Once again, create at least one sticky closed post that only Imeo can update.
this whole thing will be locked, it will be pre-approved by Imeo, and no one will add to it without his approval.

This could help people with problems such as the GG being fired by metal such as coins. Just one sticky closed post.
The whole thing will be locked,
there will be sections covering problems / solutions and hints and tips/

Keep on doing what you are doing.
We fully intend to keep doing it - it is a good plan-
made by good and intelligent people here.
Because we are clever enough to see when something is needed on our forum.

No matter how comprehensive it is, it is still a good idea. What was up to date yesterday, may need to be updated today.

We also know this, -- it will be updated by pre-approval--- again by Imeo, -- as and when needed .

Thanks again Drum for your nice reply, exept the last one.

Can you please tell me where exactly I "pretend that all ecigs have the same issue with the switch that your does"?

My reply was "As all manual cigs, with one more issue. But this issue happens once a year or never and the "e-cig in our pocket" happens all the time. And with GG can not happen as often as the other cigs with a front button."

Am I wrong?

Yes you are wrong, see the post above. Maybe you are right with newbies, but not with people who have used devices such as the SD for months prior to the GG.

No one thought you were a jerk, drum, and we understand that you were trying to help, and help you have..

Its hard with the written word and with little time, to explain all that is going on here.

So as it hasnt been said yet........

I was stating that no other ecig has this problem with the switch. I over stated it and offended one of my friends (you Imeo). I am sorry. Once again, all of the times my GG has been activated by metal, it would not have happened with my SD. Every time I put my GG in my pocket, I take off the atomizer. I did this with my SD as well. I could put my SD in the ashtray of my car (that has coins in it) or set my SD on the table at the end of a night at work (these table are made of metal) and my SD would not fire. I am an experienced user of vaporizers. I don't have this issue with any other vaporizer I use. I have lost at least 5 atomizers before I understood that metal contact could make the GG fire. For an experienced ecig user this could happen very often. If it was just an issue of the button being pushed, I would have no problems.

Drum the only I asked is "Am I pretenting"? but you did not answer my question yet:)

Well said and diplomatic as usual, Christena.

I'd like to add my welcome as well.

I'd also like to suggest that if anyone has a question - just ask it. Problem - post it. Even if it's redundant people are quick to help and it might save lots of time and aggravation from wading through endless threads.

Oh... and don't forget to have some fun, too.

Yes you are pretending. You are trying to pretend that your GG firing with contact to metal is the same as people not being aware of having a manual ecig. That is how you are pretending. You are not acknowligeing the fact that no other manual ecig has this problem. You are pretending that it is the same as someone putting a screwdriver in their pocket and it firing. This is not the case.

Another problem with these sub forums is that people are intimidated by the creators. I have so far gotten six private messages from people about this topic that don't feel comfortable posting. I have had the same issue on Puresmoker's sub forum, so don't feel bad. I am not trying to be a jerk, I am just writing what I feel needs to be written. I have no reason to kiss anybody's ....

i dont know whether or not to kill this one.. if the center part of the switch is metal and part of the positive circuit shorting it to the body could cause it to come on.. but then again so can pressing an SD button while in the pocket..

The above comment was posted by trog himself on the SD forum yesterday... whilst he was responding to a post where the GG and the problem reported was being discussed.

Trog, dealt with the post in a truly gentleman like manner.

I can only speak for myself but I am in no way intimidated by Imeo or any other creator. They are human like the rest of us. I, as well as numerous others, have made suggestions for improvements which Imeo has been graciously receptive to - being the open person he is and only interested in making the best and safest product possible.

If a person is intimidated that speaks only to their own character or self confidence (of lack thereof). Maybe a course in assertiveness might be in order.

now can we please just call this to a halt.. the matter was dealt with, your questions answered.

Problems happen with all e-cigs, they are not perfect ...yet

But people like Imeo...who by the way, we are not afraid of in the slightest...:) is doing all he can to perfect them, along with people like Trog.

They are all aiming for the same thing... perfection.

I have owned an SD for many months now. An SD can't be triggered on a metal table (such as at my work where I have lost a couple of atomizers). A screwdriver (SD) cannot be triggered in my ashtray by some spare coins. This is the difference. I thought this was happening because of a soft switch. I made sure I set my GG down as softly as possible. I then left thinking things were all good. I was alway aware of how and where I set my GG. I didn't know that metal could make it fire. I don't know how many times or how many ways I can say this. There is no way this could ever had happened with my SD. I have dealt with manual ecigs like the SD and the GG for over five months and encroaching on six. So...NO...this could not have happened with my SD.:evil:

Drum, I ask again, am I pretending? Is this what my post said? GG will fire more rare than SD or other manual cig and I said why. Its because his switch isnt on top. Didnt I said that its like othe3r cigs with one more issue? I compare things and the facts says: More often "front button cigs" will fire up in pochet or in the shirt's pocket than GG. And let me ask you something else. How often you put your SD in you pocket without protection?

Is is better to put in your pocket a locked button that fires with coins, or its better to put an unlocked cig in your pocket. What do you prefer? The locked is ok without coins and the unlocked is bad with or without coins. See why I am not pretenting? Its not my style Drum to pretend. My style is to see the facts and deside what is netter or not, and of course updating IMMEDIATELY all the issues even if the GG is better than other cigs. I dont want "better", I want "the best"

You are right. And you say it true. My bad. If you don't forgive me, you are a better person for it. I do like you and your post. I was just stating that some people don't feel comfortable going against the grain. I am in a very bad position doing it myself. I have offended my friend Imeo. He may never forgive me. Was it worth it? NO! I try to dig myself out, and the pit gets deeper. I still try to be honest, but I just sound like more of a jerk.

somewhere out there......
Sounds great to me. Problem solved. I cannot wait to read the bible...by the way I once read the other one front to back. It took me four months. I am not saying I have it memorized, but it was a good read.
Its a good read. The old testiment is fantastic...the new testiment is good but can be over the top. I read it once through when a kid. And did it again 6 years ago. it took me around 5-6 months.
