I guess give it a while. I'm still using dial up.

Unless, you were serious about the dial up?

Yeah, unfortunately I am. I've had it take a few days before a "longer" email goes through. I have everything set to not open pictures on the screen. Amazingly I still have this gateway 486x going! Hard to find parts, though.

Thanks for the dibs though. GG has one of those new wiz bang Apple IIe computers, and he can post like a madman. If I lose out, alas. It's all good.

I'm just fuckin' with you.

However, it is bad form to join the community to immediately start trying to sell stuff. I see you're posting in some other areas, which is good. Read up, and if you decide to join in more, you'll have a good time.

In any case, my original post is legitimate and I'll check back tomorrow to see if there's any clarification before proceeding.

Also, just wanted to mention I'm a member of other non-cigar forums where selling appropriate items to members is allowed from day 1 if you donate to running the site. I didn't see that option here but would have gladly done so.

And now we come to the crux. We like to keep the rules pretty simple, and allow for personal interpretation / norms / consequences.

ETA: I get the impression you were trying to mind your manners, and I appreciate that, however cigar boards are different and you're most likely going to get the same response anywhere you go, bar a few shitholes.

If there is no interest within a couple of days I will delete my original post.

No problem. You're at kind of an impasse, seeing as how you're trying to get out of the hobby, and I'm encouraging you to participate in the community which will inevitably lead to more smoking.:smiley37:

Oh my. :)

Sometimes I actually forget about dial up internets.

Those were the days...?

Really???? Those were the days??? Waiting a full on ONE (1) minute to download a single, solitary 800x600 pixel picture!!!??????? And you were lucky if it only took one minute sometimes.

SO NO. Those were not the days. :smiley12:

It looks like my PM is disabled now. Please try email and if that doesn't work I can provide contact information to anyone interested in these boxes.

Wait, we have infractions? You got one, and continue with the sale attempt?

Most people remember the things of the past with fondness, even if they weren't all that great. Dial up internet isn't one of those things, it will never be missed.

I'm with you, waiting minutes for that picture of Burt Reynolds sitting on the Trans Am to download so you could save it to your desktop background was excruciating. I much prefer the quickness of today's internet.

We don't use ipads here because they can't multitask.
