The * by names means those are set. Still looking for that someone special for the others so everybody keep an eye out. And thanks for your efforts! :)
Classy has generously offered to start the threads with no names beside it. :)
All welcome threads should be started in the Veterans Forum EARLY morning the day before. If that is not possible, the night before.


Welcome to the ECF Pre-Vet thread!

A Pre-Vet is an ECF member that is about to have their status "Turn" to ECF-Veteran on or about the anniversary of their ECF sign up. You also need anywhere from 70 and 75 post.

This thread is where you can hang out (courtesy of Whiskey creating this thread) and celebrate becoming an ECF-Veteran with other ECF members. You have the option (but not the obligation) to have an Avatar Theme Celebration on your turning day. You select a theme, and many of the group here will help celebrate by changing their avatars. Kind of an avatar costume party. You'll also get a bunch of congrats and a welcome thread created in a sub-forum for vets that pre-vets can't even see yet. If you want to have an avatar theme, start thinking about it!

We will not turn away last minute request, but please try to give us enough advanced notice so we can dig something up for pics. Two weeks prior to your turning date would be awesome.
We try to limit scheduling to the current and the following month.

If you are a pre-veteran and want a welcome thread in the Veteran's Forum and or an avatar theme for your turning day please do the following: Post in this thread and PM me your request.

This thread moves fast so as a final safeguard double check the list that is posted here several times a day sometime before your turning day.
Or the list here: PreVet List: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rs/115895-group-news-notices.html#post3443853

We do our best to accommodate multiple members turning on the same date. Each member is free to choose their own theme; participants rotate and/or combine themes as desired.

Joining in on the celebration is for all members (new and old) so please feel free to participate in the themes for others if you wish. If you are not a Vet yet and want your pic added to Celebrant's thread in the Veterans Forum, there is a Depot located in the Sandbox.
Once you get to the Sandbox, look for the celebrant's thread and follow instructions.
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/sandbox/

Again, I post this list frequently on this thread.
List can also be found here: PreVet List: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rs/115895-group-news-notices.html#post3443853

That's one of the things I truly love. And vaping in the house without the ATTITUDE. I have a room with no cold air return so I sat by a window with a double fan blowing out but still the kids hated it.

yeah sickarette smell travels so much further than sickarette smoke. even if you contain the smoke, it reeks a mile away.

smelling cigs now, i can't imagine what i used to taste like to my past girlfriends,.. smoking a pack a day. :blush:

probably something like this...

Hey everybody! I had no idea there was a thread like this! How cool. I admit I've been a lurker for a long time and even forgot that I had an account. I basically failed my first attempt at vaping after I got fooled into the mall kiosk like so many others. Anyways, it was successful for a couple weeks and then I learned about the forum, found out how bad I got jipped and eventually quit vaping because of lack of funds to get a better kit. Sooo, much later, like 3 months ago in fact, I bought an ego-t kit and got back on the wagon. A couple weeks ago I bought a Reo Grand and fell in love with this all over again. My wife, who never even smoked, has inherited my ego. And I just bought a Reo Mini a few days ago. While hanging out on the Reo forum, I noticed an "upcoming vet" thread for one of them and got lead here. I checked my dates and apparently I'm up on September 1st! So I may not have been the most active in my first year on ECF, but I can't get enough of it the past few months. So after that long introduction, HEY YALL! Congrats to all the other new and upcoming vets! Happy Vaping.

Congrats, AmnNate and glad to see that you are back to vaping. :)

Now for the good news and the bad news. You will meet the one year requirement to become a vet......but.....you also need at least 75 posts, too. So get to posting and stay out of the Outside, since posts there don't count towards your total. :)

I will put you on the list for the first if you think you can make a 70 post count.
Actually will put you there and just hang around here and you will have then 70 post before you know it!!!

Take the time to read the very first post of this thread.
And then come back here and let me know (by PM please), what you'd like for a party theme!
