    When 95% of your posts direct viewers to your website, I'm not interested, and will question why you are here? Hit Count?

    You'll need to put me on ignore also.

    Cholera, I think we've all been wondering how long you would just keep posting your review videos without having any real involvement in the community. You're probably a real likeable fella, but you need to get a better feel for what this conmmunity is about.

    So here's some advice from one newb to another - stop thinking like an entrepreneur and start thinking more like a cigar smoker that just wants to hang out and share.

    You probably haven't done enough damage to totally ruin things for yourself, so I'd think carefully before you respond any further.

    I do appreciate Craig's post and his level-headed approach to getting the facts out there, but it seems that fairly regularly someone shows up on the boards with a new and better way of doing things. Only problem is, the new and better way is usually built to suit the new and better member.
    This place has been around for years, and with few exceptions, it has chugged allong pretty well. Maybe you should look a little deeper (read: read more) before you start badmouthing members who have been here and helped build this board. The FOG's aren't perfect, and they still need to be held accountable, but probably not by a wet behind the ears newb who doesn't know shit about shit.

    It's really simple. If you like the web site then go thank someone that's been active here over time that help shape it. If you don't like the site and hows things work then why are you here at all?

    If you put enough of us on ignore you could have the site all to yourself.

    If you would have even bothered looking at the name of this forum - "Cigarsmokers.com: A cigar smokers community and discussion forum." this would have never happened. You probably had a wait period before you were allowed to post. This was put in place, in part, to allow you time to familiarize yourself with this community; who we are, what the "vibe" is here, and how you think you best fit into this community. You obviously read nothing, and only care about pandering your own cigar smoking interests, pummeling us with unsolicited video review after video review. While you do engage in conversation in other threads, did you not find it odd that no one comments on your reviews? That's being nice. You can't expect to waltz in here and expect us to openly welcome everyone the way they expect to. You are joining a community.

    And, as far as ignoring Ashauler, you might as well ignore us all. It looks like you're leaving anyway, but he's a longstanding member here, with much input and activity in the various activities of the board. You had the chance to learn about us, you probably still have the chance to participate (if you could pull your head from your ass for a moment), but instead you just attach your own agenda and force it upon us. We didn't bait you - you kept shoving yourself in front of our face, not taking the time to familiarize yourself with our community, as if you are doing us the favor.

    Stop acting like a martyr. You brought this upon yourself.

    Wow. And only 25 "cigar X review is up over on my site" posts later. craig opened this thread going way beyond the call of duty outlining some principles for you that are usually left for the newb to figure out for him or herself. And you thumb your nose at that and condescendingly start backing toward the door. And after offering a thinly disguised criticism of how this place is run. Sometimes I think "not getting it" is intentional; a manifestation of an ego that just cannot tolerate to be seen as anything less than perfect.

    Where's that kalara ignore line?

    Kinda reminds me of a guy I once saw at a local sandwich shop. He sets up a small amplifier, and begins to play his guitar. No one paid any attention to him - and it seemed to me the restaurant was unusually empty. I personally thought his music was quite annoying, but gave him props for at least trying. When it was clear that his tip jar was no fuller than when he came in, the guy pulled his amp and went on his way...

    I often wondered if the guy realized he was truly not as gifted as he thought he was - or was it that he just kept plugging away in the hopes of picking up a dollar or two from people that felt sorry for him.

    Either say - I did not see this guy playing at any kind of credible venue...

    Well, I tried nice and logical. For the moment, it doesn't appear to have worked . I guess that I should have named the thread differently - I can only rename the post now.
