You are still trying to blame others. I am not going to argue with you.

Th title of this thread is "CoventryCat86".

I said my peace I will not get drawn into another lengthy debate with you.

I apologize for my behavior in this situation once again.

LMAO, you make a stupid comment and immediately follow it with "I'm not going to argue with you."

I'm not trying to "blame others" lab, I'm simply pointing out that particularly in your case, you are probably more guilty of flaming and starting trouble than I am.

And once again, you did it in the post that I just quoted. If you can't see that you aren't exactly as pure as the driven snow, then you're not being very objective here.

"I am labmonkey, I am never wrong, CoventryCat is starting ALL the trouble here and I never do that."

To me, this seems to be your position lab, am I wrong?

I think this has been the fourth or fifth apology - I lost count.

What is that saying?? "It's better to apologize than to ask for permission..."

It seems to me if you were truly "sorry", as you say, you would stop your nonsense....

That is the point of this thread...to stop all this nonsense.

But as I said earlier....this is a two way street.

I am admitting my part of it.

I agree, I'm going to take the forum offline and convert the domain into a cigar auction site... screw you guys I'm cashing out...

(I'm obviously joking)

I admit it; I probably jumped the gun in posting this thread in the matter in which I did it. I apologize for the way I handled it. I'm not a morning person, and as mentioned before I'm new to the forum admin game. Several PM's in my box made me jump the gun a bit. But it’s posted and here to stay. Let’s get something out of it.

CC you have to understand that this has been a relatively peaceful community since we started. Reading over some of the threads and looking a bit closer I do see where you are not the only instigator here. I see 2 separate factions developing where there don’t need to be any at all. We are all BOTL’s here.

I'm going to ask this again. How can we all get to common ground and get passed this? Every time a new guy comes around that doesn’t see eye to eye with someone else here I would like to think its not going to turn into flame war 2k5.

awww....c'mon hex...I always wanted to be in a faction.....it sounds so coool

I am happy to see this being talked out.

As for the future . . . I appreciate the apologies for past transgressions and hope that all will be well. I also appreciate the warnings of questionable behavior in other forums by members. As a member of this site I think we all owe a duty to each other to watch the back of our fellow members. However, a single warning or discrete PM will suffice. Constant badgering and public ridicule is very difficult to swallow and makes for a very unpleasant site.

CCat . . . I have really enjoyed reading some of your opinions on cigar related matters. As it was said previously, it is obvious that you are a veteran BOTL and know your stuff. Your knowledge and opinions are an asset to the community. Additionally, your previous dealings, good and bad, with others on other sites should be a big help here too. Looking out for us here is appreciated but in the end let us, individually, decide who to and who not to trust. Take my advice from the previous paragraph and I think we can all get back to relaxing with a good smoke. I look forward to discussing cigars with you and maybe some day a bunch of us can get together and burn a few.

If everything ends soon I will be very happy. If new issues arise, as I am sure they will, I look forward to brief, mature discussions to resolve those matters.

Hex . . . although you said you think you handled it poorly don't be too hard on yourself. It was, and I hope I am correct in placing it in the past tense, a very difficult situation. Hopefully you will not have to resort to any more drastic measures to ensure the harmony and success of the board.

ps I am really looking forward to the second box pass and have been lining up a few smokes (puts and freebies) for my turn in the pass.
