we're way too trigger happy....no question that this guy started badly...but let's give him a 30 day pass to see if he meets expectations...if not...he goes...i don't like what's happening here....

Agree... as a new guy here this whole thing kinda gets me feeling like I might have to walk on eggshells. I like the board and would hate to make a mistake and be kicked off. Let's see what happens.
It's not the fact that he made a mistake. Honestly, think about it. Your first post on the board is selling some very exclusive and expensive cigars. Then you go and insult the membership and don't offer any sort of apology or explaination??Originally Posted by Shelby07
There is a difference between trolling becoming a member. You don't have to 'walk on egg shells'.

I don't think that friends should have to worry about what they say to each other...so Shelby07, I think you're fine. I wouldn't worry about walking on eggshells if I were you.
On the other hand, I only offered some very good and expensive cigars for best offer. I came here only because I thought you guys would appreciate them at a place like this. There is a time and place for everything and I guess I learned that this isn't the place.
How many fucking times do I have to say sorry.
Can I change my handle and start over again? FUCK.
I can understand your POV BPP, but you're pretty much the only guy he's coddled up to.
Shelby - you didn't come into the forum and start mouthing off on your third post. PartyGas has not been treated differently in any other respect - from the perspective that he posted in the wrong area without permission.
PartyGas - honestly, you came in and innocently posted in the wrong forum without permission. And that's ok - you got some lumps, and that would have been it. You should have apologized - and then shut up for a couple days to let things cool off. The more you egg people, the more they will egg you. And the folks have here been longer and are more numerous.
You did not win brownie points with your third post comment:
followed by your fourth postOriginally Posted by PartyGas
And it went down hill from there.Originally Posted by PartyGas
You were warned and asked to apologize by Basil, CC, BigMac, BPP, me, Hex, BPP, Lopaka, BKC, (and that's up to post #60)...BPP @ #72....
You did not hint any remorse or apologize until (from what I see at) #153 but did it in a backhanded approach after the polling started:

The answer is just ONCE. Without backhanded slaps, will full humility, and no smart ass remarks.Originally Posted by PartyGas
BPP - I completely respect you as a FOG on the board - but I respectfully disagree that the board has jumped the gun - he's been given plenty of chances - and he chose the wrong fork in the road every time.
Look at that... I plumb got myself 5 raisins and 7 termites.
Hey 1101...I agree with you. The first 90% of my time here ended up being a clusterfuck...with me to blame. Believe me when I say that I did honestly try to apologize not long into my time here and something came across the wrong way and it backfired. Sometimes I forget that words on paper or words on a computer screen doesn't have a sound of sarcasm like a voice does. I have the same problem with a girlfriend of mine who lives in Pittsburgh...but that's for another time and another place...
Enjoy a good smoke this weekend and make it a great one!
With all due respect... imagine what might have happened if the reply to him was something different.
"PartagasGuy - thanks for letting us know about the cigars you have for sale. They are good ones.
We like to keep things a bit more compartmentalized here on this board. I've moved your thread to the appropriate forum. Take a look at the board policies that we have posted for your benefit.
Welcome to the board."
All I'm saying here is that it could have been handled differently on both sides, and I think the results would have been much different. As a new member I might be out of line, but as an old guy I like to believe I've learned a bit about tact... not always easily.

. If said apology ever arrives (many hours and counting) keep an eye out for 4 dudes on horses asking for directions to some kind of "seal"

You sir, are a liar. You haven't apologized one time. When you say you tried to - fuck that, trying is yet another lie. You either will or you won't.Originally Posted by PartagasGuy
You are a troll of the worst order and even if you do apologize, do not expect many here to welcome you.
Don't think that choosing to no longer respond to my posts has been lost on anyone. And don't think that ignoring the facts will make them go away.
Shelby, you don't have to walk on eggshells. What you do have to do is walk in the front door and bring respect to the table. Much like you have, and completely unlike this troll. Stick around and see - as much as this asshole would like others to believe, this isn't about picking on anyone. It's about preserving the integrity of the board. And yes, we do know each other. and we repect each other. And when a troll shows up, we show 'em the door.
Sid, with all due resepect, I cannot overstate how much I strongly disagree with you about this useless piece of shit. You're not pissed off. You're being pissed on and told it's raining. Just because he knows some of the same geography as you, does not mean he's not a useless fucking troll. Frankly, I'm surprised that you're still with this guy.

Drew -- I realize that, but I think if everyone backs down a bit the whole thing might be diffused, and you might even find that you like the guy. Yes, he's insulted some people, but he's also been slammed from every angle. Let's all just let it go. If we all tone down a bit we will see where he's coming from.
PartagasGuy - You gotta let it go on your end, too.
cool
i took a different direction and started discussing other stuff...seems fine...he seems to have tough skin and can toss it back...are we that thin-skinned...the guy is trying to fit in..let's let him....
You also can't seem to puctuate properly. It's tough to remember all that fourth grade stuff at your age, I guess, huh, gramps?Originally Posted by bigpoppapuff
And, you can't seem to spell ass-hat, so just take a hike. I also forgot, I learned the IQ insult from you, so here it goes...I can't tell which is smaller, your penis or your IQ, they're both below a 2.Originally Posted by carnivore
