I am currently a member of about 5 cigar boards. I have only been smoking cigars for about 6 months. The board ltc was the second board I join. I was there all of a week before the shit hit the fan that first time and I was locked out for a solid week, while they decided who they wanted to let back in. I consider myself as lucky to have been allowed to join the new board before it died and it switched back to what is going on over there now. Before it died we were getting alot of new members every week by referral or by invitation.

These guy's helped me alot in the beggining, I have never participated in a pass or spilt with anybody. I have seen them go around and people have problems and solve them like adults and I have seen them go around and people act like total jerks. I do not have time to waste on this stuff.

My take on this, We can all be a little arrogant at times just give each other some room to screwup and when they or you do, just accept it as that a screwup. Try to act like an adult, stop jabbing at each other to keep it going, If one person would take it upon theirself not to reply it will end.

I posted a thread along these line over at ltc after the first lock out. I am sorry, I do not know what caused the lockout of any of these people, I may have liked a few of them. I do know that there were some pretty pissed off people over at ltc and we asked them all to let it go. When they did we had some real good threads amoung ourselves, no arguing, no bickering, Just some good jokes and fun and interesting cigars facts and reviews.

Thanks for your patience while I rambled.
