Now my question to all of you that have been in trades with him is this. Did he send crap or damaged sticks?(I think this is a no.) Was he late on his end?(I think this is a no.) Did he not communicate during the trades?(I think this is a no.) Did he follow the rules for the PotPass and PIF?(I think this is a yes.)




Do I believe this should have been pointed out to him yes. Does he deserve to be watched some yes. NOW IF I WAS HIM I WOULD STAY QUIET ON THIS AND JUST MAKE SURE THAT I'M MORE CAREFULL IN THE FUTURE! I think his newbeness is showing and he needs to slow down a bit and take stock of what he is doing. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement and go over board and then , but he can recover as meltdown mood hasn't been reached yet.


Also all have to remember that if you want to post in the wishlist thread you should be looking to see if you could make anyone elses wishes come true.


DG
I agree with DG on this. While I haven't been involved in this (until now), I think that before he gets full-on soddomised, we should consider his previous trade history. If DG is right on it, and he has been a contributing member of this board (which I believe he has) then we should take DG's advice on this. When I first started getting into cigars and BB's, the lure of ISOM's, esp. when all the FOG's were slinging them around like Bud Light at a bar was great. I think we should forgive him for his newbie-ness, though that does not mean I think he should be completely off the hook. I agree with DG on keeping an eye on him as anyone would to a new guy in their circle of friends who just did something against the grain. I don’t think that he needs to go the way of some of our more famous newbies though, and I don’t think this qualifies him for ass-hat status either.
