Introduction

[NullSmurf]

You're what, 53, and you haven't learned how not to be a dick? You can't "man up" and duke it out on the Internet, Gary. I wish I could, but there isn't enough left of my body. You have to be articulate and to some extent, diplomatic. The Floating Fat man on Cigar Live quietly swept you under the rug, as is his style for those who annoy him. Banned on CigarPass for spouting shit, public and private. Where else are you no longer welcome? You're running out of boards, Gary.

I voted here once when I should not have, but I'd suggest you give him another chance. I think he is actually trying to contribute to the community.

Bruce,
I respect and value your opinion as always, however, on this one I think I'm gonna have to be the glass half-empty kinda guy ,,,,,,I see no apology or any type of contrition forthcoming from craptain comma. The whole situation on CP could have been avoided.

Perhaps my perception could be changed,,,,,,but not without action from cigary!!

And to clarify for you, cigary, by action I mean an unqualified apology to all members you have attacked and offended. Others have stepped in a pile of shit when they first joined this and other boards,,,,,but many have succeeded in wiping it off and removing the stink.

we gonna give this guy a chance to make new or do we just get the torches and pitchfork?

Does it really sound like he might get a chance? This idiot trolled all over another board. What he has to do in order to "get another chance" is issue a sincere, no-strings-attached apology, shut the fuck up, and give it some time. I don't think he's the kind of person who can nut up and do this. So no, fuck him and another chance.

Um, you've posted here 3-4 times this year and, like 4 times last year and you want to come on here and say a troll deserves another chance on this board? That's pretty goddamn presumptuous.

True. Opinions and anuses, you know, and I was wrong with Bill. My dog in this hunt is only a chi-hua. Funny that he picked the toughest block in the neighborhood to make good. I'm suggesting you cut him some slack while he figures out how to handle himself. At worst, you recharge your new chew toy.

My post count is pretty much a nothing and it looks like I might need to buy a helmet. I don't assume anything on here but would like to at least say that everyone deserves a second chance and as we all know people make mistakes and at least be given a chance to redeem themselves. Who in these forums has never made a mistake or who in any forum as not stepped on their genitals in their life? I would hope that this forum of men/women that we are all equal and we can come on here and enjoy the fruits of this board and have a good time.

I am now ready for any tomatoes or old heads of lettuce to be thrown at me as I just put on my helmet.

Thanks Bruce, but as someone else put it:

Bruce you know the chance has passed for that to happen. We don't believe in the clean slate approach like CL. He stepped on his Dick and now he has to deal with it. He isn't man enough to simple say he is sorry without the BUT and then STFU. He needs to be right and not be responsible for his actions. It doesn't fly here, or CP, Snobs, and other places.

He's done!

So, no dice.

I would hope that this forum of the fruits of this board can come on here and have a good time.

Brothers Of The Fruit?? Wrong board.

Mr. Basil, I saw that you misquoted what I said on my post and that is indeed distressing because anyone can plainly see what my original post was and what I said and I quote:

I would hope that this forum of men/women that we are all equal and we can come on here and enjoy the fruits of this board and have a good time.

Your reference was to make my remark mean something else which I was not inferring at all. Why would you twist the words to make it appear as if I said something when I did not? It makes me think that your actions speak volumes as to what you are really trying to do as NullSmurf was just making an overture to bring fairness to another member and your remarks were made not to appease or understand but rather to inflame. I can only imagine that this might not be the first time you have misquoted others just so that you can trash them and accuse them of what you sir, are most guilty yourself?

Why would you make a sexual 'joke' towards another member, albeit a junior member, with a remark like you made about me saying that I was on the wrong board? I understand that guys love to joke around on here and be sarcastic when they speak about things or other people but when you misquote and instigate problematic issues you demean what this message board is all about. There seems to be some very good people on here who just want to share their ideas and stories about cigars on here without having to read somebodys posts that just stir up trouble. I take very seriously what you posted on here and what you said and you need to apologize for your remark.

I understand all too well that new members are at a disadvantage when it comes to being the new kid on the block and that is part of the program but to suggest what you did towards me personally suggests your ID of a Reprobate is indeed true of your character; to refuse to accept; to condemn strongly as unworthy, unacceptable, or evil.

I became a member on here because a friend of mine told me how there were some great people here to get to know but what he didn't tell me about was members like yourself. Not only do you owe me an apology you should apologize for your behavior.

As a new member I did read quite a few of the rules on here:

What if I see something offensive?

You will find 'Report' links in many places throughout the board. These links allow you to alert the board staff to anything which you find to be offensive, objectionable or illegal.

Please apologize for your offensive statement towards me in the post you made.

Here is the problem with your second chance theory,,,,,,,this guy has had them. Did you read any of the links posted in this thread? I hope you did not,,,,,because if you did and still choose to stand up for this clown, your time here will not be pleasant either.

He has made no apology for any of his actions, but rather rationalized them as everybody elses problem,,,,,,,just a bunch of meanies we are, much as you are trying to say as well. You are simply re-asking the old question "Can't we all just get along?",,,,,,and, here, just as in life, the answer is a resounding NO.

This board is my home board, and I am just one who will not allow it to be infiltrated by the likes of craptain comma. I don't want any of my brothers here to be subjected to his bullshit via PM, nor do I want this board to be a refuge for those who cannot hang in the larger community. That's the function CL serves,,,,,all communities need a garbage dump.

Cigary is manipulative in his actions,,,,,placing public posts to give the appearance that he is being unjustly attacked while sending nasty PMs in the background fueling the fire. While I have no knowledge of you, the last line of your post makes me leery. Setting yourself up for martyrdom beside cigary?

You would be wise to let this go and allow the members who have significant time invested HERE to handle taking out the trash. I'm just a newbie in the grand scheme of things,,,,,the FOGS will be around soon I would imagine.

Whether you like it or not, this is what keeps our community safe and makes it what it is. There are fantastic BOTL's on this board, don't try to change the way things are done.
