Unspoken rules

Y'all have me confused with someone else. But again, I do appreciate the amount of attention you all give me.

Yawn.

Your lips say no, but that pesky IP address gives you away...

This is not some community where anyone who can type on a keyboard is necessarily accepted. Not that the community is snobbish, but if your intent for this board is only to enrich yourself without consideration of others - you should rethink your purpose for joining. This is a community of individuals, with a similar passion for cigars. Beyond that - it is also a community of individuals where honest and integrity do matter.

However - in the words of our fearless leader:

Duplicate Accounts are not permitted. Anyone caught signing up duplicate accounts is subject to immediate banning (yes your main account will be banned too). If you think you might fall under this new policy, then PM me and we can handle the matter with out the drama.

Thanks.

Mr. "hog" has been given plenty of latitude to speak his piece - far more than he should have been permitted according to board rules. More importantly - far more than he deserved considering the absolute snarky method he used to post on this site. This sneaking around nonsense is nothing by horse hockey pucks and completely against the standards of this community.

IP evidence alone is an absolutely compelling reason to send Mr. "hog" packing. in addition - clearly from his own admission he is playing dress up. If you can't stand by your own reputation, you certainly will not stand by some contrivance of a reputation. Such nonsense cannot and will not be tolerated in this community.

If at any time Mr. "hog" wishes to rejoin this community to further state his case - so be it. I, for one, welcome him coming back in his real identity to defend his position. After all - even if I do not agree with his position we truly are a democracy.

In all fairness to this entire community - to seek reinstatement "hog" will need to ask the admistration to have his account reactivated. Because he at least owes this community the honesty to identify himself, no reinstatement will be considered until he has satisfactorily identified himself. We will then leave it up to the rest of the community to decide his fate beyond that.

'nuff said...


To the brother that kept me honest (you know who you are) - THANK YOU. I hear your message loud and clear!

Good riddance.

A big shout out to our friend Mr. hog - who has been joining us several times a day via TapaTalk!

Hey "hog" - I'm thinking with all the honesty and integrity you profess - and this incredible base of folks that hang on your every word - you'd want to finish what you started in dressing down this community of misfits. Are you coming back any time soon? Drop me a line!!!
