Pxff.com no more?

I was a former member there. My only regret is how I was established over there and now I have to start over again. I'm surey sentiments are shared by other members as well.

Oh well, such is the internet I suppose.

...I'm sure if you "sweet talk" the Mods, and offer some small tokens, they would be more than happy to bump up your Post count and Trader feedback to make you feel right at home

Just think, you can participate in the NST deal again. No, I understand, trader rep does mean something.

It is very frustrating and I certainly understand where you are coming from. When Club Stogie was sold, I was very anxious but since the same mods were there and Jon Caputo seemed enthusiastic about maintaining the CS culture, I relaxed. It turned out that the changes around what became pvff.com were such that I was no longer comfortable there and so came over here.

I'm glad that reputation bumps here are not like at CS, because if you had a good circle of friends who had huge reputation numbers then you could quickly have huge numbers as well. I wasn't on the board long before I had huge numbers, mostly from friends in the banter thread. I like the system used here better, but still think that the system is inherently flawed because you can bump someone for just about anything, so a large ring gauge doesn't necessarily equate to cigar knowledge. That's the principle reason that mine is turned off.

I hope that you enjoy your stay in the asylum and that the style here meets your needs.
