Can someone fill me in on the Cigar Drama?
So I was a member of Club Stogie several years ago (some of you may remember me, some may not).
Now that I have much more time on my hands, I decided to pick up the habit again . I paid a visit to clubstogie.com and was redirected to Puff Cigar. I posted a thread asking what the heck was going on, and a few members directed me to this website. But their links were blocked in some of the PMs. What's the deal? Is there a cigar civil war brewing? Thank you to Shawn (ssutton), jledou, and Jim (negncic) for pointing me to this site... I appreciate it! -Vadim |

Jon Caputo sucks ass, that's where the drama started.

Re: Can someone fill me in on the Cigar Drama?
Long story short, a guy named Jon Caputo bought Club Stogie and several other sites, and merged them as Puff.com. Several of the people who are now here did not like the way things were over there, nor did Caputo do himself any favors by responding to the tiniest criticisms in a very immature manner. The "Team of 11" created this place and I, along with many others, am very grateful.

I have got to admit, I do like this place a lot better than Puff from just a superficial look. Not as many advertisements, or gimmicks. Seems more "homely"
Are there any old BOTLs from the CS days that post on here? |

Re: Can someone fill me in on the Cigar Drama?
Fromt what I've been told, some of the old mods from CS were unhappy with the new management and left to create CA. Most, if not all of the great people from CS are now on CA. Welcome to your new home

Does CA have the same volume of cigars going back and forth among members? My favorite part of CS was all the bombs, PIF, and things like that.

Indeed, about 95% of CS members are here, and yes, there are cigars flying all over the place!

It was all my fault. I told Da Klugs I liked him and it made him uncomfortable enough to abandon ship. Then I found him again. The restraining order is kind of an inside joke between us.

Re: Can someone fill me in on the Cigar Drama?
I had the same experience a while back. went to CS after a year off. It seemed really dead and I didn't see any familiar names. I made a post inquiring about what happened and was directed here.
I just went back to take a look for curiosity's sake and came across this hilarious post: "Picked these[Cohibas] up last weekend. I'm quite excited because of all the CC's I have, these are the only ones I'm absolutely certain about being real." |
