CS as we know it ceased to exist when the eleven started this site. This is a great home!

JMO
From a purely technical standpoint, I am impressed at the integration. It could not have been easy, as behind schedule as they were. From an aesthetic viewpoint, it is an embarrassing eyesore. Functionally, it seems to work like a vbullitin app. I don't think it is though. I can easily ignore the banners. I hate the fish and I don't want anything to do with a "Puff Lifestyle".

It appears that vbulletin is still handling the forum portion.
The front page is cnn layout (compare them side by side) with cigar "content" surrounded by ads.
Looks like ads and so forth are driven by shareasale.com and bigresponse.com
Then there is vbSEO providing LinkBacks, URL rewriting, etc...

Louie is now a spikey Mr. Peanut. Monocles are so obsolete they don't seem like they were ever a good idea. I just can't get used to that fish. Still, all the old content is still there.

Cross posting is probably going to be an issue between here and there as MrC has taken the position that he owns your words, pictures etc. Not sure how we are going to handle this but for the time being you cross posting Commiteed Pufferfish should post it here first ... to put it in the public domain then "elsewhere" if you desire to do so.

Do it the other way around and we may have to remove MRC's "property" from our site.
Yikes; thanks for that Dave. So noted....and makes me think...

Well gentlemen... I just made my last visit and paid my respects.

I visited once the other day when it first went up and my initial impressions weren't good. I figured I would give it a couple of days and then go back for a look. I was poking around and clicked on the Puff Lifestyle (or something like that) link where it was talking about the finer things in life being great watches and awesome hotel rooms blah, blah, blah... That did it... It just ain't me!!! I signed off and won't be back. I wish them well it just isn't my kind of place anymore.

To me the finer things in life are much simpler... my family, my friends including all of you, my favorite pair of jeans, my old arse redwings, Jack Daniels, a couple of decent guns, and my cigars.

Here's to the Team of 11 and to all of you who make this feel like home to me.

I wasn't a long time member of CS but I was comfy there. I'm glad I made the switch here though. I'm coming up on my first anniversary of being introduced to the world of cigars and the wonderful commraderie that goes along with them.

CA is a great place to be!
RIP Club Stogie
