DMV was hammering that nail pretty hard when I joined...I sent a couple of local rolled smokes to SteveS, since I didn't know whether he liked natties or maddies...
I felt like such a FNG then (Nov 2011)...and because of some of the guys who have been here for so long and know much more about CBID history and occasionally post about some of the inside jokes and backstories, I still get that johnny-come-lately, new guy feeling...glad I got to know MACS, who has filled me in on some details and helped to get some of that noob smell offa me...
The biggest difference between now and how the CBid community was about 6 years ago when I joined is the absence of a whole lot of pot stirrers and in-your-face-noob kinda guys...only a few of those guys are still active while others have mellowed some, so the feeding frenzies on those occasions when red meat shows up are very rare anymore...still a lot of guys here who are generous with their knowledge and experience and opinions, about cigars and a whole lot more...makes this place worth hanging around...
