I will be honest with everyone. When i came to this health thread section for the first time, it really got me concerned over vaping. But as I am looking through the forum, an obvious thing struck me.
A lot of gung ho vaperers on here are out talking about mixing liquids, and trying new devices all happy and satisfied with their e cigs. A lot of people who come and frequent the health threads are doing so either because of their concerns or because of their negative reactions to e-smoking. I am starting to realize many of those who do not have either issues do not even come over here. This could start causing a misleading health thread where all you start hearing about is side effects and health worries. This might scare off people such as myself.
I think it would be a really good idea, if not already done, is to urge every user of this forum to take part in some kind of brief poll or some kind of statistic about side effects, and the pros/cons of e-smoking. That way before people even start reading all the possible side effects of e-smoking they have a general idea of what percentage of users are actually having these symptoms. It puts things into perspective. cause I am always wondering just how common are these "common symptoms" thread. If only the people experiencing them are posting about it, than it starts to look scary without seeing the other side. we need both sides to evaluate these things. This forum is a clinical trial as far as im concerned.
