorship but, also enjoy being an adult.....oh I kill myself, I really tried on the last part of that sentence to be serious.

While I certainly appreciate the time, thinking, engineering and machining that you put into each version of your switches I recently had the pleasure of acquainting myself again with your version 2.1. I had a small glitch with one of my V2.5 switches and since I'm kind of a normally lazy old guy instead of immediately fixing the V2.5 switch, I just grabbed my V2.1 switch. Since I am vaping my spheroids not my genesis attys I had no need to stand these upright. That V2.1 switch is also a pleasure to use. I have to admit that I'm anxious to try out the new Gpin and the new switch but the older versions are also nice pieces of brilliant workmanship! Oh, and have I mentioned that I LOVE my spheroids now :)

Thank you very much and I believe you are right. Whoever has an older version of our mods, there is no need to upgrade them to v3, they'll serve their purpose for a long time :)

Well, that's just plain goofy.

I just finished reading a thread over on the Pit about spheroids. The thread is called "same setup, different result" and I think those guys need some help with the amount of fluff to put into the spheroid. I personally know that the assistance from Q and Idaho helped me immensely! I may try to assist but I'm not really a very good spheroid spokes person as although I've owned my first one for over a year I only recently got it setup correctly. I'm not quite sure why I gave up so early on in the process but spent hours, days, weeks and months learning to set up my genny's. Anyhow, both of my spheroids are working perfect now. I think the main key was that I stuffed way too much fluff into it early on. Now, I do NOT overstuff the fluff.

The tone over at the Pit is way different than the tone over here though so be careful how and what you post or be prepared to be crapped on quickly by most everyone. Good reading though :)

It is primarily an advanced user's forum originally set up to discuss gennesis atomizers I think. They now review a lot of mods and attys, mostly mechanical mods, and seem to be generally very critical, highly opinionated, somewhat biased (IMHO) but there is a lot of good reading to be found there. Most certainly not as friendly as this site/thread but as long as you are kind of "thick skinned" (and I am) there appears to be quite a lot of good info on high end mods. DO NOT mention clones but most of us here already don't like "clones" anyway.

I suggest a good reading of the Spheroid thread over there, before even thinking of commenting (sick), it is huge and at least 3 deep tutorials for Spheroid came from these guys. The old timers of VapePit know very well their stuff and their sense of humour is one of a kind, pure British! They appreciate well-crafted devices and if there is any minuscule detail out of specs in any device, they will spot it at once and they will suggest improvements. Great Britain has a reputation of having very high standards of precision engineering and they make exceptional mods and legendary ones like Hellfire.
