Today I receive a personal threat, which I feel puts me and my whole family in jeopardy.

These are Cigar boards and we all signed up to discuss the things we enjoy doing and hopefully to build friendships along the way. When it becomes personal, its time to step back and take a look at what we're doing here.

I enjoy visiting several boards, because I like the comarodity and discussions that take place. I truly do hope that we can get back to that soon!

That's really sad. If you don't like the new board, don't go there but that's no way to behave. I'm sorry that happened, Dave.

Got quite a few over the years when I modded there. (assuming it happened there) Easy to read too more into them than intended, I always did, but hard for them at any level not to freak. Did you post about it there as well? Threating a member on any board post or PM is grounds for expulsion or at minimum a long vacation. One of the few benefits of unpaid janitorial duty is the immediate response and protection of the site owners for these types of things.

I agree that personal threats are uncalled for. Sorry that you have to deal with that Dave.

It's just a 'net board, already!

Sigh...glad to be "committed"!

I wonder if anyone got my quips at the old site about "Penn Central Lives" and "reaching for the black-and-yellow lever next to my seat".

(Hint on the last one...in a military plane, that's the LAST lever you want to grab hold of!)
