Myth: "vaping is a gateway to smoking cigarettes"

This is what comes from the media. When they tell us that vaping leads to smoking it makes me shoot milk out my nose!!! Why in the world would you go from WONDERFULLY TASTING juice to stinkies...... IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!

"only children like the fun flavours"

If kids are the only ones who like the fun flavors... I guess I'm a kid.

Ive said it in face book and other forums, it is the parents that are the main factors about whether a kid starts vaping. Same as smoking. Catch your kid swiping your smokes? Get a pack of (strongest cig in your area) unfiltered... *after I was done woofin ma cookies... i didn't start smoking again until i was 32* Same idea with vapes.. its up to the parents to limit access to their gear, "Well, if you are going to vape, there is no way I can stop you, but as a parent, you need to learn the safe way... Now, since you are new, we'll work you into it slowly... start you will a fresh wick.. just like needles, you don't want to catch something... and just 1 drop of juice... at ohhhh lemme see... 80 watts should be pretty good to start with...*

Now anyone remembering the first lung hit from a cigarette, and the first burnt sock hit from an under juiced vape never mind a good properly juiced draw.. lol...

Anywho... What people in general need to ask is why would somebody start vaping in the first place? I seriously doubt flavors will be the first response on any ones list.

You can turn a 100w mod down to 7w and get the same performance as a mod INTENDED for low power use..

I've actually said something similar to that. I use the word "comparative to" and qualify it with adjusting factors from ohms law. I wish my vplum had a rebuildable atty, so I could actually get in to is and change out the coil and wicking...

Maybe I'll do a couple coil build vids for noobs once my new cam arrives. (elves killed my old one.. they tried to take the video thingy from an old cam and put it in the newer one. Because the new one was 10x view and the old one had no working drivers.) It was the elves I tell ya! ELVES!

Those evil elves! I would love to see a coil build! Post it/a link on this forum if you do it so I can learn the ways!

If vaping had been around when I was a kid, I would've definitely done it. It would have been a good thing though as I wouldn't have smoked for so many years!

I would actually have to be the ONE GUY to say it.... Flavors is why I quit. There was such a better variety here than at Walgreens. Now there is more than JUST flavors that keep me here but, one of the main reasons I came to vaping was because of the flavor choices. The nicotine is just helpful to ween off the stinkies. Anyone else have the same view?

When I quit smoking I searched high and low trying to find a Tobacco Flavor that tasted like the Killer Sticks I spent 35+ years of my life smoking. Took me a very long time to find a Flavor I could actually stomach after trying literally hundreds. Many trips to the Vape Shop to taste test! Even after finding a Fruit Flavor that I could vape I said I would never be vaping a Desert or a Yogurt and now I have over 70 different flavors at present. I have come a long way from only being able to vape Buck Naked American Tobacco.

I truly never looked for something to mask the stinkies. Someone just gave me a combo that tasted like Newports. After trial and error with the flavor mixing, I found sweet dessert/fruity vapes are the best. nothing beats vaping a good custard. NOTHING I SAY!!!!!

Nothing in my post that you quoted mentions masking stinkies??

That would be mimicking the taste and not masking as in covering it up.

Yes, but don't forget my point.. My post is about minors starting to vape because of the flavors. Buying a 5 cent piece of bubble gum is a lot cheaper and easier than a $15 bottle of bubblegum juice and a mod to vape it on. Even teens have said it.. they never started smoking because of the flavor. Same with vapes. Who would go out and spend $100 on a mod and juice so they could vape blueberry ripple ice cream flavored juice? Its cheaper and easier to just by the blueberry ice cream. Now like you said, flavors help you quit smoking, but you already smoked, and chose vaping because it tastes better than burnt tobacco. So you didn't start vaping because of the flavors, you started vaping to get off the cigs, and the flavor helped with the transition.. right?

Holy Bat Guano! I wanted a ciggy the other day.. and I could have easily bummed one from someone i knew who was smoking.. the reason I didn't was that memory of how vulgar that cigarette was going to taste after being off them for 4 months, and knowing my taste had come back. God.. give me burnt cotton any day!

"only children like the fun flavours"

Yeah! This is true! As soon as I turned 18 I gave up all cookies and ice cream, and now eat only broccoli and parsnip and liver.

LOL.. ok honestly? I would rather eat a cigarette than liver.. but..
