[Rob, The LI Cowboy]

Sorry Rob but LZ6 quoted Moheganson's post which sure meant he was pointing the finger right at him.

Who's "Bob"?

I think you're mistaken sir. From the way the quote is phrased on page 1 you would think that to be the case but it wasn't presented in its entirety as such. Just for the record here is the entirety of the post.

Let it GO! have you seen oblik or eluethardt participate
in any pass since this age old deal went to ground??
We understand and appreciated that warning when it came to us? What don't you get? You made the post and we took it for the deal it was. No need to run it a hundred times for Christ's sake.

But a word of warning here you have no business running Tfire down at your place, he is a good brother and has been through more shit in a nasty place than
you can imagine and does not deserve any shit from any of you! Leave it alone now. Just my 2p.

Regardless, thank you all for your time I wish you peace and a good stick. Please consider what I said. Thank you.

I respectfully disagree with your conclusion.

Watch Eric delete the whole thread now because that's the way he runs things He loses his temper, loses control of his emotions then thinks everything will be "okay" if he hides the evidence and deletes the thread!

Go ahead Eric, I've already saved all the "good stuff" here

Rob - there is no doubt few individuals on this or other cigar boards (including StogieChat) who have a history which would lead others to compassion if they were to know the circumstances. I applaud tfire for his service to this country - it is a strong sacrifice, no doubt. But I really don't appreciate anyone wearing that on their sleeve.

I know individuals who are embroiled in these discussions who's own personal past causes one to reflect on their sacrifices. Yet - tfire is the only one who is being defended in that regard.

I guess I'm most disturbed that he has chosen to make that information very public. Has made statements that he doesn't want the stress. Then he jumps in, with both feet, one of the most vocal - and then has other members saying, "Hey, leave the poor guy alone. He's got a lot of baggage..."

I've got some advice. If tfire is as concerned about his stress level as he claims - he needs to pull the reigns back a bit. His horse is out of control. And others defending his inflammatory posts is doing nothing more than adding fuel to that stress fire of his...
