Memory Time: Ever look back to your first threads and think...

[Burn_notice_fan_NY]

Wow! What a ridiculous or ridiculously easy question. What was I thinking?!? My question, especially for the old vets of the forum, what was your first question/thread? Which people helped you the most? Is the advice still applicable today?

I had, like most, lurked for a while before my first post. When I finally decided to make my first post it took me well over an hour just to figure out where the New Member's forum was.
I was so frustrated and confused. I had no idea if I was posting in the right placehttp://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/512705-where-i-start.html

I'll start off: Do you ever plan to stop or decrease vaping in the future? Is this just a stepping stone in quitting smoking? I am fearful of replacing one addiction with another and am constantly worried about health risks or nicotine dependency for the rest of my life. I plan to eventually switch to zero nic but I don't know if there is a reason to continue to vape if there is no nicotine.

People that helped the most: thereign and creepylady

Responses are still applicable.

My current thought/response to the question: take your time to lower the nic, no rush. Just remember to stay off the cigs and you are good to go. Worry about stopping altogether later if you are dead-set on it, but as of right now there are minimal risks and it is definitely healthier than smoking.

Thread Title: What are you waiting for in the mail?

First ECF Post by Me:
"A 7ml bottle of Halo SubZero 24 and two 5-packs of Halo blank cartos. Should arrive early next week."

So recently, but it seems like ages ago. My very first post in ECF. 20 February 2014, at 2:37PM EST.

Cartos. Heh. At least I had advanced to the point of filling them myself rather than still buying pre-fills.

My first post wasn't quite as bad as I was worried it would be...

"I'm waiting for some of that smoking liquid stuff to put into the little, cylindrical metal things with the cotton in them. Hey, am I supposed to take out all that cotton stuffing before I fill up the cylinder thing with liquid and smoke it? You know, like when you buy a bottle of aspirin at the grocery store, and you pull out the cotton and throw it away before using any of the aspirin... They just put the cotton in there to show that the cylinders are new, right?"

Eeeeww. That would have been a big, wet mouthful of YUK!
