Thanks AD, I agree reading their other posts they are just trying to get a free vape kit off of other folks. It really ...... me off, I am glad I looked around to see what was happening before I just sent off gear.

I'm glad you did, too!
I also checked out some of their other posts, and yup, this one is just a "taker" (and that's being extremely polite to them).

I saw that thread yesterday and the first thing that popped into my head is this guy has seen a few of the threads where people have had their mods stolen and people step up to help. Unfortunately for him he is not very good at what he is trying to do.

But very fortunate for the folks that were ready to step up.
Good people here. Only a ...... would try to scam them/us.

Yeah, you gotta get a feel for someone before you start handing out freebies. I would never whine about anything to strangers. I might whine in PMs to folks but never start a thread...I've seen that happen many times over on the web. It doesn't matter what the forum is for there are always scammers trying to get a lot for nothing.

I've got a soft spot for the less fortunate. I try to help anyone I can, even thought I'm not so "fortunate" myself, but scammers kinda ruin it for everyone.

I think most of us that have ever struggled feel the same. You are right about the scammers, though.
Unfortunately, the Internet is a perfect target for them.

That was an interesting thread!

Coincidentally, I'm going through a rough patch myself. I'm down to about 1/3 of a 50ml bottle of Virus, and only have 2 more full bottles of it on-hand. With Christmas coming up, I'm thinking of treating myself to another Reo mod, and I'm worried that I'll go through all of my Virus before I can order more without my wife finding out. If that happens, I'll be forced to use Boba's Bounty in my new Reo for a few weeks. If anyone can send me a few bottles of Virus, or maybe Wakonda, that would get me through till about February or March, but then taxes will be due.

I'm soooo upset! Someone stole my only Bugatti.
Anyone have an extra they can let me have?

Lol!

They just deleted it but a guy came on saying his mod had been stolen and asked if it had happened to anyone and how he was going to have to go back to cigarettes. When people started jumping in to help him he acted like some of the stuff wasn't good enough and he wanted a dripper lol. Made himself out to seem like a tool.

That liter of Virus I sent out to you must have gotten lost in the mail. Sorry!
