Initially, I started vaping to avoid sucking on the nails. It quickly turned into a hobby.
my vote was To stop smoking
Originally to help with quitting smoking, now it's about vape and flavor experience.
What people that have never smoked don't understand is that for a smoker there is not only a physical addiction to nicotine, but a physical and psychological addiction involved with whole process of smoking including but not limited to the throat/lung hit.
I'm 48 years old and have smoked for 32 of those years that's 11,680 days or 280320 hours of physical, and psychological conditioning.
I started out vaping to supplement the number of cigarettes I was smoking a day, over the course of about 2 months I went from smoking a pack a day to 4 or 5 a day. Then one day I lit one up took one a drag and said damn this taste and smells like crap, from that day forward I haven't touched another.
I went from vaping 36/24mg juice to 18mg, 12mg sometimes 8mg depending on the juice.
Vaping was the perfect alternative and reconditioning tool for me, it helps me with the hardest of quitting smoking the psychological and physical comfort one gets from the vape that closely mimic the feeling of smoking without smoking.
I'm much healthier now, breath better sense of smell and taste are more acute.

My first goal was simply to stop smoking. Now it's about the flavor, and I've been tapering down on the nicotine level.
I vape to replace analogs. That said, I am finding that the longer I vape, the more I enjoy it. I notice that I'm beginning to choose juices for their specific functions, ie: nicotine, or after dinner yumminess, or before bed relaxing. It's cool. I couldn't have quit smoking without vaping.
Both
I started in order to quit cigarettes. No other method ever worked, even though I quit cold turkey for over a year two different times. Since day one of vaping with a simple blu ecig at the gas station, I have not touched or even craved a tobacco cig. Now that I have found some go-to flavors (and upgraded to a Vision Spinner II with Nautilus Mini, even considering getting my first RBA), I really enjoy the vapor, and have gradually been lowering my nicotine level.

I started because of the nicotine, trying to quit smoking and stayed because of the flavor. Now like most people I just have a really cool hobby 
I had to get off the analogs. I was tired of coughing, hacking, stinking and heaving for a breath.. Best thing I EVER did. I will never go back.46 years of hell.
I started because I hated going outside to smoke in bad weather. Freezing all winter, sweating all summer, rain and hot sun with no protection in places... I keep vaping because I enjoy it.
You know, I always enjoyed the act of smoking about as much as I was addicted to it physically. Between the time I quit using Champix and when I took up vaping, I gained plenty of pounds keeping my hands occupied....and this tastes SO MUCH BETTER than analogs ever did!
Vaping is replacing my cigarettes. I enjoyed smoking but needed something better for me so I switched to vaping. Its amazing my breathing has gotten better in just a couples weeks after quitting.
