Newb has been welcomed!

duckshooter · June 2012

Sooooo, a couple weeks ago I introduced myself on the newbie thread, then headed out of town on a trip. I get a PM from a dude named SleevePlz asking for my address since I dont have my addy public. He says he hasn't bombed a newb in a while. Now, I may have just signed up for the forum but I am a longtime lurker so I know a little about the bombs and I know enough to know there is no way my cheap ass collection in my humidor could ever repay a bomb. I told him no thanks for that reason but he insisted. I finally rolled into town today and got to see what he dropped on me as a Newb welcoming gift. I will have to figure out how to post pictures. Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic 1970? Cain Habano Nicaraguan San Miguel ChurchIll Arturo Fuentes Anejo Reserva Xtra Perdomo Reserve 10th Champagne E All I can say is WOW. Until now I didn't even have a $5 cigar in my collection, and I am amazed by these sticks. I know I cant repay him, I can only bow before him and say I'm not worthy. I think I will keep my address secret as my mailbox took a big hit and it probably cant handle another one. I know nothing in my humidor can.

Ok, how do you put spaces in a post so the cigars dont get buried?

Good to see you finally made it home, Brandon. Maybe you can actually start relaxing and enjoying the summer now. That is why we became teachers, right? Enjoy the cigars, you deserve them!

Getting a little sensitive as your month comes to an end? Since you are a nooooooob, perhaps I should bomb you as well? If I can bomb Darth Vader, I think I can bomb you!

jliu · June 2012

NO

Lee.mcglynn · June 2012

Welcome to the forum! Sleeveplz is a stand up guy! You got lucky that he Bombed you. But pm me your addy!!

duckshooter · June 2012

I'm just laughing at the pm my address part. I'm very tempted to but I'm nervous to for two reasons. My cheap humidor stocking that I have can in no way compete in the reindeer games played on this sight. The second reason was I just felt kind of guilty about getting cigars and not being able to return anything for them. SleevePlz explained that it is just something done on the forums and to consider it a welcome gift, but it still felt a little weird. I'm willing to give my address to any brothers who ask because the people are great on the sight but it just feels weird because I can't return the favors if you know what I mean?

SleevePlz · June 2012

If it is easier, I am willing to give out your address to anyone and everyone! Please don't ever feel guilty about the generosity/insanity of the people on this forum. We bomb newbs (and vets) for a reason and it has nothing to do with receiving anything in return. This literally is part of the culture of the cigar society. We like to help people get started, learn about different cigars, exchange thoughts, and just have fun. So, who needs an address?
