S3cretz Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 The current Guide is usefull but pretty basic. I wondered If maby we could update it with some more specific things and faqs like: How to clean a hookah How to pack tangiers How to pack a phunnel Heat management I know there are threads about theese things but it would be nice if they all got centralized to the beginners thread or maby a faq.

mushrat Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 well, we run into a problem with some of these topics. No 3 of us can agree on the answer. The cleaning one would be easy. How to pack Tangiers or a phunnel? there are as many ways as people doing the packing. Heat management? Some like it hot, some like it more smoke but with taste, different coals all give off different amounts of heat therefor you use different amounts. Just saying...

Chreees Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Yeah, that was the issue we ran into when we put it together before we made it public. We tried to keep it as objective as possible, since there's many different ways to do the same thing, like Mush said. You make it too subjective, then you get people telling you its wrong. That is why I've posted some more "subjective" stuff in the how-to section, such as Coconara Heat Management and a How-to for Tangiers. This is how I myself do these things. A few of them are in my sig, I believe. I'm more than willing to make more if there's something you need and maybe I can cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S3cretz Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) damm I thought it would be something like that. what about a new forum sub-section? under the how to section a how to basic hookah? where anyone can post basics.

Chreees Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 That's pretty much how the how-to section is already. --- - Tapatalk'd via iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwind Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I haven't ready the Begginer Guide here. Does it have a good set of links? You could just add a "For Info On" section. Then have sets of links to threads involving the topics with good information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 heh, who's information? Your way to pack it? my way to pack it? his way to pack it? Beyond the basics of how to set up a hookah, everyone does it a bit differently. Thats what part of owning a hookah is all about, experimenting and finding YOUR perfect set up. I mean, lets face it there are only so many variables, tobacco brand, heat levels and bowl type really. People should work out for themselves how to make their particular combination work for them. What would you want to see in an advanced section really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Oh, it comes up now and then. Usually with the same short discussion. I mean, it really does just get down to personal set up at this point no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
