Jumping to conclusions really is not helping. Can we discuss this thread now?
If I know what I know after only being back for about 6 days then it's become too public. Lets read what we write from now on before hitting that post button. You have made your feelings very public concerning your actions in previous passes. These were feelings based on actions you seem to have taken out of your own free will and therefore it's not my duty to feel bad for you. You are getting negative attention from the people here because you are acting this way. And to point out that I do not know you is a cry for attention. I know I don't know you, you know I don't you. I was stating my thoughts based on the evidence I have been given. I have jumped to no conclusions, rather simply called out what I see as an attempt to make others feel in the wrong.
You have missed almost a year here and have been back 6 days. You have missed a bit. If you want to send me a PM go ahead.
Being a noob...and seeing the drama....I'll stick to dealing with the kind gentlemen I have interacted with so far. Two of them have offered to send me sticks for free, which is downright amazing. I'll stay out of the bicker, and trade and bomb with the guys who go out of their way to make me feel welcome.

Don't feel discouraged by anyone's comments here about trades or passes. Plenty of the people bickering on this thread have send out great bombs to noobs and are more than happy to help someone get started and to encourage being a part of the community. I know I have sent out about 10-12 noob bombs and I get the most satisfaction out of that versus trading premium cigars and I am sure most other brothers would feel the same way.
The only issue I have with passes is the massive amount of postage we all pay to get these passes through the list. I think we are keeping the USPS in business. HA!
I've always avoided passes because there are too many variables that I can't control, and it seems like the potential for hurt feelings and drama is much higher than with a one to one transaction. I think I will continue to avoid them.

There you go.. "Back in the Day" we just sent out a package one on one, sent a bomb, or contest winning package. Now, these passes may have been started with good intentions, but there are way too many ways for this to go wrong. THERE IS NO GOOD PASS. Check the track record of passes, they are the second most likely cause of insulted members only to the political forum. I dropped out of two because of bullshitt, I won't take part of any pass. That is my thought on passes.
I have enjoyed every pass I have been in. Either because it gives me an opportunity to bomb someone with the included package or because I find smokes that are new to me. But I have also seen the trade out of cheap sticks for premium sticks as well. I'll still always want to be included in the passes if there is ever another one that can go complaint free. I do like posting the takes and puts too. Reason being is yes there should be some kind of judging because if there is no way of tracking what has been taken then who knows who is subbing crap for diamonds. Thats my two cents. Oh I have also never felt jaded so dont quote me on this statement lol!
