I must say,
As one of the FOGs that sent Lovelyred a newbie sampler, I did this without any knowlege that any Cleavage, would be involved. I saw a post, from someone who was new to cigars. I sent a sampler to that person, to help introduce her to some smokes that I have enjoyed over the years. She did not ask for them, as a matter of fact, I had to post several times to get her to email me, so I could send this package.
As many people know, I have been known to send out many of these unsolicited newbie samplers, over my 2 years on these boards. Just because I send cigars to someone, doesn't mean that I am after anything.
I used to frequent the newbie trade thread, but it felt too much like a trade. So now I choose my newbies, from all of them. I judge by the posts that they start, and post to. The intelligence of their questions, and their sense of humor. I will continue to send unsolicited newbie samplers, as long as I frequent these boards. I will not respond to mooch attempts, or moochers who belittle the target of any of my newbie samplers. At least from here on out.
Hmmmm
I guess I need to load another newbie sampler, and select another newbie target.
Later
