Hey Greg!!

Thanks for the post, it explains things very well.

I'm sorry I was part of making your life miserable again today but when freakin Puro posts that he doesn't "start crap" when he CLEARLY does, I just couldn't help myself..........

ClubStogie like every site has lots of great people.

CigarSmokers has taken off over the past four months and this is a pretty darn good place too.

The site owner hex1848, lets things "take care of themself" here BUT intervenes when necessary just as Rod (the site owner of CigarPass) does there as well. It makes for a slightly different dynamic than other sites, most people like it while a small minority don't and move on. That's fine too, ya can't please all of the people all of the time.

We have a lot of fun here, we do passes, PIFs, trades, etc. and we like to help new guys out when we can.

Please be sure to stop in when you have the chance

But atleast I have a chance at getting off. How in the hell is mooching cigars worth more than being a BOTL?

That would be www.letstalkcigars.com - which is a ghost town these days... But that's a WHOLE 'NOTHER STORY.....

Let's just say - The Island is the result of what over-modding, thread locking, post changing and deleting, will do for ya... And it just so happens, Moochie had a hand in that, although in all fairness, his side of the story is that others came in there and trashed the place - he was just trying to keep order...

OMG you've missed the greatest JOKE of a cigar board on the internet. I should really start a thread about the story of that place sometime so we can refer people to it.

Here's as short of a story as I can give you for now:

A 19 year old punk kid named Zac from California started a website called "LetsTalkCigars" in January of this year. He had essentially NO knowledge of cigars nor any clue as to how to run an on-line BB. Some guy named cigardave who was trying to sell his horrible Panamanian cigars offered Zac some free cigars and encouraged Zac to go to other sites and promote his site and Dave's cigars. And Zac, being the stupid, ignorant, suck-up punk that he is listened to him!

If you check back on this site, Zac puled the same crap (see member "LetsTalk") but since this site was very new and very slow at that time, his spamming went unnoticed.

So Zac posts as "LetsTalk" over on CigarPass bascialy spamming the site. A few people from CP (including Scotty and Puro) went over to say "WTF?", Zac LIED and said "LetsTalk is NOT me"

, Rod (the site owner of CigarPass) checked his IP address and confirmed that Zac was a liar then all hell broke loose. In the meantime, Scotty and Puro saw an opportunity to be "big shots" when Zac made them moderators which was a HUGE mistake since those two jerkoffs know NOTHING about how to moderate a site. They deleted posts, altered posts, locked threads, issued "strikes"

insulted people along with another so-called "mod" called Oblik. They were jealous of anyone who knew more about cigars than they did (which is just about everyone in the world) and they were nasty and abusive to good people and they protected assholes and known scum like SFG75, Oblik and larrynj. A known scammer, gamelover (you Club Stogie guys know ALL about him) showed up over on LTC and that brought people out of the woodwork from MANY other cigar sites (CR, HP, StogieChat, ClubStogie, CW, CF, cA, CigarSnobs etc.) over to LTC. The mods got WORSE and banned people. The "in" crowd over there were all losers like Zac, Corey, The Sultan, Scotty, larrynj, Oblik, Purobrat, etc. so we dubbed the place "The Island of the Misfit Toys."

It got so bad that in March, Zac made it an "invite only" site which was another in a string of his stupid moves. That lasted about a month until the server he was using blew up around the middle of April. So Zac made the site public again with the old format but at this point, there were very few people left and Zac has pulled a disappearing act and has not posted since early May. The place is now a free-for-all and the few people that had come back after it went public again have ALL left. The only two people left posting over there (other than trolls) are you guessed it, PuroBrat and SFG75.

Around the end of April, I heard that Oblik was over here so I signed up. Yep, I'll admit I came here to call him out for trading fake Cohibas and putting them in a pass over on the Island. Scotty shows up to defend his "bud" Oblik and I'll admit, I went nuts.

