Yes. That partially true. But some people don't have the drive to quit as bad as you did. Some have to quit because of health problems. But as much shit as I had laying around and I donated it to people that liked them enough that they now quit smoking. Some people try mine and then they realize how tasty and good it CAN BE. Yes your right about the ego stick. But if you had the choice to smoke and ego stick for a few weeks. Or a decent istick and a cheap kanger. I DIDNT SPECIFY EXPENSIVE MODS. I DIDNT ASK ANYONE TO SEND $150 MOD. I SIMPLY STATED THAT ANYONE WITH EXTRA STUFF THEY DINT USE. THEN I WAS EVEN TALKING ABOUT BROKEN ITEMS. I WILL FIX THEM. If you CAN help someone. Then why not try to do it? I'm just a guy trying to increase the vaping community. I know I still hate smelly cig smoke when I walk past it. I'm passionate about Vaping and I want to pass it along the most possible. So again. If anyone has any devices laying around or even broken mods EGOs that work(cus they ain't worth repairing most of the time) or any Tanks that someone could get some use out of. I know many people that after they try a good tasting good working vaporizer it motivates them to ATLEAST try it a little more. But everyone is different. I also worked my ass off to get my own devices. I didn't get anything free. I've been vaping for a few years. But just got into it deep a early this year. Promoting it and helping others There's always that stubborn family remember that has health issues and won't quit. That was my mother in law. She's tried ego sticks and she could put stand it. She tried mine and loved it. Of course I have a decent setup. I gave her a spare one I had and after a few weeks it burnt up. A nice gentlemen on my other thread sent me a MVP3.0. And a triton tank. She's now vaping all day cause she loves it so much. Some people are more stubborn than others. But that doesn't mean they are less of people. Just raised differently. Grew up in different places. I've always worked for everything I have. But some people lose that will. I do what I can to help who I can

Lol. No one has to help. I chose to try. It's nice to see someone in a few month and know that they ATLEAST are smoking less or quit. Someone else was nice enough to send my mother in law a decent device and she LOVES the thing and is barely smoking now. She smoked for 30years. I tried to help her by giving one of my old devices. She had it a few weeks and it stopped. I tho they maybe someone has some old crappy devices laying around. And sure enough someone was happy to help another person now hopefully her health will get a bit better too

Yes I made the same mistake the first one I bought. Tesla one. I should have ordered it. But that was when I really got into vaping big time and then I wanted other to experience how good it CAN BE.I'm one of the fools that did the $40 b&m thing, but it did gets me off stinkies

if you are this emotionally vested in it, and want to save their lives...why not just i dont know...
work your ass off to buy them a mod?
I gave most of my extra stuff away locally to guys who wanted/needed it. no heart wrenching story i just said "hey man i see your outdated setup, want this Doge X i have?".
i understand what you are saying you want to do...but the way you went about it was wrong and it fit the bill of a normal scammer. I am an addict...will always be (any addict or alcoholic will relate) while im no longer using (hard elicit drugs, ***** don't count) and have been clean for a long time i still never forget the lies and illusions people put on/tell to gain something
money, drugs, drinks, vape gear, idc what the item i am programmed to notice this stuff.
hell ive had my best friend tell me her mom died for pity because she knew id "get her fix" because she pulled at my heart strings... I was able to find out she had lied but it was difficult to uncover even knowing her, IN REAL LIFE!
YOU might not be a scammer, but the 932849 people before you saying the exact same thing, behaving the same way you are, WERE scammers!
so sorry if we seem like dicks but we have to watch out for our growing community.
sure you say you gave it away, but we are forced to make our own assumptions on if you are lying or not.
guilt by association ever heard that? kind of whats going on.
remember this is the internet we might feel like we "know" each other but at the end of the day we know what you tell us, and project. you dont need a psychology degree to deceive and fool people online.
i have a 3 month old Ego One charged up ready to PIF with a fresh coil and juice but you in no way compelled me to even think about giving it up. sorry just something doesn't seem right here.
if you are asking for free stuff on multiple threads, people are going to think you are doing simply that...asking for free stuff.
glad we could have this talk and clear things up, mmkay?
now back to busines

I'm the same way. But not everyone is like that. I don't like to PIF online either. I like to actually see the people. But some people would rather just mail it out to someone. It's happen. I have gotten one already in my only other thread. Gave the stuff to people I KNEW and KNEW they needed something. But no one has to do anything. I chose to try

