The most useful thing that RIP has done for me is teach me how to wrap coils (especially nickel), set them on the deck of my rba, and thread my cotton wick.
I have watched Rip for a long time and always thought his reviews were funny and informative. I do not have a problem with him getting paid for reviews. What I DO have a problem with is him LYING TO OUR FACES about it and saying he doesn't. I unsubscribed his you tube page today. Nice knowing ya RIP but I do not give time to people who lie to me. It's too bad he had to go and tell everyone he isn't getting paid. If he was just honest about it I would still watch his reviews. If a reviewer can get paid for his/her time, all the power to them. Just do not Lie about it and expect we are all going to be ok with that.

If I find out he was not lying, then I will subscribe to his you tube channel again and watch his reviews. Honestly though, this has come up before. I hope he was not lying, I will come back and apologize if he is not getting paid.
That's how he produces content for his site. Doesn't matter though, no one reads it. He's still naive to the fact that every time he posts in my threads, all he does is boost my traffic. By riding on my coattails and then bitching about what I post all the time, he just becomes more and more irrelevant.
Seriously? You think I'm THAT great of a writer that I can write that entire article in five minutes? I was on Reddit last night and have been following this thing just like he has. He doesn't own the rights to every controversy that pops up on Reddit even though he likes to believe he does.
Dude, it's like here in Chicago. We have the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun Times. They both report the same stories, usually from different perspectives. They aren't copying each other, the news is the news, and the vaping news is the vaping news. Of course, since we are both reporting the vaping news, our stories are going to be on similar topics and come out at about the same time (when the news is happening). My suggestion is either choose which one you want to follow or better yet, read both and make up your own mind based on both sides of the story. Now I'm out of here again before I get accused a trolling and spamming and all that good stuff.
He's a fucking hypocrite. HOW DARE YOU GET IDEAS FROM REDDIT, that's where he steals his ideas from. He's the tabloid hack accusing others of the same. Unbelievable.
Nothing like a freshly shaved scrotum.
Dude just needs to learn to stand on his own instead of just trolling my content and then posting his strawman BS about it. It really doesn't matter anyway, because his whine posts are for pure entertainment value, and nothing more.
Right! Forgot there was an actual topic here, before the dick measuring started.
Well, to be honest, not saying you received something for free or got paid to promote it can be illegal, depending. Not to mention unethical.. My problem is that the 'proof' is not about something he reviewed, but about something he was asked to promote and the deal was still being negotiated. As far as I know, he hasnt 'promoted' or 'reviewed' it yet as it was not launched yet.
