I've had just about all I can take of E-Chick at the Cigarbid forums. I can't believe how all the newer folks here are stepping all over their d**ks trying to play her little game ... but I'm not buying into it.



I don't know if I'm the only 'long standing member' that's noticed it, but she comes waltzing back after being gone for a year or so ... and goes on acting like this is her private little forum, and we're all members of her little fan club. And most of the guy's here are going for it like a 'crotch sniffing dogs' ...



Almost every post is 'thread-jacked' by her and twisted into some sort of sexual innuendo, she loves to tell people what to do ... and the idle threats??? I've kept my mouth shut all this time, but I'm sorry, I'm really starting to get annoyed. Every serious thread eventually turns into some 'goofy blonde chick' babble, ... and it's really bringing down the whole cigar ambiance ...



Am I wrong? She knows very little about cigars and has admittedly tried very few. Honestly, I don't mind here being here, if she would get serious about what these forums stand for, and stop trying to make every thing be 'about her'. Sure, we are also here to have fun, but I get the feeling that she just uses this venue to bend the conversations her way to get people talking about her.

I know this will probably end up starting an all out flame war against me ... but believe me, I'm not the only one that feels this way. I'm just the one who seems to let my true feelings show, and am not afraid to publically vocalize them. Believe me ... there is no love lost between E-Chick and myself. We went though this when she first came to Cigarbid, over a year ago ... and she should have expected it.

I'm hoping she gets tired of it soon!

BTW ... everyone have a great 4th of July celebration, and be safe. I won't be around for the next 4 days (leaving in a few minutes), as the wife and I are going up to spend it in the mountains at Lake Tahoe.

Tonight they're going to have their 'Lights Over the Lake', the largest synchronized fireworks extravaganza west of the Mississippi.

Everyone have a great time ... you too E-Chick!

Slimboli, Lake Tahoe is one of the most beautiful places on earth, not counting some of the California side to the south. I used to have a condo on the Nevada side and go there several times a year. Wish I were going to be there to see that display tonite. Don't forget to take some good gars. Enjoy!

P.S. What June Cleaver said to Ward Cleaver: "Don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver?"

There is seldom very much new to say about gars except opinions and where to buy etc when a good new one comes on the market. I laugh outloud at stuff on this and the big BB every day. When I first showed up here a few months ago, March I think, not much at all was being posted. You can never really know on the internet whether you are talking to an old lady or a teenage boy with pimples anyway. I never believed LGCGirl was posted by the girl in the photo, espcially after "she" said Catch 22 was one of her favorite books, but it is impossible to know for sure. So I just go for the flow, throw in a smartass comment once in a while even tho I may be the only one amused by it, and occasionally may post something that someone somewhere may find useful. What else is there to do. E-Chick has always posted as if she had a crush on you.

Excuse me. Don't have time to edit this. The Soggy Bottom Boys are singin Man of Constant Sorrow. Gotta go.

Here we go......Actually, I kind of agree with Slim! If you've seen and heard one dumb blonde, you've seen and heard them all! Just kidding E-Chick! We have to soothe Slim when he gets in these moods! Just kidding Slim....Uh!Oh!...It seems that I have dug a hole for myself by replying to this post that I might not be able to get out of! Have a Happy Fourth! John

WAAHHHHHH! Like I'm SO offended Slim! I have and do ask questions here regarding 'the leaf' as you put it and have learned quite a bit. If every single person here only wants to post technical, mechanical messages about cigars and related, then how boring would THAT be? Let's see how many past and future posts of yours that are only pertaining to 'cigar ambiance' whatever the hell that means. Nice tortoise picture, btw.



I always thought cigar smokers were into bs-ing about politics, sports, family, off color jokes and the like...I didn't realize this board was only for a bunch of boring, nerdy little engineers wanting to dissect each and every little aspect of cigars from the construction of a it to the 'wet or not' ends!



Because you and several others are sick of me and my inuendos, doesn't mean I'll stick my tail between my legs and run away...I like it here and look forward to everyone's posts whether they end up as you put it or not, "they're Almost every post is 'thread-jacked' by her and twisted into some sort of sexual innuendo, she loves to tell people what to do ... and the idle threats???"



I love to tell people what to do? Sounds like you've read a bit too much into my posts and/or have issues with something or someone that resembles an authority figure to you...not quite sure what you mean by that one!



Idle threats? What exactly do you meanby that too? If, by making jokes as most others here do, you perceive anything I say as an ACTUAL threat...dude, get over it! And Slimboli, I can assure you that I am not one who "uses this venue to bend the conversations her way to get people talking about her." Please. If that's the case, everyone else is guilty too...I'm free to respond to any post just as all are free to respond or not to mine.


As far as waltzing back in here...I pretty much stayed off of the internet for the better part of that year unless it was business or research...nice of you to keep track of my whereabouts like that, Slimboli. Is that stalking? I bet Cigar Bid is happy to have you as their spokesperson as to whom is and isn't 'welcome' here since you are the one to be able to let your true feelings show, and are not afraid to publically vocalize them. Are you on the official payroll? Just wondering...



I like zingers, one liners, and sexual inuendos. You've pointed out to me that you do not. You've also stated that sure, we are also here to have fun. I don't want ANY part of YOUR fun as history here has shown me that you are not the least bit funny to me. To each his own, this isn't my forum OR Slimboli's forum so you can kiss off...



