It's not. It came as one of the standard buttons, but Oliver has/is modifying them. There is a "disagree" button, which I feel is far more civilized (though I think I have used it a grand total of ONE time, LOL). If you want to give feedback specifically on the buttons, you can go to site feedback and help, and there is an Oliver created thread just for feedback on all the new buttons....

Is it really true that with the recent site changes that there will be a "dislike" button? If so, I wholeheartedly disagree with that addition as I think it provokes a negative reaction in some people. This is a very civilized and helpful site that is free of rudeness and trolls (for the most part), which is why I am so comfortable here. I imagine it's the same for others. I was thinking of how when I first started, if there was a dislike button, it may have given me pause and I may not have continued to ask so many questions (I'm sure that wouldn't have been seen as negative to some, lol!) and learned so much.
I am not seeing this feature right now. I came on my computer just to see if what I read is true; hopefully it is not.
We had fun Friday with the red X button! It's not bad

Loving my new tank glass for the Griffin. I only wish there was more pretty options for other tanks!

I've got a question... 1st trying Nets and why is it so rough on wicks and coils? After one tank I had to change wicks and clean coil.

Leftandsparky, NET is known to gunk coils, because it is naturally extracted tobacco, and even after the extraction process is done, my understanding is often it's a dark juice, and (maybe) contains some micro-particles left over from the extraction process-- so it tends to be a coilkiller. This is what I remember, I'm not 100% on it, but I do know NET is a gunky e-juice, from what I understand. You may want to save it for an RTA or use it sparingly kind of thing. I use a really dark coco I like a LOT, but it will kill my coil on day one or 15, so I usually save it for when my coils are nearing the end of their useful life, etc., etc.,

Anna

Micro-particles and oils and waxes extracted from the tobacco during the extraction process.

It was really black and gross looking! But it sure did taste good!
I went ahead and ordered my tobacco to make some for me!!

These micro-particles, oils and waxes can be substantially reduced by using ethanol as the extraction solvent instead of PG (and/or VG) ... refer to this thread for more info: Tobacco extraction using heated Ethanol

Stuff just got real, moved my nicotine :lol: I moved some stuff earlier in the day but made one more trip after the rest of the household went to bed. Sitting on my lovely new patio having a vape before heading back to the apartment and calling it a night.

I think they are somewhat similar. I have to say the Kabuki clone has grown on me a bit, but I need to find a Better Drip Tip. I actually like the N2 driptips the most of those I've found so far.... :)

Anna

Where did you find a Kabuki clone? I didn't see one at FT. I am using a couple of the Vika's, and they are really good.

Opholink, I got it from Fasttech. They were advertising a "Ti clone Kabuki" I actually did get a vika first but my Kabuki arrived a day later. It's grown on me some, but it's still different-- styled like the HOH blue O-ring one, and then it supposedly has "P3" threading, (which I have heard does not work) and then they stuck a NON-titanium "adapter" on there that looks like regular SS. Not quite sure what they were thinking.... For whatever reason, to get a decent vape out of it, I had to turn up my wattage some (again, unclear as to the mysteries of the clone....) Don't get me wrong, it's not a terrible tank for 19 dollars, but it in no way equals the original. I tolerate its quirks as a separate flavor tank, but I can definitely tell a vape difference. Haven't loaded up my Vika Fantasy tank yet, as I really do want to get some RTAs up and going and in the daily rotation. That's been a PITA so far, of late, but I really do want to get back to it and set up decent builds that don't leak.

I did just buy 17 flavors and 25 60 ml glass bottles for mixing, just now. :) Nicotine River (I just love them) so they will be here in a day or two, and I will be having a mixing by weight extravaganza-- I've actually started planning it out and putting together possible "recipies" which I have written down, but I'm quite excited, as I AM starting to get a handle on this DIY stuff, and I'm pretty sure I will be having a lot of fun, mixing by WEIGHT, LOL. I have been hampered by lack of bottles so I got a bunch, heh. Need to get some things steeping. I even broke down and bought sweetener, LOL.

I wish you more success in the beginning than I had.

No, I've been mixing for a while, I just wanted more flavors, more bottles and etc. I already have some flavors but in experimenting so far I've found that I do need some more things to really mix it up a notch. Reluctantly, a sweetener is among those things. LOL.

I haven't had a "failed" flavor yet besides orange creamsicle which I was iffy about buying in the first place. I still have it and I plan to amend it, which is why I started out pretty simply with some single flavor mixes, but have been combining them and getting a feel for flavoring, etc. within my tank. That made sense to me as it's easier to pour out a dreadful tank than larger mixes. I'm kind of developing a feel for flavor profiles that way, and I've been able to start doing combinations and whatnot. I'm actually super pleased with how it's been going so far, but I'm a really good cook and this seemed totally similar-- just with artificial flavorings, but the principles are the same. I started cooking for the family at age 11 when my mom got really ill, I actually enjoy it, so I knew I'd have fun mixing..... I'm kinda sad my kiddo is not around to cook for as much, now he's all a grownup (but, I did teach him to cook, LOL).

So, I wish you continued success, but it's actually going just fine. Haven't bought storebought in like at least over a month.... I got into DIY early due to deeming being around (still) at the time, and stockpiled nic and etc. I started slow on flavors because I'm not about mimicking a flavor or following a recipe, I like to do my own thing. So yeah, this was all planned, though it's gonna be the first time I mix by weight which I'm kinda excited about-- so much less messy, LOL.

due to deeming being around (still) at the time,

Deeming is still around, just been put off for a bit. And local and State laws are still in the works (some already in effect.)

Stay vigilant, stay activist.

Oh sheesh, I am not getting complacent, I have so many senators and regulatory agencies emailing me now, LOL. I should have really created a dedicated email account, but I didn't think of it until it was Too Late. Sen. Jeff Flake is really the most annoying with his "alerts" but he's a liberal (supposedly) so it's actually good to know what mischief he wants to get up to. John McCain's staff seem a bit less dedicated, but to be fair, I expect him to die on the senate floor any time now... I wonder if that's actually ever happened before?

Um, my bad. I always get him confused as a liberal, LOL. Maybe it's his moderateness, maybe I'm getting too old? Moving to AZ has really changed my political views quite a bit. My whole family are died in the wool liberals, my mom almost punched me (I think) when I told her I'd rather vote for a clown than a complete sociopath....
This was my first time voting (I naturalized last year) and I was not at all pleased at my options, I was like, "This is my first one and *this* is what I get?????"

I is looking forward to midterms.
