What would you say your experience level is?

[SissySpike]

I have to consider my self a student Im always learning something new. Im defiantly a collector. I have experience with lots of mods and delivery systems but theirs plenty I haven't used. I like the tweaking and fiddling you have to do with Genys RBAs and that kind of thing. They are kind of like any high performance thing you ave to constantly mess with it to get optimal performance.
It is a hobby as there are plenty of good fair priced mods and delivery systems out there that will get you off of smokes which is the point in the first place.
The problem I see occurring is people thinking they are some how better because they have a little more experience or because they seem to like a certain thing.
If you stick around you most likely try new and different things. Enjoy the ride help the new guy remember we were all clueless at one time.

I have several ranks:
Not Smoking
Hobbyist (stuff's taking up more room and time now than my computer and tattooing hobbies!!)
Bumbling idiot (Yea, you Know what I mean....)

 

[cherrycakes]

moderate.
I'm still using vivi novas which would make me a noob in some people's eyes
but I don't want to mess with carto tanks or rbas yet.

 

[Worzel]

How about happy and proud? That is where I am at. In tech terms I may be a noob, but I like charge, fill, and go, so in my terms I am low maintenance.

If you are comfortable with the set up you are using then as far as I am concerned you are an advanced user. Yes I DIY my juice and I wrap my coils but I don't know jack about first hand use of vv or vw devices, I don't see that as making me any less advanced than someone that only knows how to use a provari, or any better than someone that uses a vivi nova or a carto tank.

 

[Orobas]

I'm DIYing. I rebuild my own vivi nova heads and I have a couple of RBAs.

My current hurdle is setting up a genesis style wick.

I'm also considering the virtues of attempting to cannibalize the 510/ego connection whenever one of my ego style batteries dies to make a pipe mod, just to see if i can without blowing my hooves off.

I'd consider myself level 8 out of 10.

 

[BabyFeet]

I've been vaping about two years now and I feel that I'm in the intermediate range. (I've got too many MODS and the collection is growing)
I can mix DIY juices but also rebuild the heads for my Vivi Nova's and Genesis atty's.
However, the goal line is always moving and there's no telling what we'll be using in another year.
The only really advanced people are probably guys (and girls) like Zen, who are on the cutting edge of new technology

I don't see it all as a tiered structure. I see it more like a spectrum. With rebuilders on one end and replacers on the other. In the center is the new vaper (who is neither a rebuilder or a replacer). As the new vaper gets more experienced, they tend to lean in one direction or another, the more proficient and more involved they get, the more they will identify with either extreme.

I was once deeper in the replacer end of the spectrum, especially during the CE2 era; the bag of burned out attys/ce2s/carts will attest. But now I'm firmly planted in the rebuilder side, closer to the farthest end of the spectrum. Am I an expert or "advanced" user? I'm not sure how to quantify that. But I do know what I do, can explain why I do it, and teach others based on months and years of personal experience.

 

[Kelly Mo2B]

I think I should still be posting in the beginnings group. lol There is soooooooooo much that I still don't know which kind of bites when friends ask me Qs about things.

 

[hawkizefan]

Been vaping for 2 and a half years.
I drop my mods constantly.
I'm a noob

Things change everyday in the vaping community....its hard to keep up anymore. When I started the provari was still in R&D and carto vs atty was the big discussion.

 

[Dansauls]

I consider myself a non-smoker with an awesome new hobby.....

 

[Mac]

I do this for a living and don't like rebuildables.

 

[madmach]

Well it all come down to taste. when you hit the right point you well know it be it top coil bottom coil mesh wick corto tank what ever work well be the best for you..I do the rba,s they stay at home they do not work well with me you have to keep them up right hard to do at work that is were the t2-t3-nova come in to play they a good for work and running around town.It could go on and on but happy that i have not smoked in 3 1/2 years and still learning about e cig.

 

[Mountain_Rain96]

I've only been vaping for 6 months, give or take, but after registering here, realize that I'm still very much a noob, when it comes to the tech side of things. On the quitting smoking side of the equation, for now I'm perfectly content with my plain old fixed voltage eGos and CE4CC clearomizers. I just like reading about different things, most of which I'll almost surely never try, but find them endlessly fascinating anyway. Probably the most advanced thingamabob I'll ever get is a VV Spinner or Twist, and try some larger Vivi Nova tanks. I'm not a difficult person to please.

no matter how many detailed instructions I follow to a T, whatever follow to a T means.

The expression 'to a T', is often extended to form other phrases: 'down to a T', 'suits to a T', 'fits to a T', 'generous to a T' etc. It is also found in advertising copy like 'Golf to a tee' and 'Coffee to a tea'. Those latter jokey versions are extensions of the alternative spellings 'to a tee' or 'to a tea'. The original form 'to a T' is an old phrase and is first recorded in James Wright's satire The Humours and Conversations of the Town, 1693:


"All the under Villages and Towns-men come to him for Redress; which he does to a T."

It is difficult to determine the origin of this phrase. It would be helpful to know the correct spelling; 'T', 'tee' or 'tea'. 'Tea' is the easiest to deal with as it appears in no early citations of the expression and is clearly just a misspelling.

...thought I'd be able to help u out, appears as if no one knows the true meaning...odd

 

[IntelligentDesigner]

Well thanks for the effort in trying to fill me in, whatever "fill me in" means. First of all, the expression ends in a preposition and secondly, I'm pretty much already full.

 

[brummyjon]

Wow.. I didn't think it was necessary to label myself. 9 months free of stinkies. Currently have no inclination to get into rebuildables or mechanical mods or anything else that requires me to take a degree. I know almost exactly enough to get me by, and I would check the forum for anything else. Smoke the same mixture of juice that I have since I found one I really liked. Still really like it. (USA Blend tobacco + vanilla + chocolate caramel). I don't recall getting too technical or geeky about my cigarette habit (though I did like my Zippo lighter). Don't propose to get too geeky about vaping either.

vendor plz, I'm a mount Baker man, but their tobaccos uhhh, anyway I'm look for that! thinking of doing ec's ry4 (sry for off topic)

Dimwitted noob, but at least I know what tastes good.

That makes me a replacer I like to drip and I like my tanks. Plain and simple.
