Title: Vaping in the lgs
Post by: Hunteroffire9 on July 19, 2014, 03:24:14 PM
Im 13, and play at a large lgs (102 people yesterday for fnm).I find it kind of disconcerting that there are several people who are constantly vaping the whole time. Thoughts,?

If they're bothering anybody then let them know. They should have the decency to keep it to themselves. If not, then no worries.

As long as they're being nice about it and not getting cards smelly or wet I'd be fine with it. It's a lot better habit than smoking and having tried one it's kinda cool. However if studies prove they are detrimental (I doubt it, it's water and flavour) then I'd have a problem.

Save the children they are being enticed by flavors like cotton candy and razzmatazz

The cigarette company's are try to get them classified as the same as cigarette. So they will be banned inside soon enough.

Those same studies have also shown that it's more than just water and flavor.

Like what? If you're going to say something like that back it up.

Im not saying they are on the same level as cigaretts, just that they aren't completely harmless.  Now that that's out of the way

I read somewhere (i can't find it though) that burning the nicotine puts a bunch of different toxins in the air (albeit in smaller amounts than cigarrets).  This is just one study and is not perfect, but it shows my point.

I'm sorry but I was referring to nicotine free vapours. I was under the impression that vapours are nicotine free and e-cigs aren't, by definition.

In the event of e-cigs, I agree with you.

Oh, my apologies.  If it's just water and flavor, don't do it for the sole reason it smells weird/bad for everyone else.  :P

I've actually never noticed a smell. Then again the only time I can remember being near one was at a Billy Talent concert and everybody else was smoking weed. Besides when I used one so I don't really remember. Maybe different brands smell?

I've only been around 1-2 so I might be wrong. M:P

Maybe we're both right? Some stink, some don't. So as long as it doesn't stink and is nicotine free I'm fine with it.

Sometimes they do have an awful smell, but most of the time, it gives off a nice scent.  Kind of a mellow, subdued, sweet scent.