And yes I know what you mean. But mean negative comment are not what should be happening. Maybe they can PM me and have a conversation. Or check out my Facebook or even my business page there too. And btw. I also was an addict and know what you mean. You can't trust no one anymore. But that why you message them and talk to them. Not ASSUME THE WORST AND RUIN IT FOR SOMEONE THAT WANTS TOMACTUALLY HELP. CAUSE I AM SINCERE AND LOVE HELPING PEOPLE QUIT. Sorry about the scammers but it's not the case

i totally agree, 100%. all i was saying (and sorry if i seemed offensive or like i was attacking you personally) is that the way you went about it was sketchy.
that being said if a gold contributor or higher like @Whiskey asked the same thing nobody would have batted an eye!
why? because they have established themselves and have paid it forward themselves, participated and contributed to the PIF box, etc.
the point of pay it forward is if somebody sends you something, you use it then repay it to somebody else when you can (i know you understand this) but the problem is unless you do this on this board nobody will know for sure if you really did or not.
its sad we all have to assume people are scamming but unfortunately the world is unfair.

i agree, but this is the internet and everyone is an asshole on the internet. just like the Nigerian prince that asked for my bank info to transfer my inheritance on my yahoo email 10 years ago....still haven't seen that money
and if you haven't noticed, the amount of scammers asking the same thing has risen ten fold recently.
plus one person makes an asshole comment we all join in, basic playground ethics
what?.....you mean that fuckers not a real Nigerian Prince.....aaaaawwww shit! My wife is so gonna kill me over this.i agree, but this is the internet and everyone is an asshole on the internet. just like the Nigerian prince that asked for my bank info to transfer my inheritance on my yahoo email 10 years ago....still haven't seen that money

i mean supposedly i am the heir to the Niarobi crown so....why not? im sure we will be met with a welcome party.
this is, if i can get on the plane with my mod without it being confiscated and me getting a cavity search.
LmaoI still have a better chance of getting a quality product from the Nairobi mail order service than i do FT
oooohhhh cavity search this is sounding better and better all the time first the goat and now the cavity search.

they better include a cavity search WITH reach around for the prices they ask... i know jet fuel dont cost that damn much.
If this is the case then why have a PIF section at all?
I understand that people take advantage and they ruin it for others but the way it's going is truly pathetic.
Even mods have jumped on the shame bandwagon.
If that's the case then maybe the PIF should be limited to offers only.....
I think that's a great idea have the PIF limited to offers.....or people will have to relize if they come along with a sob story that they are going to be greeted with a HEALTHY skepticisim, and be prepared for it...or maybe another alternative would be to ask people not to respond to these hardluck stories unless they wanna give stuff away, and to not respond with incredulity, derision, or good sense.....although it will be the end to a great source of amusement.

And I actually did do that for a bit. I do a lot more than just ask around. But when funds get tight or time is scarce it doesn't hurt to see if anyone has some "junk" laying around. It doesn't hurt to ask. But like I said. If someone has trust issues then they should effect the people that actually are trying to help. Don't judge a book by its cover. Get to know someone a bit first

Some people just seem to have the stuff but never get around to posting a offer to give it to someone who wants or can use it. My stuff laid around before a while and then I helped one person and i enjoyed seeing someone actually slow down and quit smoking because I gave them the little motivation they needed. But I don't judge anyone that doesn't just do it themselves. Everyone is different. And not everyone sees it the same way. But I try still

