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.

Until proven otherwise, ALL members are treated with the basic respect that all human beings deserve, so in that sense yes, we are all equal. However, in the sense of equality in sharing the fruits of this community,,,,,,,NO, we are most definitely NOT all equal. You must earn your place in the community through your daily interactions with others, that is how it worked for everybody else here. Cigary has earned exactly the amount of respect he is getting.
So, you want to demand an apology from a very senior and respected member of this board, while defending a member who has steadfastly refused to apologize for actions that are of a much more serious nature???? Give me a fuckin' break. Go ahead and report the post if you must, I haven't seen Shagaroo around in a while, maybe he'll handle your report. If you have read the rules so well then no doubt you will recall that we are a member moderated community.
Oh, and yes, I edited your original post. I'm sure Basil will do an adequate job of responding to the parts I chose to remove.
goddamn lighten up you nerd. Also understand people know each other here from all over the internet, not just here, and they also frequently do business with each other. Its essential to kick dickheads out because if you don't, people will eventually start losing money or cigars around here.
End of line.

I'd like to personally thank those involved for filling about 45 minutes of my morning with this drama. I just made the comment last night to my wife that I needed a good book to read, at the least, I can be satisfied to postpone this till this weekend.
Cigary- You might be a great guy, but you haven't really done yourself any justice. Your expectation of a clean slate without the judgement is not realistic, especially with the number of boards and small groups in the cigar world. Everyone uses past experiences and info to make choices, if you dont', your really not learning anything from life. It is IMO a little hipocritical for to you put the blanket of guilt on everyone else because of how they have acted towards others and not expect it to be put on you. Learn to accept that respect has to been earned not given without a good reason. You are a noob, accept that, you'd be a noob and have to learn your way on other boards also, not just the ones with cigar lovers. Stop being sarcastic, is this how you feel you can act IRL? What makes you think you can come in here act like an ass, my thoughts are it's because you have a keyboard and monitor in front of you not the other person, which makes you an ethug. There may be some dick$ here, it you don't like them, stay away from them if you should stay, and stop trying to show how much more mature you are then them, it make you look stupid and more importantly you'll lose.
ROCKYPATELSOLDIERBROTHER- You scare me!!!!!
I ask that those who have posted, continue to post, I ask that if you haven't posted in this thread, you please join in. I do this mainly for selfish reasons, as I am a very busy person (obviously if I spent an hour of my work day reading this one thread) and may not have time to get a good book before this weekend, therefore it is your duty to entertain The Korean.
Also, if you should wish, please list suggestions of possible good reads.
Believe Dat!
Gentlemen, I was looking for a cigar forum when I came upon this one. It's not about people here but posts and there is no equality at all because the only opinions you care about are your own. You treat newcomers with no respect whatsoever as you mock them and if they don't fit your 'mold' and act accordingly then they are given a thumbs down attitude or worse yet, they EDIT your words and attack you. NEW MEMBERS BEWARE if you are looking for a laid back forum you won't find it here because these members who are led by a few malcontents will attack if you don't say or opine in the manner that they feel is in their interests or opinions. I am sure the administrator didn't have this in mind when he started this site or else he would not have written the rule that I stated.
I wouldn't even waste my time in reporting Basil as he is already at the bottom of the food chain and there isn't anything else I could do in this regard. For those who read this and don't submit your opinion be careful how you choose to submit any future opinions in the future and good luck to you.
I'm still laughing to myself over a few of these so called men on here who feel they have to flex their online muscles to make themselves feel superior. Leave it to a few to screw up something decent for the rest. There are too many other cigar forums out there where decent people still go. For all of your offensive language you like to use on here that only condemns who you are as a person which I know you will never understand because you are already total reprobates. Don't bother answering on this post as I will not be back to read your neanderthal opinions but I'm quite sure you will have to answer to rationalize your behavior with each other and all of the backslapping that goes on when you attack others.
I guess when you step on your penis by trying to stick up for a known asshat, you get what you deserve. 6 posts and you're already on your way out! Almost a record.

Geesh, you will simply never get it!! You can certainly fling it, but your panties get all kinda wadded up when it comes back at ya' huh.
If you had left this alone and simply STFU you wouldn't be involved in this at all, your bad, not anyone elses fault.
If Cigary would have made a simple, unconditional, public apology after he stepped in it the first time at CP, he wouldn't be where he is either.
Simple as that.
I've only been registered here for for a month(1 month exactly actually. YAY ME!) and I was greeted and welcomed here with the utmost respect.
Learn to adapt. NEWBIES DON'T BEWARE, this is a good community with a ton of great info and good people. Just don't come in expecting to change the world, join for what it is, not for what YOU want to make it.
Dude, seriously, I thought you had your fuckin' helmet on. My bad.
I mean really, thanks for straightening me out on this one.
I dunno man. Now I really feel bad. I mean I have both friends and relatives who are gay and to think of the damage done to their esteem by trying to somehow imply, even as a joke, that you may be in any way connected to the homosexual community is just fucking unconscionable. I hope none of them see this.
There we go!
<sigh> fuck me. One step forward and two back. Ok, if this is a question then I guess the answer is yes?
And that, my friend, is your goddamn problem.
While you're at it, understand that you stuck your nose where it did not belong. Funny thing, you fucking knew exactly what you were doing, with your phony humble self-deprecating bullshit as is obviated in the 1st post quoted. Then, you lying piece of shit, you self-righteously take, I repeat, TAKE, offense when someone actually "threw a tomato" in your direction. Then you climb on your fucking high horse and start spouting idiocies that only serve to pull the curtain back and show your true colors.
lol. Your evil, my flashlight.
What, you mean like an apologyapology?
mm hm, right.
Here's the thing: you, with all of your less than 10 posts, could not possibly understand what the fuck you are looking at when you see this forum or any like it while thinking that you can bring your goddamn crybaby whineybitch punkass on here and cynically, and condescendingly, preach about your fake bullshit lofty values and morals. Fuck you, you piece of no-brain worm shit. You might be able to fool people at work, your friends (who are idiots for letting you call them friends), etc. but here we can, sooner or later, spot grandstanding, sanctimonious bullshit when we see it and you have walked into our living room, dropped your pants, and laid a big one right in the middle of our living room. You insult us with your tiny brain fucking smug puke about how you've been "mistreated". You insult newcomers by implying that they can't think for themselves, or worse, by assuming that they may think like you. It would be foolish on my part to ask you to apologize to this board for your complete lack of integrity; you'd never understand why, or even how. So, how about you just stay gone like you promised and kindly go pound sand up your ass.

is it just me, or did what Basil said to rockypatelsolderbrother not seem very offensive at all?

I think they do it with the hope that we'll beg them not to go!![]()
