Hello all, another newbie to the community

[Scames21]

So I've been a pack - 2 pack a day smoker for about 10 years. Been off for about 3 weeks except for a "mulligan" during a beer pong party last week. Met a couple people at my school that vaped and decided I'd go join a community. So ... here I am =) Just wanted to drop a hey folks and introduce myself.

I started on the blu cig pack when I quit smoking and quickly realized that it wasn't giving me the satisfactory hit that I needed so I did some research and ordered a Halo G6. I plan on getting a legit setup sometime in the near future but a) I wanted to kind of start from the bottom up instead of going for the top right away and b) I wanted to have an actual cig type e-cig to look a little more normal when going around everyday activities.

So again, hi guys! I plan on being a long time community member and I'm really enjoying the experience of not smoking anymore. I have so many more flavor options and feelings that I can tweak that a smoker simply doesn't have!

Btw, pardon me if my etiquette isn't up to par either, as weird as it is this time and day this is actually the first forum I've ever joined as well.

Welcome to the party, eerr I mean forum..! This is a great place for information and nice start. It helps to know more what you're looking for before you start spending on things you may not be happy with. Good luck!

Welcome!!!!!! and Bawahahahahah!!!!!! Surely you jest? vaping pure pleasure in something that looks like a anolog?!?!?! Give yourself a few more weeks and normal be damned, you'll walk out of your home with something similar to half a set of futuristic nunchukas, a tank of fully loaded bliss! You may even have a spare battery, a stow away pack with other exotic juices, 6 mg, 12 mg, 18 mg, a charger, 2 chargers!!!! 1 for the wall, 1 for your computer........maybe one for your vehicle! Extra coils and heads, wicks........

Seriously, this is the biggest bunch of enablers I've ever joined ranks with (well, except "Hatchaholics", and I'm cured, ignore the emoticon).
Congrats on your journey into Vapelandia, may your batteries always be charged, your e-juices superb, and your adventure unending!!!

PS. Don't say you haven't been warned!!!! LOL!

Welcome to the forum, Scames! Glad you found us, and ecigs!

Welcome to the forum. As your needs change, so will your thinking. All newbies want something that has to look like a real cigarette, yeah, me included. When you reach the point that your need to stay off the cigarettes(we call them analogs here in the vaping world) supercedes what it looks like, you will start to wonder why in the world did it have to look like a real one? Think about it. Smokers are the step-children of our society. We are looked down on, treated as if we were lepers, and generally dismissed as real people with real needs. With ecigs we no longer stink so no one knows that we even partake in ecigs. all they know is that we don't stink anymore, therefore we become acceptable to them. Now keep in mind, I really never gave two hoots to what anyone thought of me, smoking or not. but I quickly realized the difference in treatment when no one could smell smoke on me anymore. For some vapers who haven't smoked for a long period of time or haven't smoked as heavily as others, they may still want a look alike because it staves off the craving for real analogs. but the hard core smokers learn very quickly that those look-a-likes just aren't powerful enough to get the job done.
Sorry for the long-winded reply. guess I just needed to get that out there.
Happy vaping.

This is probably the best reply I've seen so far. You're awesome.

Welcome to the adventure Scames. I was dead set on a ciaglike too, then the guy at my local brick and mortar talked me into an ego setup (futuristic looking for sure.) I'm loving it!

Vape strong!

Welcome and best of luck!

Talk about some quick replies lol. I have to say I just tried out the mini tank I ordered from halo and wow. It's amazing what a little difference can actually make. I'm officially light headed lol.

Nini, awesome post lol. I can already see that happening. I'm three weeks in with 2 different started kits, multiple empty carts a few blank carts, a box full of random juices, 3 chargers and a full bottle of VG. Plus a random disposable because my stupid blu died on my way to work one day lol. I'm a little scared to see what's in my box in a month

I'm pretty new as well, but have found this forum very informative and helpful -- I also started with Blu because that's all I could find locally when I decided to try them out -- I'm hooked and am loving vaping -- I'm also looking for a more legit set up as soon as I can figure out what to get!
