You haven't posted roll in a week. You made it clear that you find KTC offensive. You also made it clear that you are leaving... Why do you keep posting up here in intros? Be fair to the quitters that are beginning their quit, move along if that is your choice.
Hey man, we can lock this thread so that people can't keep commenting and potentially putting offensive things in your intro. Just say the word. Seems like that would be what you would want since you're moving on and all. Fiddlesticks, I bet you won't even be back to read this since you've already moved on. In any event, glad you found what you needed somewhere else. The mission is quit, so go wherever helps you.
Good idea. Please lock this thread.

This site has a great number of people who care and really want it help others quit.

Stay quit!

ReeseB - This thread gives me an opportunity make a point. So thanks for your post. I hope you stay around and you learn and grow.

You came in late and didn't say anything because you were so offended. You didn't get involved because of the avatars etc.

Your attitude and approach is pure selfishness, self-riteous and cowardly. It's all the characteristics of an addict, and after all these days, you have't grown as a man. You may not be using nic, but you are white-knuckling it, worried about the outside appearances instead of working this through from the inside out.

Let me ask you - Do you think you are the only guy with daughters on here? The only married guy? The only one with sisters or a mom or grandma? Did you pause to even consider this, or did you just immediately go to your overall condemnation of everyone. I'm super glad you feel so good about being able to be the one to pick up the first rock and throw it.

Did you spend any time on chat? Did you spend anytime texting someone? Did you make phone calls to encourage someone or check in on them? Do you know any one of the many women on this site and did you talk to them about it? Did you even once PM me and reason with me when I'm posting my comments or pictures? How many people have you actively reached out to help quit in the days since you've been on here? How many posts have you placed that shared what you were going through so others could feel like they weren't alone.

You choose to focus on one part of this thing and you missed the entire point of it. Brotherhood. You seem to be all about the accountability aspect of it, but you have no clue on the brotherhood portion.

I have at least 50 quitters phone numbers in my phone. Some are vets with a 1000 + days, some are just finishing their first week. I've got the phone numbers of 3 women quitters, that I have talked to, texted with and posted support for. Do you know the one woman in our group? Did you know we had a woman in our group? Do you know her real name? I know all of that. I've taken the time to get to know her. I've talked to her when she was having really hard times. And you know what, it's with that confidence that I know that if I ever post something that really makes her feel like shit, she'd call me, text me or just delete whatever the hell I posted. That's called relationship, friendship, brotherhood. It's a key component of staying quit as life gives us what life gives us, and the truly sad thing is that you've completely missed that message. Do you know we've got dudes that were on the verge of tears this week going through hard times. You wouldn't know that, but I do because they called to talk to me about it. Did you post anything last week when THansen posted the stuff with his mom and cancer? Where was your support for women then? Where was your great example to your daughters? You can't support a guy that cusses or says talks about BJ's who's mom is battling cancer? What's the message you are sending Reese?

In terms of your threat - your comments absolutely confirm that you don't know and furthermore have not even taken the time to research addiction recovery in any meaningful way. Have you ever been to an AA meeting? Alanon? Any kind of group therapy or addiction recovery meeting? Do you know what the rules for those places are? Do you know the kinds of things that get said there? You're statements are completely ignorant!!!!

Do you know why this kind of talk is tolerated at all? It's because it's honest. And the number one thing addiction recovery groups have to battle with is getting people to be honest with themselves and with others. That starts with a completely open and safe environment to say whatever the hell is on their mind or heart. Honesty starts there. As addicts we have to learn how to cope with all these awful feelings and things that go on in the world. Getting an addict to speak honestly is one of the hardest things to do, because especially in this culture, we're so busy projecting a good image. Image management and addiction recovery are two polar opposites. Look it up.

I am one of the worst offenders of your complaint Reece, but that's not why I'm writing to you. I'm writing this because I want you to experience what freedom truly is. How it will feel for you when you know you can be you with the knowledge that you've got a whole bunch of awesome people watching over you. I know for a fact, that if I get out of line or I'm missing the boat, that it'll get addressed and addressed quickly. Get involved Reece. You obviously care. Why not take a leadership role and do something about it instead of throwing your hands up in the air and walking away. The comments about things being so pervasive here is myopic. Do you know you could reach out to just one quitter, some newbie or someone in our group and truly make a difference....or do you still just want to sit back and have a "what's in it for me" attitude.

Look beyond the words to the heart of the matter Reece. That's what I try to teach my daughter.
Thank you very much for the post, Bronc. And I hope that everyone see it. I really can't argue with you about any of it except that my 'threat' was not intentional - just speaking the truth. I am a moderator on three sites - all of which have standards supporting the respect of others and one site doesn't even allow the word 'fricken'. Pornography is not allowed on any of the sites. Maybe that's why I'm expecting too much here.

This site clearly isn't for me and I am clearly the odd man out. I'm posting roll at another site now.