CigarSmokers was in its infancy back then and quite a few of the "regulars" (which was less than ten people at the time) had the natural reaction of "WTF? Oblik is "mod." so who are you to come here with your attitude?" Well LMFAO, sorry guys but Oblik was a scammer and people should know. Eventually we got Oblik to admit his "Cohibas" were indeed fakes, he posted an apology and agreed to make good on his bad trades. Well that was the LAST anyone ever heard of him until he was bragging to a guy at his local cigar shop in New Mexico about how he had scammed people on the internet

The stupid SOB didn't realize that other cigar board members patronize that same shop. What a freakin' IDIOT.

I know I said I was going to be brief but believe it or not, I actually was because there is so much more I could tell you (LTC chat stories, etc.).

The site is the laughing stock of on-line cigar BBs.

and Scotty and Purobrat were instrumental in making it what it is today.

A PILE OF $HIT!!!

**cigarsarge** · 09-02-2005, 02:55 PM

Brother Asslik..I mean Oblik also stole an Opus X Robusto from a pass Scotty had at the "Island". Kinda ironic isn't it.

**IHT** · 09-02-2005, 05:19 PM

lol... i had/have an account at letstalk... i think i signed up in late Jan of this year, posted a couple times, and a month ago i went back to see if anyone replied, and i guess all the topics i was replying in were deleted/locked... i couldn't find any of my posts at all.

at least i now know what the "island" is.

**ggiese** · 09-02-2005, 05:29 PM

Greg -

All your posts on the "Island" are gone because the server blew up in May (you can read about it in one of Zac's last posts "Shit really hit the fan!") - which is really a shame because all of SFG75's, PuroBrat's, Oblik's, Corey's, Larrynj's, Zac's, etc. posts at that site are all gone - lost to the wind... All of the great additional proof that those guys were the bane of the online community went to the digital heaven...

The only thing that remains clear is that because of those guys actions, the "Island" is no longer a vibrant community. But, again, if you talk to any of those guys you'll get the story that it was all the guys from Stogie Chat and Cigar Pass that came over and ruined the board.

Seems PB is pissing off some more folks...

I'm waiting....

I dunno. Anyone that'd spend that kinda money on Levitra for a goddamn frog is suspect.

Seriously, threads on PB is some of most entertaining stuff on the net. What's wild is that he keeps coming back for more. da guy's missin' some filler.

i don't know, man. from the pictures i've seen of the guy, it looks like he's got plenty of filler.

**QuietC** · 09-08-2005, 08:53 PM

He's full of something, but it isn't filler

Moochie the Clown's explanation of making the scumbag list...

well, since I have never ever attempted to do anything underhanded, and Nobody who has ever traded with me has ever had reason to complain, but yet I am on this list with this explaination:
Quote:
Widely acknowledged as the biggest mooch of the online cigar community. PNG at CigarPass.

I cannot comment on the validity of such a list. Notice that All the Mods and Admins of CigarWeekly have been added to the list. For what? Allowing some of the people on the list to remain Members?

You guys all have to decide for yourself, But I have traded with 2 or three of the people ON that list and they were wonderful trades, very fair. And I would trade with those people again, long before I would trade with a number of people who are NOT on the list.

But what do I know, I am Widely acknowledged as the biggest mooch of the online cigar community.

BTW - his mooching is paying off at ClubStogie - he just received a nice bomb... Bet me he doesn't reciprocate!!! EVER

**Dickson** · 04-09-2006, 03:50 PM

Thanks for posting that. Shouldn't that list be stickied(If that's even a word???) on this site. Sure would help us newbie's not get stuck.

**drew_goring** · 04-09-2006, 04:00 PM

For some reason I don't think you will have to worry about ol' puromooch around here

George...He did say when he won the Texas lottery he would pay back everyone.

**kevin7** · 04-09-2006, 04:51 PM

looks like the whole board full of rejects is rallying around puroturd . Seangar is giving some poor newbie named woody a fit though. I didn't know mods could just flame away at will at newbies. What a bunch of fucktards

**Dickson** · 04-09-2006, 05:13 PM

This being my first and at this point only cigar site. I would hope, I don't deal with the likes of him. Everyone here has been very helpful and beyond generous.
