    I'm all for adding a requirement to the rules and regulations that members be 18 +. This discussion has been beat to death all over the Internet. MySpace has the same problem (obviously different age prerequisite), but there is currently no real way to validate someone’s age – it’s based on the touch of a keypad and the click of a mouse.

    I think age is an appropriate thing to consider on this board. I was unaware that the legal smoking age in some states is 19. Is there a minimum age required for registering here? I can't remember.

    the legal age is 18 in most states...i really don't want to have interaction with someone who is 18 or possibly younger...instead of talking about cigars,the kids should be seeing if they might be able to go out with the hottest cheerleader....

    empire...have you sent cigars to anyone??....i have...and do on a fairly regular basis.....to infer that i can or cannot send cigars is pretty fucking stupid on your part....you proved to me with your post that you're an asshole.,..and cinda...no need to play house mother...it was uncalled for..

    it IS illegal to send cigars to someone under 18....i'd hate to be held responsible if a kids' parent(s) decided to take action against me...which could happen....better to make 21 the age for joining here....it gives us a little leeway....

    Well maybe then Hex should make a desicion on what age we should allow here or we can take a vote.

    When I send cigars to someone I will take the measures to ensure that im not sending cigars to someone who is underage, but to discriminate and say someone shouldnt be allowed on this board because of their age, then I think that is absurd.

    How would you like it if someone else here told you that YOU (any of you), could not be at the board because of their age? I dont think being on a board discussing tabacco is illegal in any state, no matter what your age. If it is, then there should be an age limit. Being on this board does not mean you are going to recieve tabacco products in any way.

    I was wondering if the postal service would take any action for using them in the comission of a crime....Sending tobacco products to minors.

    Good question. Hell- that would be a better use of law enforcement or government than in some cases I have seen.

    Get this: a kid was hauled out of my son's Jr. High school today by the West Jordan police dept. because he "stole" and drank a teacher's milkshake. I know it is not right but give me a break. There are far more serious crimes to attend to such as selling harmful substances to minors.

    Although it is illegal to send tobacco to minors and I agree that we should somehow make sure it doesn't happen on this board, I think they care to try and enforce it about as strictly as they enforce ISOM shipments to the states....

    You talked to me at 18...my school didn't have cheerleaders and I enjoy talking about cigars.

    As far as legal troubles, the last thing I would need is crap for sending someone cigars. I would prefer an age limit where I could remain here, as I haven't been a minor where I live for nearly two years. But whatever has to be done will be done.

    What you could do is when people first join here you have them post saying hello to every one but along with that they have to add a picture of them self. This way you would know if they are giving you the right DL if you trade with them later on. I’m 18 and I have to say that I had no idea that people traded and gave away cigars on forums. I joined because I want to learn all I can about cigars, which I would bet is why most people join. I don’t think that some that is underage is joining forums to try and get cigars, it just not worth it when they are so easy to get by other means. But on the off chance that you do get some one that is under 18 the responsibility falls to who ever is trading with them. There is no way this forum could be help responsible. It would e like if a 15 year old went and bought alcohol, the place that sold the alcohol is the one that would get the fine not the company that makes the alcohol. I hope that you don’t put an age limit on the forum. There is no law that says that you can’t talk about cigar. I love the fact that there is a place for some one like me to come and read and try to learn everything that I can about something that I really love. Since I have joined I know that it has made my love of cigars increase ten fold, from knowing what to buy or just enjoying the taste of a cigar more because I know what makes that cigar taste like that. If you feel that you need to increase the age limit to 21 to join I hope that you will do two things. One let people like me who have already joined stay even though we are not 21. Two realize that you will have the same problem with people saying that they are 21 when they are not
