Apparently, there are some people who just don't seem to get it ... and probably never will ... but such is life. It's all good ... and everyone has a right to say how they feel about something. And, I am probably one of the least stressed people on these forums right now ...
All you 'old timers' have heard me harp on this for years ... but the newer folks may be interested in 'one man's opinion' ... and can take it or leave it.
Please understand, that the point I was trying to make doesn't go anywhere near the extreme that Marla likes to portray ...
... maintaining a little structure and dignity to this place (is that asking too much?) only insures that the CigarBid forums will always rank at the top of the 'BB world', as far as the 'class of people' who come here (and stay) ... and only secures the good reputation of these forums, and will also helm maintain the respect that it has earned over the years ...
If you think about it, all that posting on the appropriate boards does ... is help people out. Some folks are very busy, and only have time to view certain boards at certain times of the day. In doing this, you are making it easier for them, as they go to the board they are interested in, to see the threads they want to read. Without it, they may have to search all the boards to find it ... so you are only doing your fellow readers a service.
... and also, the threads that interest YOU will be easier to find.
These forums here are NOT just another 'message board', as far as myself, and many others have come to understand ... it's more like a home away from home, and we are all part of one big 'cigar smoking' family.
... it's a place where we can all feel comfortable ... IMHO ... and the more comfortable we all can help to make it, the better it's going to be ...
It's just how I feel about it ... and I guarantee you, that just bugs some people to no end ... ;^)
I've said all I can ... any any more would just make it more redundant than it has already become ...