The best way for you to handle me Slimboli (and believe me, the likes of you would never be able to handle me! Feel free to answer with some lame line.), is not to handle me at all...and that goes for any one else sick of me too. Ignore me, my posts, my sexual inuendos, my humor and wit, my questions, and all of my other "goofy blonde chick babble" that is bringing YOUR cigar ambiance down. BTW, you should stay off of the Picture Post boards...there's an awful lot of sexual type pics there that I feel will be extremely offensive to you...also, too many of the posts have stupid old male dark hairy ass humor...oh wait, that applies, never mind!

You have a wonderful 4th too. Thanks for thinking of me! And don't forget...It's ALL about me!

Oh how I love a cat fight.....How dare anyone enter Slimboners world..Its just not right. You should know that he was here first and is the moderator of the board.
In his own head..
Once again, why is this so important to him? Is there something missing from his life? Such an obsessive compulsive!Just my opinion! Sorry

E-Chick, its not all about you and you dont seem to realize that. Say what you want, there are 5 billion other women in the world.



You are on a forum predominantly looked at by men. If I went to a forum where it was predominantly read by women, I'm sure that I would be swarmed on. Believe me, say what you want, I dont lack in the looks department. I dont lack with friends either. Im content with my own life and I'm content with my looks and attitude. I have a great career and social life.



I dont have to sit here and have people praise me or give me attention all day. I get enough from my beautiful girlfriend who doesnt need praise all day either. Say all the crap you want about that too because she has modeled for CK, Guess and Abercrombie. You cant say a damn thing about me because I will beat you in every friggin department.



I dont brag about myself or ever say to someone that "it's all about me", because that shows a level of 4 year old attention need. To say that just brought you down about 100 notches in everyone heres' book and if you think I'm wrong you better check what reality your from. I have to do that now I guess in order to make you realize that there are others out there in the world who are bigger, better and faster. Do you like people that sit there and talk about themselves in such conceit? I doubt it. it's disgusting dont you think? If you do then maybe you should go to their forum. I know you're going to try and comeback with some "you cant handle a woman like me" crap. Believe me, I've had one nighters with better looking and more personable. And they were good one nighters at that. Ive never had a complaint. I can see where someone like you would go with this conversation before it starts so let me end it here. You have never done anything to me except say "its ALL about me". Nope sweety, it isnt. Its ALL about EVERYONE here. Slim has gotten up my a*s for a few things that I dont agree with. This isnt one of them. You severely pissed me off by saying garbage in such conceit and need to be knocked down to the REAL level your on.

okay, I'm back...she just wanted to let me know a light was out in the bathroom. After reading through posts for the the last week or so, I got to say Slim has a point. I come here to trade cigar experiences with others who smoke and enjoy cigars. While many of the Forum's sans-female posts have slid down the slippery slope of easy, tasteless remarks, the recent co-ed chats need to go somewhere else. That shouldn't be hard on anyone. After all, this is the internet.

Personally, I don't care who posts here as long as they're polite. As long as you contribute to the overall good of the board, I say you are welcome.

Not enough time left in this world for negativity. On the same token, I'm glad this board is a place where we can all voice our opinions. Let's just not turn it into some OTHER cigar boards on the web with the elitism.

One request by me, let's keep the personal jabs at people out of the discussion. As I've said on various cigar BB's, that's best kept to emails.

Speaking for myself, when I first discovered CB, I ignored the forum for a long time, then began lurking and reading various posts ... I've come to notice that there are many personalities here, some strong in one way, some in others ... for me, the attraction of this forum is the diversity of opinion ... if there were too much homoginization, the board would be of little interest ... I LOVE the interaction of different personalities, different points of view, and different senses of humor ... I like to read (and respond to) posts by Slim AND e-Chick and all the others in the spectrum of those who comprise the company here ... at times, my opinions regarding cigars, politics and sports are different from some of the others, and at other times I am in agreement with them ... but most of all, I really LIKE the fact that personal attacks are absent ... until this one.

Hoping that my stating this opinion does not alienate those of you who are attacking e-, I will tell you that in my opinion, you are wrong in having done so ... I feel that e- and what she adds to this forum (and make no mistake, she DOES add to it)is a refreshing breeze and were she to follow the advise so freely offered above and go away, would be greatly missed, not only by myself, but by any number of others here ... that opinion applies equally to Slim, to Davy and any others who may share their points of view regarding e- ... I would sorely miss the input they offer as well, were they to go away ...

Rick, for example, has strong political opinions that are pretty much the polar opposite of my own, but I missed him greatly while he and his wife were vacationing recently and I was pleased to see him return and bring all of his freely spoken view back with him ... there are many, I'm sure who would not miss me were I to stop posting, but I can assure you, I would miss you, whomever you are and whatever your point of view might be, irrespective of the fact that I don't agree in full with ANY of you ... Slim, e-, and all the rest of you ... don't change a hair, OK? ... keep right on being YOU, because the diverse opinions here and the willingness to express them are exactly what makes this forum what it is ...

Oh, btw ... I USED to have quite dark hair even though Nature has seen fit to replace a great many of those with rather prematurely whitish ones, so if you disagree and think my statements to be babble, don't mistakenly believe they're "blond-babble" ...
