Thanks, Slim. I had already read "help". You will find that there is no section on "How to pay" and no FAQ. I re-read the rules and found the operative word to be "may", which would lead one to believe that an intelligent human being would make a subjective determination as to the use and intent of "objectionable things". I did not have any malicious or slanderous intent in using a competitor's name. I didn't even use it in a comparative way. I only used it in describing how I arrived at the point where a newbie already has a 350 count humidor on its way within three weeks of deciding to join the BOTL (may God rest my soul after my wife sees it). Cigarbid is a major partner in my humidor! This is America. Free trade and free speech are good things....so are good manners. I respect them all and hopefully exercise them all. Of course, my wife would probably disagree with some of that, but hey, what's life without a little indulgence here and there (and variety)? Well, gotta go hide the shotguns.
