I’ve only had one issue with a vendor since my foray into vaping. I just escalated a dispute with PayPal about them this week. I never received the Picos I ordered from Health Cabin. Contacted them thru their site. Nada. Opened Support Claim. Twice. Both closed without any communication to me. So I opened a PayPaL dispute. Just weird. We’ll see what happens. Glad it wasn’t for anything expensive or that I “just had to have” !!

It's a nice mod, just gets weird to push the fire button in the top front of the mod.

I have one mod with the fire button in that position. The GTRS VBOY (won it)
It doesn't take that much getting used to.

I placed an order with eightvape, which I've always had a great experience with, then placed an order using the same CC, billing address, and shipping address I've always used.
It never shipped, so I finally called and was informed I have to send a photo of my CC and driver's license to prevent fraud,
#1 I have placed orders with no issue using EXACT same info, nothing has changed.
#2 I had to call to even find out there was an issue.
#3 If you require secondary verification, ask for it BEFORE you charge my card and send me a confirmation email.
#4 Photo of my ID and credit card for security. (that's security? where do I begin with those issues?)
#5 Disparaging comments about military personnel and our "inabilities".
#6 Have not received 'reward points' for previous orders, but have for an order that hasn't even shipped.

Luckily, they are not local to me.

Rant over.

Thanks for the vent.
That sucks. I use 8vape quite often, and never had an issue. They are one of my top vape sites. I wonder if you were in contact with a "noob" employee? Nonetheless, inappropriate comments about the military shouldn't have been made. Would calling their customer support help any? Not sure who you originally called.

Looking for ideas to gain weight.
In the past 2 years I've dropped from a 34 to a 30 waist, and now my damn ribs are showing.

I've eaten healthy...ish, eaten right portions, larger portions. I eat more now than ever.

Ideas?

(Yes, I have seen the Doctor. He was shopping at Target yesterday and I saw him)

Interesting though, I've lost more since I quit smoking.

Move in with me for a week. You’ll look like a fatted calf in no time. That was one of the best things about the Princesses dragging boys home... people to feed that really ATE. Downside, both my SILs vape, so I’m also a vape shop apparently :rolleyes:.
Quick way to add weight is with milkshakes. If you have to avoid sugar and carbs, try upping your proteins and healthy fats. Look at low carb diet guidelines. It’s pretty close to the diabetic diet. Endless bacon :wub:

Well, get to the doctor for a full check up. I don’t know what else to tell you. I used to be skinny, like all my life. Even after kids, I had a BMI of 15-16, no matter what I ate- and I have a sweet tooth! People worried about me, lol. Then I got sick, hit ‘a certain age’, now I can’t lose an ounce to save my soul. Weight is not all about calories in, calories out. Metabolism is a real thing, and health issues DO affect our weight.

I once tried to follow skinny people around the grocery store so I could buy what they were getting. But, Walmart... I am the skinny person there!

Try some cardio with some light weightlifting. I would also recommend a mass gain protein shake. This Is the best tasting one I have used, mixes great with milk, not chalky or gritty. I bought mine at Walmart.

The fire button on the Cylon is on the left side. A bit different for me. I’m use to either the right side as on Revenger X or the front like on Therion/Paranormal.

Now one of the reasons I prefer a centered 510 like a Revenger series is that regardless of which hand I pick it up it’s easy to fire with my thumb or index finger.

That being said... it’s odd the button is on the left. I keep looking at the back of the mod since I’m right handed and use to using my thumb most of the time.

This Cylon though fits perfectly in my hand just like the Revenger series. I’m really enjoying it.

My formula:
Couch + potato chips + ice cream
Adjust quantities as needed to achieve your goal. It's worked extremely well for me.
To be honest, this is my main method.
