Who are the cloud chasers kidding ?

[six]

What I find interesting, is that the OP didn't attack the cloud chasers; he just said high power vaping may be dangerous, yet he gets attacked by, I presume, cloud chasers, who simply didn't read or comprehend

Wrong. And Wrong. He did indeed attack cloud chasers. I am not one.

Here: let's just have the highlights:

(inflammatory) probably going to get a lot of negative feedback
(inflammatory) wake up and smell the roses
(false claim) responsible for 25% of all US deaths
(inflammatory and accusatory and if you think this wasn't an attack, you're strange) some sort of militia styled group of people.
(inflammatory and false) But there is a new menace
(just odd) Beware.

Not how I see it, but I understood what he meant in the post...

You must have missed the title of the thread.

No idea; I don't know these ProVariNati you speak of...

The first rule of Provarinati.....there is no Provarinati.../flashes MiB Flashy thingy and walks away...while you are left thinking...

You are certainly right OP -- this will stir up controversy.




Suggest you go to the regulations section and read up a bit. A law passed 15 years ago is very significant on what the FDA is doing. Do your homework.

What are you trying to say? The law the OP is talking about wasnt passed in 99, it was 2009...

Thread titles mean little here. Look how many vaping is banned in my city threads there are, when it turns out there is a proposal to restrict vaping to certain public areas where smoking is prohibited...

You really get off on being as contrary as humanly possible. I dated a girl like that once. I put up with it for a lot longer than I should have because she was hot. There is a First and last time for everything in life, am I right?

Maybe that's why my ladies put up with me...

I think I was the one who called cloud chasing silly and all the cloud chasing kids got offended, even though they claimed they weren't cloud chasing kids...

I called it silly, and they all got mad at me about it too, even though I DON'T CARE if they want to be silly, I'm just callin' it as I see it. They seem to have a problem with anyone who holds a different opinion than their own.

That is what you came up with? I've seen you do better. Title plus I know this is going to twist some knickers but...I am going to stir up a ruckus anyway and... suddenly it's all "Luke, I am your father"...LOL

Come now sir. What say you apply that superior intellect to far more noble pursuits...What say we see if there aren't some lost noobs in the lobby?

 

[AndriaD]

Just a theory: but it's probably because the thread title itself is baiting?

When I saw this, I thought of any number of posts I've seen recently, where folks are like "I vape 90%-100% VG with a .4 ohm coil, but no, I don't cloud chase." I've wanted to say, so many times "DON'T BE DISINGENUOUS" but I fear they don't know that word. If someone's vaping that much VG on a coil with resistance that low, they might not be CHASING them, but they sure are BLOWING them.

I won't disagree it wasn't meant to draw response, but to incite others, I don't think so...

I'm always suggesting eGos over mechs for new vapers, except for the PV-1, which I believe to be the perfect starter mod...

I get you but this is just human nature. FTR, I don't "chase clouds". But look around, there will always be people who need to have the fastest, best, biggest. This is no different save the fact that the danger of it in the wrong hands is frightening.

I don't believe that freedoms should be restricted, even if I completely disagree with something that is being done; as long as it is not hurting me or anyone else. In this case you can not be hurt if you use some common sense and get an education of what you are doing.

Disingenuous behavior and the internet? Why who heard of such a thing!

 

[freeall]

Funny how all the people defending 'cloud chasers' are more than likely ones themselves. Go figure.

I'm tellin ya, cloud chasing is the new fad everyone wants a part of. Vaping isn't a cessation to smoking anymore. People only care about dem cloudz and da RDA'S dat pro-dooce dem phat cloudz.

I agree about freedoms; that's why I don't care if they wanna cloud chase, it's no skin off MY nose. But I do wish that anyone pursuing a hobby with that much potential for catastrophe would really study up on how to do it safely, and how to respond safely and sanely if it all goes to hell anyway -- because feces does often occur despite one's best efforts. I've already posted the very conservative way that I vape, but I still tried as hard as I could to learn as much as I possibly could, before I stacked batteries in my Sigelei Zmax, before I got a mech, heck even before I first tried coil-building on my Kanger T3S's.

But sure, I like shiny new toys too. I just got a dripper that will make the most marvelous stealth vaping tool, if I ever need that, an Igo-S, and it's so cute! What I really wanted it for was to have a quick and easy way to test new juices, with a tight-ish draw like my kayfuns, particularly since I'm starting the DIY thing. But it's coiled at my usual 1.8Ω, and I'll be dripping 75% PG ejuice.

You are correct.

However (just in case) if you're referring to me, I vape at .2 ohms with 50 mg juice.

I'm chasing nic and blowing clouds.

But I'm not mad at you. I kinda like your personality.

 

[Penn]

Interesting read.

Funny thing - Even when you tell people of these tactics (as well as the Rules for Radicals, of which this appears to be an adaptation) the tactics still work. On the internet I get it still working because one can just use "alts" but how can people not see it in the real world?

 

[DaPopeLP]

I called it silly, and they all got mad at me about it too, even though I DON'T CARE if they want to be silly, I'm just callin' it as I see it. They seem to have a problem with anyone who holds a different opinion than their own.

I didnt get mad at ya. I dont care if you find what I do silly as long as you dont insult me.

I was a religious hookah smoker before vaping. I need the clouds or for me its just not satisfying. Doesnt do anything for me. I love cloud chasing. I can out fog my hookah and that is saying something.

I love how so many on these forums try to single out "cloud chasers" as the anti Christ lol. If it keeps you off analogs and you are being smart about what and how your doing it Vape on!
