Damn what?

Dude admits it's NOTHING but hearsay. Twisted is a total DOUCHE and SHITBAG for lying to everyone.

Looks like Rips asking for kick backs...At least thats what the screen shots seem to imply. More to follow im sure.

No, it looks like someone making HEARSAY claims. They have NO proof Rip asked for dick. They even admit, Rip did the review.

So IF he was shaking them down for money, why did he do the review?

2+2 doesn't equal spaceship.

I still haven't seen any evidence of someone asking for money for positive reviews. That text says he was going to mention CCI products to his following, and in videos. Anyone can mention a product on a review, and not be reviewing said product. Think about it like this. Rip reviews "nextcoolatty" from jgossvapingyomama, and the mod he uses during the review is a product from CCI. He is not reviewing the mod, but it sure is getting some advertisement right? I see nothing unethical about this, if, in fact, that is the way things went down. I also seriously think that is why he mentioned that he would not do juice products, because he advertises his own juice line that way. And btw, I'm not a fanboy of Rip or Twisted. In truth, I like Ruby Roo best.

Still don't understand what all the fuss is about. I enjoy watching all the reviewers & personalities on youTube even though most of the products being looked at nowadays don't interest me; well, maybe except for a few pieces showcased by some of the European based YouTubers. Bottom line, I just find it fun to watch when I'm at home and take a vape break.

That said, I seriously doubt that majority of the people will watch a video and immediately go and buy it without doing some additional research on their own. But if you didn't, well, then that's all on you then, not the reviewer, paid or not IMO.

As for integrity on disclosure, if you want to hold these internet personalities to a higher level, I would suggest focusing on things to be scrutinized more, like the type of metals all these replacement sub ohm clearomizer heads everyone is raving about are made of, or if vendors have testing results of the Diacetyl/AP content in their juices or not.

IDK, to me, that would be more beneficial to know rather than if personality X gets compensation or not. Most of these vaping products will sell or un-sell themselves majority of the time anyway.

No soup for all you junior National Enquirer post makers on the same fuckin subjct.
Yeah my bad....I didn't see anything about this so I thought it was Newz. Guess I don't spend enough time on the forums. If you've already seen it then there's nothing new here for you. I'm subscribed to Twisted's channel so when this vid dropped I thought it was interesting.

We went around this a thousand times.. No, Rip didnt ask for kick backs. Yes, Kurt says Twisted got it wrong. Yes, even Twisted says it wasnt what it seemed.

i cant believe the jealousy for rip. all the well know reviewers are pissed off because rip gets sooo many views and subcribers. twisted really fucked this one up, rip just released another review to clear the air. if rip was really getting paid , how come no venders are backing this story or is this the first time he did it. i like vaporjoe but hes always accusing rip of something like when he said he heard rip still smoked from a reliable source. first you cant accuse someone unless you seen it with your own eyes, second if anyone knows rips story he wasnt really big on smoking, he dipped tobacco, yea he did smoke to, but his main addiction was dip. at least thats what he said on one of his videos. this civil war between vapors has got to stop and we need to focus on the important stuff, like advocacy

Thats funny.. I clicked it and it went to Adult Friend Finder.. I though v4p3r was looking for a friend, maybe?
The first time I clicked it I went to a porn site? Is V4p3r getting paid per redirect?

Of course, the real issue is that v4p3r has an infection from going to too many porn sites.. :rolleyes:

Must be some porn stuck in your cookies then. Worked just fine when I clicked it.

Wouldn't surprise me though, it's been that kind of day.

I run addons that block scripts and flash from running. Nothing bad was going to happen by clicking it again
