Let's just reiterate that the guy who set this shitstorm off, Joey, isn't a newbie. He's been a member for more than a year and has more than 2000 posts. Just sayin that you'd be well served to remember that the issues are few and far between here and the most recent one involves someone who isn't new to the forums. So don't go too far overboard fixing something that ain't that broke.
Just remember, 1 user in particular always stood up for said bad apple, regarding the whole "for the troops" cigars issue. Just keep that in mind, maybe you now have 2 people to be wary of.
We all know this is a public forum and for the most part there are some pretty cools people on here..From time to time somebody will chime in to say something negative about ccom and what not and we usually jump on them to defend cigar.com and our forum (since this forum is for us). I feel if you are going to start a thread or make a post but please stand behind it. Positive or negative post just please stand behind what you posted. If you read your thread or your post and have to second guess yourself then dont hit the post button. If you rather handle things through PM then by all means handle your business that way. I say if it gets posted and its not anything that ccom HAS to take down then it should stay there. We are all grown ups if you have something to say that you want everyone to read then here is the place to do it, if you dont want it to be read or commented on then please dont post it. Just my thoughts and I am not second guessing this one so I will go ahead and hit the post button now!
Not pussyfooting around anything, or saying anything about you in particular. It was just mentioned...again...about the cigars for the troops and the "shadiness" of it all lets say. You defended the man, and I hope that was a fair and accurate defense. However, it seems (and most of this is thru PM contrary to popular belief) one or two or even 5 of us have not had strictly isolated incidents or reason to question the honesty of a paritcular member.

I have only done a couple of trades and been the recipient of some awesome BOTL generosity and have never had a bad experience. The only cigars for troops I participated in was totally legit with pics and thanks from the guys. Whatever you guys set up is alright with me.
Ok so i took the inciative to start the 3 threads i suggested. lets see if its something thats needed and works if not then as a few BOTL said it was not needed and these are few and far between.
