As president of the LOD fan club I resemble that remark about the Slimboli Effect - but I'm very pleased you were able to put into words what we all feel in our heart - the immortal and transcendental "Slimboli Effect"... it's bigger than us all....

IMHO,Slim is a long time member of this board who has helped shape this board to what it is now.There has been alot of "flaming" on this board lately and i think alot of slapping needs to be done.If you don't like the way that Slim reacts,then..........

"Don't go away mad.........just go away...."

There are many of you whom I respect that found this post to be juvenile at best. Well I must admit I can hardly blame you. My intent was essentially rhetorical in nature. I was certain of most of your answers before I asked the questions. I had hoped to show the few naysayers where the people here stand.

Well, whether it matters to many of you or not, I feel my purpose has been served. It seems obvious that most of us here have much respect for Slim.

One of my first posts on this board was respectfully "slapped" down by Slim. Since I hadn't taken the time to learn the rules, I had to learn the hard way. Within a week or so, Slim kindly took some of his time to help me with some questions and, thanks partly to him, I quickly grew a fondness for this forum and many of the people on it.

For anyone who cares, here is my post that prompted Ken (ky70) to request a poll...

"Well seniority counts in most of life. Slim seems to truly care about this site and most of the people on it. He does know quite a bit about cigars and in regards to people like you, most of us are in agreement. I think if that were not the case, if you could garner enough support, I think Slim would take a back seat for the good of the majority.

Keep up the good work, Slim."

Well, sorry if I offended anyone's intelligence regarding Slim. I had a feeling this post poll might be received in this manner and quite frankly, you played right into my hands (Rick, SteveS etc.) I'm glad that he himself understands the motivation behind this post.

For those of you that missed it, Slim's support is so strong that a poll was deemed unnecessary.

Good day.

My two cents is that Slim definitely knows a lot about cigars, he definitely has strong opinions which are usually right. He sometimes could use more tact in expressing his opinions. I defy anyone to argue any one of these points. And oh, btw, he is a BOTL. and p.s., this description could fit well for many other posters here. Slim is just an easy target because he’s vocal.

It was not inferred it was implied, you infer something when you here it when it is put out to somebody it is implied.

Guys,

I may be missing something here, but I think some things are being misunderstood/misrepresented:

1) That I have an axe to grind for Slim - I was simply responding to a thread that someone else created and I thought it was poking fun at Slim which I admittedly have taken part in

2) That I am the architect of this - As I said, I was responding to a thread and in particular a comment that the majority of the people here are in favor of Slim's contributions to the forums. I was playing "Devil's advocate" in stating that how do we know that the majority are in favor unless an actual poll was taken.

3) I ask that you read the original post (entitled "Slim Boli" in the Cigars related forum) to add context to this conversation. Please read the thread from start to finish. Also, please read comments from my post earlier in this thread. I do stand by my words and no malice was intended.

Lastly, I apologize to you Slim. The fact that malice was unintended on my part is irrelevant if you feel "injured" by recent conversations. For contributing to a situation that you are not at ease, I sincerely apologize.

Best regards,

Ken

What choner said, and even more succinctly, what jjohnson28 said. And what merlin9052 is worth repeating. Finally, I believe the comments which most accurately reflect my sentiments were made by the good Dr. Maddvibe…

ky70 said this --- I apologize if this deemed as a bit much, but with all the dishing out that Slim gives, I know he can take a little ribbing (as can I). ---

It is my honest opinion ky70 can take very little ribbing. For Petes Sake man, its a Cigar Smokers Forum!!

Cigsmoke, LMAO --- Now that was one offensive arshole. In fact I still think his real name is Mark Gabor.