Thanks again.

I joined this forum late in my quit at 60 days. As a result, I didn't get the chance to get to know many of the quitters or the people who keep this great site running. So first off I'd like to congratulate all you guys who have decided to quit this awful addiction to nicotine. Secondly, I'd like to thank all the people who work so hard to keep this site going. You are doing a fantastic job!

This site has taught me one important thing. Something that I needed to learn and something that will keep me quit for the rest of my life. This site taught me that I AM AN ADDICT. I wasn't just a guy who liked to chew spit tobacco and wanted to quit and did it. I was and still am addicted to nicotine. I always will be addicted to nicotine because I allowed myself to get addicted over 30 years ago. I can't dabble in this stuff and use it every once in a while because I am just like the alcoholic who can't allow himself just one drink and I am just like the meth head who can't ever use again. I am a drug addict. We all are here on this forum.

Stay quit guys. Your life really does depend on it. You can no longer use nicotine in any form because you are an ADDICT and WILL go back to using every day if you do.

Sucks, but true.

Huh.

Proverbs 18:2

"A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion."


A Quit Plan: Do you have one?


CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit.
After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco. SportDad 1/13/05

Warm summer sun, shine kindly here;
Warm southern wind, blow softly here;
Green sod above, lie light, lie light.-
Good-night, dear heart, good-night.

Be silly, be honest, be kind

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 guys have made some good points. I'm glad to have at least gotten you to think more about this site. Regarding the mention from tbe American Cancer Society, one call to them would get that dropped. I would never do that. I'm just sayin'. No reputable organization is going to knowingly associate itself with a site such as this because of the reasons mentioned. It makes them look bad.
This veiled threat pisses me off actually..

You came here and you are you are 129 days quit.. good for you, thats what this place is for.. However in 129 days you have accumulated how many posts? 83.. How many just in your group made it to hall of fame? at least 35 that still post..

And what if you did manage to get the link removed and just one person didn't hear about KTC because you disagree with some members posts.. And they didn't quit when they could have? That's what you are angling for here? You "got yours" so forget everyone who comes after you right?

How many new peoples quits have you helped cultivate? How have you been paying it forward Reese? By giving veiled threats to remove a link (which they wont remove anyway, you think you are the first person who has been offended? You think they just added the link and never read the site?) but the fact that you think you have that right really irks the fuck out of me..

How dare you...
Sorry man. I certainly wasn't threatening anything. Just being real.
No, real is the simple fact that the folks here are trying to help you, and have helped you, stay quit.

Day 129? That is real. But it can vanish in an instant. One bad decision. You know it. While you dont post much, clearly you have read around and seen the cavers come and go.

Can you tell me what the common theme is from them?

Honestly - whats your angle? why after 129 days are you now saying it offends you?
It's bugged me from day one. That's why I haven't been active here. i know that there are a lot people who care about helping others quit and this is probably the best site there is for education and support and a no excuses real quit. i just think this site needs an enema.

I think many more people could be reached if women were not degraded so badly here. Standards need to be made. What goes on here is okay for those who stay, but I think to most of the world it's wrong and it's certainly not necessary.
Examples please.
The problem is not the problem.  The problem is your attitude about the problem.  Do you understand?

Draw Fire

If its too much trouble to post roll call, you could always fuck off.

You guys have made some good points. I'm glad to have at least gotten you to think more about this site. Regarding the mention from tbe American Cancer Society, one call to them would get that dropped. I would never do that. I'm just sayin'. No reputable organization is going to knowingly associate itself with a site such as this because of the reasons mentioned. It makes them look bad.
Reesub,

Change your avatar settings so you dont have to look at what offends you.

Second, take what you need and leave the rest. Your here for you.

Then why are you still here? To talk negatively upon the site and how "they would
Never associate themselves with a site like this"? Get the hell out of here dude. Just remember WE are trying to help YOU. You have averaged a post per day. I don't see you helping too many others....

By the way, if the ACS wouldn't like to be associated with a bunch of dedicated, selfless, and honest bad ass soldiers against nicotine, then they can get the fuck out of here too....FTFT....out
Welcome again Reese to the best place to get quit and "be quit".
Quitting is real simple, yet probably the hardest thing we will ever do.
There is a lot to learn about our addiction. This knowledge gives us tools to be quit ODAAT.
Nic is a poison. Poison to the brain. It messes with our capcity to think properly.
Take my advice and relax...soak in the good...focus on your quit...take what you need, help others when you are able...this site really works just the way it is. 40,000 quitters are not wrong.
post roll (when your feet hit the floor)
keep your word (your word is good, right)
wake and repeat.

Never give up, never surrender. Quitting is hard, cancer in the jaw is hard...I prefer quitting.
Keeping my jaw and tongue...I like them.
It's poison I tell ya, You wouldn't drink Liquid Drano, would ya?
