Cigar LIVE !!!!!!!!

**slcraiders** · 05-09-2007, 08:03 PM

I received an invite as did several people. I was not influenced to leave this board whatsoever and I have not left this board. I, along with a lot of others, belong to several boards. If I post more on one vs. another, it means nothing other than the subjects at hand have something for me to add to at a particular time. CL is new, therefore the sky is the limit as far as what can be posted without it being old news or existing in the archives of the search function. Also, with it being new, time will tell how well it does and the general membership atmosphere. It is touted as being BS free, but that is impossible. Moderatation seems to be of issue over there and I am not impressed with some of what I am seeing. Anyway, people should feel free to belong to several boards and roam them at their own will. So Dan to answer your questions: No and No.

James invited me. So I went. So far, seems cool.

Wrong.

I signed up there a while back after hearing about it on a couple of podcasts. I think 95% of my posts are welcomes to new members. Much like cigarpass, cigarlive is a little too busy for me to keep up with all that is going on. I'm curious how the moderators will shape that forum. I have seen a lot of the members here joining that board. IMO, that in itself says something about the way people feel about CS right now. I assume folks are a little tired of the temper tantrums and hissy fits that have plagued CS lately. There has been a lot of drama here recently but it will pass as it always does. When there is a lot of drama going on I usually don't post much, mainly because of the lack of cigar content. I still consider this my home board, and don't plan on going anywhere.

I had 2 invites, and signed up. I haven't had much of a chance to spend much time there yet. Between 3 cigar boards, 2 pipe boards, 2 shaving boards, work, golf, motorcycling, yard work, teaching on weekends, etc I'm friggin' surprised I find time to smoke!!!!

I echo much of what James, Dan and Guado said, not all, but much of it.

Dan, I tried to say similar things in a different way in a thread I started. Obviously that bombed horribly, so all I can say is:

<<INCOMING>>

shaving boards?

**ReV** · 05-10-2007, 12:09 AM

i joined the other site... boom invited me... big fucking deal... since when do i have to pledge allegiance to one board or the other?... CS is great and a little drama between other members completely not related to me isn't going to make me stop posting somewhere... everyone is too caught up on 'who's starting what'...

I never said anyone did... its just that everyone seems to be acting like you do... Just making a statement that i will be active on that board and I will remain active on this one. I like them both.

Instead of topics like "cello on or cello off" they must have "Electric or disposable razor" and subjects like "Best place to buy shaving cream."

BLASPHEMER!!!!!!!!!

Those words are akin to "Grape White Owls" and "Acid Kuba Kuba" if you'd like to compare the subjects and thoughts between sites.

This board seems to attract folks who like unmoderated discussion. As for me, I am a member at ClubStogie and here. While the heavy moderation at CS bothers me sometimes, the people I have met make it worth staying.

And while the unmoderated nature of this forum is bothersome at times, as it lets asshats and trolls run amuck, I still get much from being here, and have met great people, so that makes it worth staying.

Any unmoderated board is going to have a higher rate of shit-slinging, as there is no moderator to step in and insta-ban someone if they get out of line. Instead, if someone comes on and starts to piss members off, they will get it from multiple directions. That's the nature of an umoderated board.

I already belong to one moderated board, and that's enough for me. So i doubt I would join Cigar Live. When moderated boards start banning the word porn, locking threads down left and right, deleting threads, and get all G-rated on us by telling us we can't have anything that would upset a churchmouse, that starts to gall me.

Did ya notice how sid is going after me on a board where I've been banned and I cannot defend myself? (Not that I give a crap but I know some of you HP guys do).

Please take note that I am no longer engaging in that on HP since you brought it up.

Thanks!

No, I didn't notice. I assume you are referring to Cigar Live, which I had never heard of before reading this thread. Maybe I'll go check it out. Maybe not.

I just wanted to let you know that I'm honoring your request over on HP.
