Fubar69 ... first of all, you didn't mention any competing website, I just brought it to your attention that it is against the 'General Guidlines' set up by Cigarbid, before you did ...

Second ... it was not to hurt your feelings, just bring it to your attention. some folks don't bother reading the rules of our host.

Third ... I don't like riding folks here, and I am usually careful (these days) not to step on peoples toes (some are very sensitive). Sorry if I offended you in any way ...

Slimboli, maybe I jumped a little too soon. Thanks for the pre-warning regarding "other sites". Now if I just had some pre-warning regarding the "subtle" humor of the rest of the gang....hum, it seems that they don't have "subtle" humor."go for the jugular" seems to be more their style. I LIKE IT!

"69"
p.s. Echick, you took the words right out of my mouth.

The guy is not advertising for any other sites! Did you ever hear of fair competition? What business did you ever hear of that didnt ever mention someother business' name? Do you ever hear car companies talk about each other or customers comparing vendors? Its not like he's saying "Hi, everyone, lets all go to ______ because they have a better deal!"!!!!!!! Can you tell the difference between advertising and promotion compated to a simple question of where the guy can find a few cigars if he can find em here? Plenty of times in my life, I have gone into a store and them not carry a product that I was looking for. Then right after they told me that they didnt have it, they told me which other vendor i could go to to get it. So in simple terms, you are wrong.

I don't know whether you realize this or not ... but mentioning competing sites at this formum is not only against the guidelines set up by our host, but is in extremely bad taste. It is simply not allowed here, and if it happens, those names or URL's are frequently XXX'ed out by Gonz.

This is their store, and we must abide by their rules. I personally can't see any problem with that ... as their are plenty of BB's on the web that do not sell products that you can exchange info untill your heart's content.

The webmaster is extremely busy, and doesn't have time to check every post. He has personally told me (or maybe it was Keith Meier) that he appreciated those here who keep things in line with their standards ... just because he doesn't have the time to do it.

... oh, I forgot one thing.

So in even simpler terms ... you are wrong. Period.

Slimboli, I double posted because the CB website just temporarily went down and it double posted on its own. Maybe you could find something else to do with your time rather than sitting where ever you are and criticizing people on a cigar forum. jeez....

What's your problem? I don't criticize people here, I just stated the facts.

You were the one who came in here spouting off about something you had no clue about ...

My problem is with someone who doesnt even work for the company, rattling their mouth off like you have some sort of authority or something. Please... In that other post you were saying how you showed restraint by not ripping that guy a new a**. Gee... you think you may have some insecurity complex or something? Try finding something better to do like wash your car or maybe doing laundry or something. All you do is look at posts and criticize people. You said yourself that you had so show restraint and not rip a guy because he posted comething about cuban cigars. Why dont you let the people who run the site do the policing and not get involved in everyones posts. I posted to help defend the guy a little. You have to comeback and get your 2 cents in. Seriously, get a job or something.

Show your age ... or maybe you are. Read my post a little closer, and maybe you will understand.

Worried about my policing this site? I've been here for a couple of years now ... and I feel like I know the folks who run this site quite well, and I consider them friends of mine. As I said before, they have personally told me that they appreciate someone who 'keeps an eye out' now and then, because they are sometime too busy to monitor all the posts. Besides, who made you 'defender' of the underdog? Everyone here is adult enough to speak for themselves if they feel thay have been wrongly confronted on an issue. The person who wrote the original post handled it quite well ... and in a mature manner. He got the message ...

Sometimes it takes a 'thick skin' to get involved in internet BB's. Nothing I posted here was said in malice ... so find someone else to stage your attacks on.
