Hi All....On day 21 of my quit! Been trolling for 21 days as well, just posted roll call on December 2014 pre-HOV. Not 100% sure I did it right as my post came through in the support section. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
I've messed up roll. It happens. Basically make sure nobody is currently in the posting status before you post. You can see that at the bottom left of the page. If someone is posting just wait a couple of minutes or so. Then click Quote. In the bottom window do a ctrl+a, then a ctrl+x. Then in the top window do a ctrl+v, and add your name. Done. Welcome aboard!
Much appreciated! Do I need to officially join the group or just jump right in and post roll?
To officially join the group you must wash and wax my car. Once that is done you may post roll. Or just post roll and you can owe me one.
Ha! Not sure its possible to wash and wax cars without a dip in! Atleast that is what I thought 20ish days ago. Thanks for the laugh.

My car, too. Then you're in.

Actually, you're doing this right if you're not putting poison in your body (that includes pills, patches, and any nicotine bullshit). Post roll is an entirely different game. Like washing cars, messing it up is a right of passage. The mods are always lurking around and can fix anything. Takes the pressure off, huh?

You've taken the first step. We're here to help the rest of the way. Congrats on a great choice. As for posting roll...you'll figure it out.

Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

Great decision to quit today brother! You have made the right decision and you will understand exactly how to post roll soon enough. Just give it another shot and stay quit today my friend. Since you have been looking around this site for a few days you are probably familiar with how we quit. We quit ODAAT (One Day At A Time) That means we are going to post roll and promise to everyone that we are quit for that day and then we come back the next day and do it again. We do this EDD (Every Damn Day) there are no days off for tobacco and nicotine to play their mind tricks so there should not be a day off for posting roll.

I highly suggest getting to know all of your fellow quitters in the December group and outside of your group. Trade phone numbers and emails and text them or email them. This really strengthens your quit and brings you closer to your fellow quitters. Also if you are unable to post roll for a day due to vacation or just can't get to a computer you can text your quit promise to a quitter and they will post for you.

Drink plenty of water these first few days and stay on this site reading and learning from other badasses on how you can also do this. If I can do this anyone can.

Also, the 18 August quit date is true (for dip), but I made it until 02 Sep on Nic. gum. So my real nic free date is 02 Sept.
