Unlike the original e-smoking forum I found which was Dutch and completely a support forum, I see so many people wishing to discuss possible negative effects of vaping here.(I think that forum disappeared). I understand debators need a forum too.

I come here for support, that is to be uplifted and encouraged in my efforts to quit smoking cigarettes and to use vaporizers instead.

I sometimes go to a forum called curezone. There, they have support forums for the most part, but any subect that starts having negative posts gets their own debate forum where they can talk about negative experiences and possibilities. It is all on the same site. And the debate is as easy to access and post on as the support. But, it could keep the aggravation levels down. People sometimes will hate one form of healing and if allowed would take it over with negativity on curezone.

Many times debators are just endowed with a personality that thrives on conflict. And of course others have valid concerns. Either way you can't tell from the title of a thread where it is going, someone can enter and turn the whole thing upside down.

Joe, if you see this, could you go take a look at www.curezone.com and take a look at their format? I like it and I know if I go to a support forum that is what I will get.

You can read dutch Gofo? There are forums alive and well there, though one of the former three 'exploded' (2 new ones resulted, new URL's also) and another one got a new domain and URL so perhaps isn't found with old bookmarks anymore.

No, I can't really read Dutch, but there were eough bi-linguals on there that they helped us understand. Plus we could use Babelfish to translate is we wished. The people were such characters, and so funny--it was kind of like a family. Vaping crosses language barriers I suppose, how romantic, lol.

Anyway, I appreciate the info about the new ones. Back then no American forums were very active at all, that I knew of anyway.

I had quit e-smoking because I was allergic to PG. It was here on this forum that I learned about VG, thank God:)
