There are no "private circles" here. So don't try and play the victim.

Take a look at some of your previous threads. Being belligerent to others has not endeared you to folks. Yet, they still offer advice on how you might fit in. You would do well to listen to some of it.

You seemed to get decent participation in your other cigarette discussion. This topic seems similar enough that you could have easily updated your original thread instead of creating a new one. Now you have 2 threads with very similar topics on the first page of this forum, which isn't really necessary. I guess it comes across as poor 'netiquette', which can hurt your credibility with others.

The banter suggestion was good advice. Maybe start a banter thread or participate in some of the many existing ones?

I know us old gorillas can be grumpy sometimes, but what's with the aggronoobs poking the cages?

Kids these days. :-)

There is over 1,000 people that post regularly so its not as close a circle as you might think. We tend to like discussions so try starting threads with a topic followed by a question.

Example:

I love cigars and enjoy them as a hobby. Why is it that non smokers group cigars and cigarettes together? In my opinion one is a hobby and the other is a habit, what do you think?

You had a rough start but if you stick around and continue to participate I imagine you will fit in fine. Hell if they'll put up with me, they'll put up with anyone.

How in the HELL do U claim to LOVE CIGARS and NOT Read CIGAR AFICIONADO, are the words not small enough for you, HOW SAD.

And I mentioned my DIVORCE once or can't U READ

I wish I was as nice as Albert.

Because that magazine is the biggest joke.

Unfortunately, I think you're actually serious about Cigar Aficionado.

fit in to this group, please.

Wow, you're right. How can we love cigars if we don't read that pretentious, arrogant, snob magazine that caters to the 1% of cigar smokers that light their cigars with $100 dollar bills?

Its great and all that you like the magazine, but now you're questioning the members love for the hobby? Maybe this really isn't the right place for you. Cigar Aficionado has its own forum, go bother people over there.

OH, someone please tell me what other people visiting your PRIVATE chat room should write about, Please tell me. I have to know.

LOVE CIGARSMOKER2543,

If youn want to talk in private U can reach me at CIGAR@USA.COM

I have absolutely no idea what your last comment meant, are you leaving us? :-)

:-) :-) :-)

NO I will stay here, I will learn to be hated by U, I do lewarn quite a bit from this Forum, so I'm not going.

AGAIN, Tell me what I need to inquire or talk about so I'm part of your 6 Member PRIVATE CROWD.

Damnit Mikey! Now I gotta go out and get a friggin' subscription? :-)

Been there, done that. Don't waste your money. You can have mine.

But I don't want it!
But for some reason I'm supposed to read it...:-)

If you don't want it you must not love this hobby. Better just sell all your cigars now.
