Where is the love?

[r4nd0mCh40s]

Ok there has been some interesting opinions voiced on here about prices for vendors and such threats ect. Who cares? everyone is allowed to voice their opinions on a site thats how the world works, you cannot change mankind and how people act, it ain't going to happen, so get over yourselves bite your lips and think twice about flaming back or writing a thread that XXX company isnt as bad as the rest of the world, who cares drop it.

Everyone is talking about uniting together as Canadians to fight HC about vaping, yet we bicker about the simplest things. vaping to me is a family, its a movement, it is something to help benefit our own health.

So instead of flaming, why not just vape it out and who cares show the love people that we are bettering ourselves, and got off of the analogs for good!

I personally love a good DEBATE. People expressing their opinions and viewpoints and fully allowing everyone else to join in with the discussion - regardless of how different they see things. That's what is suppose to make diversity a great thing in life.

How utterly boring this world would be if we all thought the same. Hopefully no matter how much we all disagree on things we can come to this forum to openly voice our views without getting defensive or ridicule and belittle someone because they aren't well informed.

Isn't that what this forum is about? Reviews, opinions, newbies alongside veterans, etc all sharing what we know, what we think we know, what we don't know and come here to ask about - that's one of the reasons I visit ecf anyway. We just need to show each other respect.

I'm glad the other couple of threads weren't totally blown out of proportion (as of my posting this)

Of course, but people take the debates too far, and the one gentleman started getting threatening emails and pms, thats where it crosses the line from debate to personal attacks

I'm really not trying to be negative or defeatist at all here, but I find that trying to organize people is a lot like herding cats. The claws come out and opinions turn to arguments regardless of the motivation behind the cause.

IMHO it's just something we gotta deal with, accept and move along as a whole whom agrees to disagree. Everyone feels that their method of stepping forward is the best and they are entitled to their opinion and their own course of action. The ticket is to synchronize these efforts under one broad organization, I think.

i dont always agree with people here and i make it pretty clear but its entertainment for me , i try not to be disrespectful, sometimes i fail. but we cant be bashing the vendors for the prices they choose to charge , threats and stuff is totally different and i think should be voiced

 

[thekapitu]

The love is here.... thats one of the reasons Im still here... We all love vaping, don't we?

 

[mopar]

Nothing but love, with the odd bit of disagreement and controversy. What fun would we have without a little entertainment? but totally agree when threats and the like of personal attacks happen it is counter-productive.

Personally, I think the process just needs to run it's course. Everybody is entitled to their opinion, that is true. And on the other side of the argument, a vendor can charge whatever he, or she feels the market will bear, but it is ultimately us, the buyer who decides who succeeds in the industry based on where we spend our money.

Ya, but you have us at a disadvantage Mopar! Who could argue with a yellow cat/Pikachu?

 

[Cokeybill]

As long as we can agree to disagree all will be fine. Sometimes it's stepping on toes or going just one post too far. That is what forums are for..to voice your opinion. Nothing wrong with that.

Just because we argue in a marriage / relationship doesn't mean we don't love our spouse

Sharing is good

I haven't been here that long, but I've seen a few threads where it was starting to look like a war. I don't understand that at all. Since everyone here is either using, used to use, or thinking of using e-cigs, then I can conclude that we're all adults. As such, we should act like adults.
Debates and opinions are good, as they promote discussion. Everyone doesn't have to agree, but we can all respect other people's point of view, even if they are contrary to our own.
We are all on the same side after all.

The moderators wouldn't have anything to do if everyone got along. There is always one in the crowd...always has been, always will be.

Like for instance it is my OPINION that you've used an excessive amount of emoticons in your post.

 

[Ilikecoffee]

I apologise if my thread about sales taxes came off as being combative or petty.

This is the sixth time Mopar has posted with emoticons, and he has become exceedingly efficient at it.

Double post... sigh. Matrix is broken indeed.
