I'm trying to figure out how to do it on my phone. I've got a ton of down time today so I'll be doing that for sure. Thanks guys!
Welcome Shaun and thanks for your service. Here are roll call instructions for a variety of devices:

Try these instructions for: PC How to post roll

1. Login, go to your quit page, think about what you are going to post.
2. Find the most recent post
3. hit F5 or refresh the page
4. Press "quote" on the roll
5. Click in the box that has all of the Roll posts (the lower box), hit CTRL-A to select all and Press CTRL-X to CUT, not copy-if you copy, then you'll double post roll.
6. Click to the reply window and press CTRL+V to paste it in. Then write in your name, day and your promise
7. Press submit-done.


Try these instructions for: iPad Roll Post

Step 1 - find the last roll call
Step 2 - tap "quote" icon in the upper right hand corner
Step 3 - tap anywhere in the bottom box, when the flashing blue cursor pops up tap it
Step 4 - a box should pop up that reads "select/select all/paste" tap on "select all"
Step 5 - the entire lower box should be highlighted with a pop up that reads "cut/copy/paste"
tap on "cut". All the text in the lower box will disappear.
Step 6 - tap in the upper box until the cursor appears
Step 7 - tap the cursor until a box reading "paste" appears, then tap paste
Step 8 - you are now ready to type in your posted roll! To get to where you want to type use
two fingers to scroll within the box.
Step 9 - tap on "add reply" below bottom box
Step 10 - Stay Quit


Instructions for Posting with a Phone

(1) hit quote.
(2) go to the second text box.
(3) hold your finger on the text until an option box appears. Choose "cut all".
(4) go to the top text box (which is empty) and hold your finger there. A text box will appear and you choose "paste".
(5) add your name to roll call
(6) tap on "add reply" below bottom box
(7) Stay Quit

Post Roll every day or communicate with someone and have them post via text, email or call. Get as many number of your group as you can and use them frequently. Keep in touch with your quit brothers. Send them a PM, text or call every few days just to keep an open line of communication. Give them your email address. Make it IMPOSSIBLE for you to go a day without several people contacting you all day if you don't post roll.

Remember, the only true way to mess up roll call is to not be on it!


Get over to November and get hooked up on their roll. Any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out.

A journey is just a series of steps over a long period of time.

I can tell you from experience that quitting is a step by step, moment by moment endeavor. I want to be quit, and that is why I wake up each morning and post roll. It is step one. I've done it in the past for the last 1493 days, and I'm doing it today. But, what I've done and where I'm going mean shit if I don't worry about RIGHT NOW.

Welcome aboard, man. Let's get this done step by step.
Logged
In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021

You can do this Shaun. I bought that one more can shit for years. Now is the time. Post roll daily and keep your word. It gets easier. But it is so worth it.

What's going on, I decided today is the day that I'm kicking the habit..I started dipping JR year of high school, and "quit" for a couple of months..by quit I mean replace with the bad habit of Cigarettes...which eventually turned intO doing both. I'm in the military now (Navy) and have a lot of down time, and dipping seemed to be the way to help pass time and made shinning my boots that much more enjoyable. I quit smoking and now I'm working on the dip..which is going to be real tough for me. Grizzly wintergreen has always been my weapon of choice, and even when I tell myself "that's the last can" I find myself saying screw it and walking to the store to get just one more. I almost had that moment today when my wife called me...I kind of saw it as that "don't be stupid and just go back to the barracks" moment. So..here I am, ready to beat this shit and be free of that ball and chain.
First thank you for your service! Read the welcome center and learn how to Post Roll. I dipped 38 years I've been nic free 215 days,Awesome! This shits hard you're gonna need help and you've came to the right place. Post roll and let your new life of freedom begin! I quit with you today!

Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD
