Oh Fran, if only we could, but I don't think we can. I will be posting any personal content on my blog from now on. I have been told I have to, so that is where I will be, and well, I hope that allows some people to just leave me alone.

I will probably welcome new members and see where I can be helpful. That's where I seem to do best, but I kind of saw handwriting on the wall where someone attacked me so vindictively and like, so MUCH I was just like "Ignore Ignore!" for the first time and received defense from members of the thread and got the screaming response "I AM ADMIN NOT YOU."

Any other member-- that would have been an instant ban. I will say I like to blog and I will play on there, no one has to venture or see the thread "threadjacked." My "stupid and inane content that doesn't violate rules" as an Admin has so often said, well, no threads are good for me now to speak my mind.

I will stick to welcoming new members and reading and just posting on my blog. It seems to be best for all. I have no desire to cause ECF to suck for anyone. I also can't change who I am although less impulsivity in certain matters would probably be appropriate, I have no beef with that.

So, it's all good, when I get to it I will post my Mango Lassi flavor and how it turned out, LOL. Probably vile, that seems to be the way things have gone for a while.

IDK some people are just sources of annoyance. I guess I am such a one. I would not be lying if I said I was not sad, as I am. But all I can do is move me somewhere no one has to stress about, and frankly, it's happening everywhere, so why not here, right? I am who I am and perhaps there are times to bend like a willow and this is such a time. Sigh.

Well, regardless of whether you're appropriate or not, I like you Anna. Who else would put up with my random self? Message me anytime you feel like it if you want to talk.

Please promise you’ll come here often. I’ll miss you. And worry (I’m an ace worrier ;)) if I don’t know how things are going. You’re not any more of a “bother” than any of us can be at times. Please don’t forget that.

This makes me sad!! I hope you will visit often and post frequently!! I’ll visit the blog, of course, but, please post here too!

Wow, $7.65 for shipping bn on one 10mL flavor from DIYVaporSupply, think I'll pass on onestop Blueberry, at least for now.

Gee, I didn't know there were other vendors who carried some of OSDIY's One Stop Flavors and One Stop Blends, besides Chef's Flavours. I learn something new every day.

About this: "Onestopdiyshop is out of Blueberry in 10mL. Who else carries this?"

Well...I do have more than enough of the Blueberry for my own use, and a ___ton of new little plastic bottles. Just PM me your mailing info. :D

Exaggerate much? Considering the staff talks amongst themselves, as well as keeping records of actions we've done, it does not bode well to claim a staff member has done something when in fact, it never happened. Making claims of this nature puts you on VERY thin ice.

The advertising description says, "built-in 5000mAh Rechargeable Batteries". For what that's worth it does last a long time on a charge. I'm sure that means 2 x 2500mah for a 5000mah total.

I’d say that is false advertising. In order to achieve anything close to it’s claimed 220 watt output, you need a high voltage power source. 2 batteries in series will provide that for it doubles the voltage of a single cell. But 2 batteries in series retains the same mAh and CDR of a single equivalent battery. So if this device is using 2x 2500mAh batteries, then 2500mAh is all you are going to get.

You gain runtime due to the fact you are operating at a higher voltage, thus less current draw on the cells.

@vaper1960, it occurs to me that you might want to put all your flavor research into a blog as well as a thread. That way, if the thread recedes into the mists of time, you can direct people to the blog instead of their having to dig up the thread.

@vaper1960 – this is excellent advice. After a certain time (what, I do not know), if there is no activity on the thread it will be locked. A Blog will allow for continuous editing should you wish.

Random thoughts. I wonder how much of an effect the following things have on different perspectives of flavor:

% of PG
% of VG
% of Nic
% of flavoring
Brand of PG and VG and nic and flavoring
Type of tank and mod
Type of wick
Type of measuring device
Settings of tank and mod
Different palate or tongues :rolleyes:
What we ate/drank right before vaping
What we vaped right before vaping another flavor
Brushing teeth/tongue or not
Brand of toothpaste
Water consumption

Bronze talked me into tasting marshmallow in the raspberry yogurt by some form of mind control that one day. But I have not tasted it since. Just made me think.

Oh and good morning! I'm headed to get to work early so I can quit a little earlier. Cat is here. :wub: She loves me. Y'all stay safe out there!

I’ve toyed with different PG/VG ratios while using the same flavour’s at the same flavour percentages. From 50/50 up to say 75% VG I didn’t really detect a difference. Beyond 75% I felt the flavour starts to diminish. BUT, that could very well be due to my palate and as always, YMMV.

Do believe what we eat or drink can have an effect on how we taste our vape. Drink a bottle of whisky and everything tastes great!! (joking but true!).

Tanks, wick and coils will also have an effect. Mod’s, if the device is accurate with it’s output it should not have an effect on the quality of the vape. But if the device is suffering from deficiencies, such as not hitting it’s target wattage or has a poor output signal, then that could be perceived as a poor quality vape.


@*RJ* - is that your kitty in your profile picture? She looks adorable – love the white scarf and mittens. Would love to see more pictures of her. Zelda is currently practicing social distancing – she is hiding in one of her secret lairs doing what cats do best, sleeping!

    I think most anything could make a difference. However, Bronze's mind control did not make me taste marshmallow.
