    Red face Intro from probably the first of a few stray sheep

    Hi.

    My real name is craig. On forums where "craig" is taken, I use "baldheadracing," and that is my name on CigarLive. I used to post there quite a bit until I got a bad taste in my mouth for making comments about a company's marketing in the spring.

    I recently started posting at CigarLive more often, but then the sale happened. That prompted me to look at the reaction on other cigar forums. After doing some reading, I realized that my posts from the spring - which were inocuous - had been deleted. Then there was this stuff about Rod from CP, which didn't make sense to me. (I am not on CP.) Finally, puff.com was announced yesterday. That switched me from wait-and-see to posting that I was bailing. I bear no animosity to Daniel or Jon, I just know that I don't want to be on puff.com

    So I'm here. As I started smoking cigars less than a year ago, I have little of substance to contribute to this forum's focus and will generally lurk, and hopefully learn.

    On to the next!

    Hi Craig - I think many people here know how you are feeling. While there are a lot of good people over at CL, I stopped posting there a while back because I didn't agree with some things I saw there, as did several folks here.

    Welcome.

    hi craig. what have you been smoking lately?

    Thanks for the welcomes!

    Shelby07: I'm not expecting a mass exodus from any of the purchased forums. Almost everyone will give puff.com a chance.

    Cabaiguan Juan: latest were a Por Larranaga Panatella, a JLP Conservas, and a Monte #4. Right now I'm smoking a RP Vintage '1990' second.

    Corvin: Cool! ... and you're only 45 minutes away from Bacchus cigar lounge - the only public place to smoke in Canada west of Montreal, I suspect ...

    Welcome. Good to see some more people seeing the light. I am sure you are aware that things here are done a little differently than CL, but for the right reasons. I hope you enjoy your stay.

    I've seen your posts at CL.......at least before I got my password scrambled and was then banned and couldn't look at the "private" forums any longer.

    Read around the board and get a feel for how things are done here as it is nothing like what you are used to at CL.

    I hope you enjoy your stay.

    Welcome to the board Craig, glad to have you.

    It's okay not to bear any animosity, I just hope you understand all that is wrong with the way these two guys operate and understand that we don't tolerate their kind of deceptive scumbag behaviour here on CSmokers.

    Welcome from Utah, Craig!

    I tried to reply to the big Caputo/puff.com thread yesterday with no luck. Password has been scrambled or something too. Oh well. I am sure my post would have been quickly deleted anyway

    Hey, Craig. Welcome from (my last day in) Mississippi.

    I hope you enjoy your stay here.

    We won't play "jokes" on your password.
