Well that about seals it for me. :-)

I'm a little sad. :-)

Wow! I clicked on a video to watch it and there is an ad before you can watch the video. :-)

Maybe we can get paid for all those reviews we wrote up at CS that caputo's gonna transfer into his review section.:-)

We are Jon Caputo's whores! :-)

Looks like they lost almost 4 days of posts, must have used a 1-7-09 as their start point.

I just noticed the flag at half mast at the top of CA. In memory of CS. Nice.

I cleaned out my locker and I salvaged a few things from other peoples lockers as well!!!:-)

Nice catch, I missed that !

I just checked the puff.com home page. Did you guys see how much cheese you can buy? :-)

I also learned that Tampa Florida is the cigar capital of the US.

I agree with borndead that it's a complete 180.... the "no snob" thing and more casual atmosphere were some of the reasons why I joined. This sounds like they are trying to cater to the high-rolling crowd that actually tries to live the GQ lifestyle verbatim. Ugh.

I know... that fish and the mixed fonts on the banner are weirdly contrasting and rough looking. There isn't much I like about the way the site looks, and I feel I'm being impartial here....

I guess I'm sort of "lucky" in that I wasn't a CS member long enough to grow this strong attachment to the site.... I joined in October and a couple days later the bomb dropped. I will still miss it though.

:-)

Oh yeah, that's hilarious! :-)

Excuse me, I have some serious shopping to do now, courtesy of one of their banners:

Sounds like an online version of Mr. Marvin Shanken

If they had done *ANY* research about CS before they bought the site, it would have been clear that CS was *NOT* about any of this elitist BS. Thanks Team of 11 from saving us from a-holes like this!

OMFG, it is worse than I imagined. I am sooooooo glad we were all able to get out.

I didn't think it was possible.. but wow. No longer a brotherhood, looks more like the internet version of Cigar Aficionado now.
