Social Etiquette and manners in the Vaping Community Blunders and No No's Rant
Never ever ever do this: Sample every fucking juice in the place and then walk out without buying anything. It's not welfare, those testers are so you can make a choice. It's there for you to HELP you determine what juice flavors you like, so you can buy some juice for yourself to vape. The store paid for that juice. It's not a free sample bar for your enjoyment as a public service.
Also don't show up for the free food, coffee, cookies, etc. some shops are really outgoing and provide many free refreshments for their PAYING customers. And as a customer of many shops, we enjoy a little snack now and again. If you mooch up all the food and then the shop won't provide this nice service. Thanks for fucking that up for us.
Always do this: Appreciate the shop(s) you frequent for the fact that they invested their life savings so your ass could sit there. Give them a Yelp review, a Google review, an Instagram page like and repost sometimes. Like and share their facebook posts when they take the effort to tell you about cool new product they just got in, events they are having, causes like CASAA, SFATA, Juice for Troops, they are raising money for. They are not a charity to support you, they are not a non-profit organization. Also you used to spend money on cigarettes, so don't be a cheapo when it comes to your budget and vaping. It's not the vape community's responsibility to keep you vaping and off cigarettes. Don't treat the community like a welfare social support network for your cheapass. I don't mind frugal people. They vape within their means. They don't seek more than they can afford, and they save up for things they want. I'm sick some people I see trying to make the vape shop drop price so they can 'afford' something that they just merely like and want. It's shiny and nice and new....oh can you give it to me I have so many problems.
Thanks for not wiping your own vape ass for yourself.
Buy your own shit you can afford and then you won't have a problem.
Try to be mindful of this: other customers at the shop are customers OF the shop. You mess with them you mess with the shops livelihood. So try really hard not to be a douche and scare off other customers. They will go somewhere else because YOU made them uncomfortable. You just stole revenue from the store by reducing their customer base. Please don't roll your eyes and make side comments, act condescending to new vapers and/or smokers that don't know as much as your expert ass who's been vaping all of 3 months. You don't own vaping, you don't have a tollbooth on the 'coolness' of vaping and you should mind your own damn business because you don't own the shop either.
The community is bigger than just YOU and ME, and it's important for people to feel at ease within the community.
Are you guilty of the 7 cardinal sins of vaping?
1. Mooch juice
2. Hit somebody's mod that doesn't like to have other mouths on their mouthpiece
3. Brag too much about your stuff - somebody out there has better
4. Insult other people's stuff - they are proud of their stuff, who are you to judge?
5. Use the customers of a shop for your own business agenda - Vape shop trolling
6. Steal the good reputation of others by association for purposes of excess mooching and/or exploitation. As soon as people realize your true nature of moochery you won't be kindly recieved.
7. Don't steal gear or juice from people that have a big bag of goodies. Too often mods go missing from people's bags.
Also don't mess with other people's spouses at the vape shop, they didn't go to the shop to get their freak OFF. So if you gotta get your swerve ON do it someplace else. It's not really a social club. It's more like an AA meeting. So no 13th steppin at the vape shop. Hands off the goods and merch of others.
Also don't mess with other people's money. If you are doing a buy sell or trade honor the arrangement and don't cheat the other person. Social Media drives the vaping community, you will make a name for yourself and news travels fast. So if you want to be part of the community, act with integrity.

Tell me to shut my pie hole if I'm wrong. I've just seen some really ignorant shit that cannot be overlooked.

Anybody can build their own coils. Take ownership of your vape and build your own RDA's. Don and his wife show how simple it really is to build a LEGIT vape for yourself. Now no excuses. Take responsibility for your vaping, your equipment, your build and learning your ohms law.
Don is Spot On!
talks safety and caution wisely as well.

I did this build just to experiment. I suggest not doing it, way to low ...
This is Banana Vape. He pushes the envelope as a technical build guy. Please note that he states in his video and title: Not Recommended. Alan is an advanced vaping and building experienced at doing this stuff, and he is willing to take risks that most of us should not take.
I don't mind when a guy who knows exactly what he is doing demonstrates the risky side of sub ohm vaping builds. I mind it when folks build and vape without even knowing the risks of their build.
So enjoy this video, and watch how a master bends the elements of nature in this really difficult build. And don't try this at home.
Thanks Alan, awesome videos.
