Allright, I'll tune the transponder off of 7500 for a minute here Shelby07.

I'm glad you decided to stick around. You seem like a stand-up guy who has a lot to contribute to this BB. I think that once you get a feel for the members on here and see how many asshats come and go each month, you'll realize why Pguy got the responses that he did. I'm not a big fan of name calling and neverending flaming either so I normally will stay out of it.

I come here to learn and talk about cigars. I personally can't stand to see a 5 or 6 page thread bashing some asshat and then only see 2 or 3 replies to a legitimate question regarding cigars. You'll soon see however that we have to be suspsicious of new members at times in order to protect the small chunk of cyber space that we have. The occasional flogging is a neccesary to keep things in order.

I don't believe you have to "walk on eggshells" around the FOG's either. Just be yourself and show respect for the guys that help build and contribute to this forum.

Good thread, it shows a lot of maturity and class to handle it this way.
