    Yup, been asked for free cigars on here too. Seems common on this forum to ask new members for free cigars. I share with my friends, not to placate aggressive forum members.



    I noticed that. I caught on quick that you're a follower. Whatever the "gang of 6" here does, you jump on their bandwagon.



    See above. Opinions of others are learning tools. I don't "rely" on anything but my own taste buds. I enjoy comparing my findings with others, and often will find a different perspective after doing so.



    Seriously? You're threatening me?

    Seriously?



    If you're active online or read the industry rags you've most likely seen one already.



    Kind of all over the place there, buddy. When it comes to cigars, I am a consumer. I know nothing about becoming an importer or tobacco distributor other than there are numerously more (by an order of magnitude) federal regulations and state regulations imposed in an attempt to prevent you from selling tobacco of any kind. My business does not sell tobacco for that reason. I make it a practice not to offer advice about something I know very little of. That, my friend is called wisdom.

    As far as the system working well, I guess it does. At least for the 6 or 7 members that actively post here.



    I have this thing I do. It's called a life. I also have real friends, a business to take care of, and a family to spend time with. I don't spend all my free time on this earth online, and if I did it wouldn't be here.





    Tapatalk IS a liar. It's also a PIA when it keeps you logged in to a forum that is actually active, because it marks posts as read that you've never read, then you have to back and search to see what you missed. That doesn't seem to be a problem here



    See above







    The bolded quotes abovemake my point.

    Right now:

    I don't think it's completely miserable. Being the eternal optimist that I am, I see great hope here. I enjoy interaction with others, and enjoy comparing my own opinions with the opinions of others. Which is why having more members participating is a benefit to all. No cigar tastes the same to every person, and the insights brought about by fresh points of view are what broaden our horizons. The posts referenced above are typical of this forum. Average what? 6 users online, always the same 6 core users. I lurked for a good 6 months before actually signing up, then another 6 months or so before posting. I've seen what goes on, asked why and got blasted. The same thing happens when a newb comes along and asks a newb question. If the "gang of 6" thinks it was a stupid question then they blast the OP rather than educate him with the vast experience of other members. Most of the time that poster will go elsewhere, where members actually help each other.

    Jeesh what a douche. Spelling is not my strong suit. I do not think I have ever strong armed any person for cigars. I highly doubt I would want any of your cigars seeing that an Ashton is highly touted by you.

    I feel left out, he didn't quote my post and provide a response like he did with the rest of you jokers. I guess I'm not in the "gang of 6."

    He obviously doesn't do well with questions, wait, it's the honest answer part that fucks him up. Mr experienced reviewer/forum member.....that is not confident enough in his position to use his oh so well known handle.

    Yawn.

    Wait a minute... Last I checked, you were still in initiate status and not a full fledged gang member. You must be a part of the "gang of 6" to post to post in this thread?!?

    Oh - wait... Never mind... The "gang" leadership forgot to send me the updated "gang" list. You're on the new list. Congrats!

    Strange... There are more than 6 on my official "gang" list... How are we going to manage posting in this thread if there are more than 6?

    Edited to add:

    Ohhh... DOGGONE IT!!! I'm SO embarassed. For some strange reason I was moved off the official "gang" list and apparently am just a regular member now. My deepest apologies for posting in this thread without being in official "gang" status...

    I can't keep track of all the damn lists anymore. First it was the axis of dipshits, then the circle, now the gang of six......dammit. It's like a 10,000 bottles of beer song......

    Where's our "Young Jeezy" friend today?

    ...perhaps he's fryin' on acid...

    ...or maybe out "successfully" selling floor wax to someone.