Yeah but that should kind of be a given. But yeah. My fault for not stating that I guess. Lol. And yeah I do think some are sob stories but I honestly just like passing stuff along. Anyway I can. Many have old ones laying around that might as well get some use. I offer to pay shipping WHEN I CAN. And when I can't I say just wait a week and I'll take care of it then
I've been a carpenter for 30 years in the SF bay area...every years some twat comes around and asks me to go do "christmas in April" a chance for me after 40 hours of work to go out and donate my highly skilled and knowledgable labor alongside a bunch of self righteous yet totally worthless and ineffectual "good people" to build or remodel a total strangers house...for this I get a pat on the back.......So, I am supposed to give expensive time toward a person who will most likely give their house to their crack dealing grandson, or sell it to a rich chinese immigrant for a bundle....and they will retire to florida......and yet there is almost no way a person like me could afford to buy a house for themselves in the SF bay area.....and people don't see the irony of asking for free work from a working class stiff.I mean it's not like these fucks are gonna come over and raise my barn one weekend.
Oh needless to say when a total stranger asks me to play santa claus in april I tell them fuck no.
Oh needless to say when a total stranger asks me to play santa claus in april I tell them fuck no.
I don't like any kind of control...and won't condone it...plus I like ridiculing scammers.
But....my question is who the fuck are you to determine who's scamming?
You don't want to contribute? Fine. Stfu about it then.
Your "entertainment" is nothing more than reverse trolling and this bullshit is getting out of hand.
I've PIF to a few members here with no problems.
@Azreal Ibanez is a good example.
I sent him a cheap ego styled setup and now he's good to go.
The bottom line is that if you think it's a scam then look the other way.
There's no need to chastise or belittle a member just because you're suspicious.
You shouldn't do charity work for any kind of return or the thought of the outcome of your charity. You should do it because you want to make the world a better place.
Your entire line of thought is completely fuct!
You are a fucking idiot...don't tell me how to see the world or what I should do...to ask a person who can't afford to get a loan on a house to donate free time to somebody who is sitting in a house worth 800,000 dollars to a million..is ludicrous. now if you want some shelter banged up in the middle of a flood survivors, or in appalachia.I'm your huckelberry... but nobody who owns a fucking house in the SF bay area can in anyway be referred to as "poor"...now if you wanna get off your butt and do something more than flap your gums instructing people on your chickenshit contrived ethos then by all means pick up a hammer and get to work. but save your sermon on the mount for somebody else...

And I've realized while trying to "promote" per say. Vaping just isn't for everyone AS A HOBBIE. Some just need someone to show them the good ones and help them find one that fits them. My boyfriend had a few small mod setups before and he never really committed to vaping and never fully stopped smoking. Until he got his Special Edition Istick 40w carbon fiber and a simple Nautilus with Mesh Tank. He loves the thing and it cost less than $60 And his old device were given to someone else. I have one that A person just gave back cause they saved enough to buy a better device. So I helped them with one for two weeks and the money they saved they bought a nice device. Both my boyfriend and our buddy did the same thing. But cause they had something to use while they were saving.
and yeah I have been trying to get involve with everything. Just haven't had any PIF boxes to participate in yet I've tried. I was too late. And I just offered a guy some juice if he want it. And I'm trying to fix the MVP 2.0 that stopped working on my mother in law. If I can fix it I'm sending it to him too if he responds. But I also gotta fix it first. Lol. It works but it is very very weak. Almost like it's stuck on the lowest wattage and it barely fires a throw away atomizer Let alone firing any other tanks. But I'm trying to get it to work so someone else can get some use out of it. Maybe this guy can use it u till he saves enough to get a better one. And then pass it on again. That's how it should be I think.
why should I not enjoy the human drama as I see fit...who the fuck am I...I'm a free person ..who the fuck are you to say what is or isn't out of hand...are you the new sheriff in town buffy. If you care to play Saint Fancis by all means go for it ,but really your contrived morality belongs to you and if you are trying to "shame" people you're in for a long fucking wait.....LOL
That was years ago and experimintation is natural.

And yes. I just noticed there was a bunch of people asking. I wasn't on for a bit and missed that. Quite a few asking. Hard to tell who's seriously in need. I put it this way. I'm honest. I said straight up. I don't need anything. I want stuff to give to OTHERS WHO DO NEED IT. If someone thinks I'm shady then please by all means. Don't send anything. Or maybe message me and have a conversation. I'm straight forward. I'm a nice guy. And I couldn't bring myself to scam or screw anyone over. My business is steady cus customers return because they trust us So I do have ways of proving my legitness. As to wether you trust me to give the stuff out. That's a decision that is up to you. But I still am going to keep trying my best to help who I can. You don't have to like it. But also don't have to publicly judge someone when you didn't take the effort to verify yourself. NOT YOU PERSONALLY. JUST IN GENERAL. BY ALL MEANS I NEVER TRY TO BE A DICK. LOL.i agree, but this is the internet and everyone is an asshole on the internet. just like the Nigerian prince that asked for my bank info to transfer my inheritance on my yahoo email 10 years ago....still haven't seen that money
