[Vapor Guru Passes Away]

Awesome video. I think anyone on any vaping forum should see it.

So, the Tornado and eGo are the same? are there any differences in what you get in the kit? I found an eGo for like $50, but any links or site suggestions would be helpful, as I don't really know any "reliable" sources (e.g. won't sell me a knockoff). I found a 50ml bottle of e-liquid for $10, but my friend told me not to buy it, since it was probably not "safely" made. Did he mean it could be contaminated with chemicals? sorry for all the questions.

The Tornado and eGo are essentially the same model, yes. Totally Wicked just re-branded it. As for the variations in what the kit contains, someone else will have to fill you in; I have neither.

The trepidation behind large quantities of liquid for low prices is because many (NOT ALL) but many of those liquids are made from cheap ingredients. They won't kill you or anything, but they'll probably have somewhat of an unpleasant synthetic flavor to them. It's just that when you see something that is way cheaper than it should be, you have to wonder why it's priced that way; However, this isn't always the case. Tasty Vapor sells 1 oz. of liquid for only $15, and they're amazing.

[Pay It Forward]

I've admired the beautiful mods - as much as I admire the man who makes them. How could I not? I'm truly honored to know I'll own one of them and I will cherish it forever. Although there are a lot of people here that I feel deserve this more, I can't be any happier that I am one of the lucky ones to get it.

I can't give a strong enough AMEN to this quote.

Congrats to you and Brian!

[Pay It Forward]

Me, me, me, want.

Paying it forward to Stormchas3r. He's new (like me) but a really cool guy that helps newbies all the time, makes friends fast, and I feel that he upkeeps and contributes to this forum's good reputation. I think he'd greatly appreciate this mod.

[My Honest Exp With The Ecig!]

That's great, Patty. I also believe there are many other things in tobacco cigs that make it so adictive. If I go out somewhere with one battery and it dies out I have no problem being without it for however long. It is not on my mind nearly as much as those anologs were. I do like vaping very much and I don't go to long without it but all I need is a couple puffs and I'm good for a while. Unlike anologs where I would smoke it to the filter just to get my moneys worth. When the the time comes I would be able to quit vaping with no problems and I could never say that about anologs.......until I learnd about vaping.

I think it's interesting that we're talking about this, because I noticed it as well. When I get up in the morning, I say "Hmmm, I think I may vape a bit to start off the day." Before, it was like "CIGARETTE. NOW." If I go without vaping for a while, I do miss it a bit, but I am not snapping at everyone. I definitely agree with Patty that nicotine is NOT the only addictive thing in cigarettes.

In any case, congratulations!

That's about the same experience I had with him. Really nice guy, ships promptly, included freebies. Wouldn't hesitate to order from him again. In fact, I want to order some more of his natural flavors. The natural pear is awesome!

[My Way Of Giving Back]

I hate to just re-state what has already been said, but...

This is such a pleasant community. I have seen forums out there where everyone is out to be more right than everyone else, forums that actually discouraged me from vaping for a few months. I'm not going to drop names here, because you guys know the ones I'm talking about. Where every answer just reeks of condescension and everyone thinks they're better than everyone else.

I have never once encountered that on this forum. From day one, everyone was so polite and helpful with anything I needed to know. It's so easy to learn here, and with something that can be as complex as vaping, that is absolutely essential.

Right down to the suppliers that you meet on here. They're all such good, honest people. It's interesting to have a friendly chat with someone who you're ordering from. I've found that this site really brings something that is big business down to a social level, which is really comforting.

And as others have said, video chat PLEASE. We are suckers for a video chat! We really do have a blast with it.

I have horrible luck with contests, but nonetheless, thanks for the awesome contest Mark! We understand and appreciate the time and labor that goes into your mods, and it's generous of you to give one away.
