Post your embarrassing thread that you made when you were new

[Butters78]

I've come a long way since when I first started last year. I use mesh, cotton, rba's, making my own juice etc. When I was new I was clueless. So clueless I didn't understand the concept of putting a carto on a battery lmao.

So how about some of those old threads you guys started when you were new.

Here's mine. Oye vey I was clueless.

I dont even want to know, but I have had 2 posts that got zero replies. Condsidering the activity of this forum. That is quite a feat. Or defeat.

One ,they were so stupid as to be ignored, or two, I am such a genious as to ask an unanswerable question. What is the meaning of life?

 

[Arnie H]

Well one of my threads got deleted (apparently for violating forum rules) so I cannot link it.

I have mixed feelings about this. I understand we don't want more negative attention drawn to e-cigs, but some of it I think borders on paranoia. I was simply asking about experiences adding various herbal extracts to e-liquids. Valerian for example.

I don't think we should feel embarrased about our early posts, its all about learning, and e-cigs, being electronic devices have a rather steep learning curve. Ohm's Law? Watts? Wick and wire? mAh? RBA's? Analogs? DIY? Mods? APV's? Tanks? Clearomizers? 808/510/Ego? Etc. Etc.

Lol, I just checked and discovered I only started 8 threads.

All of my threads and posts have been awesome.

Here is mine, from four years ago...
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...newbie-what-do-you-guys-think.html#post370730

Over time I moved up from the 510 to a Chuck.
Then I moved up from 3.7 volt batteries to 4.8 volt NiMH batteries in the Chuck.
Then I moved to variable voltage with the Ego Twist.

But I am still striving to get back to that cigarette form factor.
That is why I have recently been buying some White Cloud Mini Flings to have around.

TY for the share DC2. I did enjoy reading that. It was like a bit of history. I an only 7 month in and I have seen it change in my short time. It is nice to see our background.

The newbs have no idea how good they have it these days.
We had to walk uphill in 100 degree heat while it was snowing just to get a good vape back then.

 

[glasseye]

I don't think it's embarrassing, but it does make me nostalgic a bit. Not one mention of a certain company that I won't mention. Ah, those were the days. lol And I still think some juice tastes better with the little 510 batteries.

I've only started 6 threads! But... two of my earlier threads had 0 replies, so that kind of messed with my mojo...

Here is one of my clunkers that no one replied to:

Hi DeadCat

Oh, but I do appreciate all the stuff you all went through. If it weren't for you guys keeping at it, we most surely wouldn't have the stuff we have today. So, Thank You!

Musta changed your name somewhere along the way.

Edit to add my very first post

I've only made two threads, and I guess my second one is somewhat embarrassing.

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/tank-mods/279210-another-simple-ce2-syringe-tank.html

Oh, how equipment has changed in only the last year or so... The things that we have done to improve our vaping experience... I started with cartridge mods like the straw/blue foam/pyramid teabags/pipe screens, got tired of those, went to cartos, disliked the filler taste, tried a cartotank, hated it, found CE2s (which were pretty new), liked them, and decided I wanted a tank for those.

A bunch of Vivi Novas, a few RBAs, and some eVods later, things seem a lot simpler these days, though I still choose to complicate them by modifying them.

My first thread almost 2 years ago: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/215420-hello-new-overwhelmed.html

I was trying to find cartomizers to fit the crap cig alike I had purchased.

I wasent even that new but I posted this thread downing the Mad Vapes air flow control when it worked perfectly fine just the dummy who bought it misunderstood ist propose;-)

 

[Spazmelda]

Robino- I'm laughing at your thinga-ma-bobbie description.

I don't have any threads that I believe are embarrassing, but I do have a "first vape" newbee story that I'll post here...

When I started vaping, I bought a 901t kit online and had no clue how to use it and it didn't come with instructions. Like the eGo-T and eGo-C, the 901t used small (.9ml) tanks to hold the liquid and it was fed into the atomizer through a spike on the atty and a hole in the cap of the tank. Two of the tanks that came with the kit (that were installed) were "display only" tanks and didn't have the cap, but I didn't understand the purpose of the cap on the other tanks in the kit. I was completely clueless.

So, I filled the (display only) tank that came installed on the atty after charging the batteries and proceeded to give this new technology a try. The first draw on the device worked fine, as did the second, but on the next draw the purpose of the cap became very clear. The contents of the tank completely emptied into my mouth on the third draw, and it was tobacco flavor (yuck)! I had to brush my teeth for 10 minutes and gargle with Listerine several times to get that taste out of my mouth.

I'm glad I didn't let that first experience sour me on the whole concept of vaping.

I know! I was reading through it and reminded of how helpful she was. So, nobody knows where she went? I know there was a thread looking for her at one point. Oh... You posted a link to that thread.
