Kevin7 has been banned

If you make an agreement with someone from the forums, you keep your end of the bargain. That’s what makes us a brotherhood. Back in 2004 when the board started Kevin7 came here chasing asshats from other forums. His actions helped set the tone for the Cigarsmokers we all have come to love today.

I don’t like doing it one bit, but it has come to pass that after weeks and weeks of missed promises and lost opportunities debts have still not been paid. Kevin7, you have been banned from the forum. If at any point in time you wish to come back simply repay the debts you have promised to pay.

Please do the right thing.

http://www.cigarsmokers.com/threads/...060#post161060

As of today, both ashauler and Smoked! Are owed “small packages”

It is also of note that a Secret Santa style pass for halloween was completed by Kevin on another board in October.......before any of the debts here were settled and nearly 2 months after he indicated he knew about the debts.

I initially covered Kevins debt with no intention of being repaid, and said as much to Kevin via PM when I covered it. My feelings on the matter changed as I began to discover more and more that made it appear to me that the debts here were being blown off.

Kevin then sent me a PM on 4 January stating that he needed to square up with me for covering him....mailman wouldn't take the cigars, but I must take them. I figured he was gonna finally step up and do the right thing.....so I sent my address. That was almost a month ago, 5 January, nothing has been seen here, and no DC# has been sent.

It makes sense to note that I compiled that list that nhcigarfan posted and "I received a PM from Smoked!" is referring to myself receiving that PM.

I've read comments on another board that eluded to the situation; now it makes sense. I wasn't aware of all that went on.

For those who are new(er) to the board, let this be a lesson that no matter who you are, how long you've been here and how high your reputation, you too can fall. Don't get in over your head, if you have to wonder whether you're over your head, you are. If life gets in the way, take the 2 minutes to contact people ASAP via PM or a post. We're always going to do what is best for the community, even if it means banning other FOGs.

Kevin owed me too for some LGCs he bought from a sale I did over the Summer. I never received a check, but noticed he was not online and active, so I figured something was up. In the middle of this recent mess, Kevin posted something to the effect that he was going to make good to some folks and if anyone else was owed to let him know.

I sent Kevin a PM letting him know. He replied acting shocked that he forgot and asked how much he owed me. I replied stating - no worries- that he could keep the LGCs as a gift, no payment expected. That was a month ago. No reply, no thank you, no nothing.

I did not come forward about this before because of the respect I HAD for Kevin and assuming he was going through some rough shit.

I have lost that respect due to:

>All the other debts I see on here still unpaid
>The fact that he forgot that he owed me and how much (not very responsible)
>A simple "Thank You" reply would have been good in my book

I sincerely hope Kevin can make good with people and at the very least- communicate.

Sorry for not airing this out to the community sooner. Bad form on my part.:smiley18:
