general cigar question for all...

I leave them on because I don't want to damage the wrapper. I have never really thought about it offending anybody I am smoking with, they are usually smoking better cigars than I am anyways. I have never found myself envious of a cigar somebody else was smoking.

I tend to leave the band on myself too (always have). Like others, when the burn reaches the band, the heat has had the time to warm the glue, which makes (a majority of the time) removing the band easily and effortlessly from your smoke.

Now, another reason for keeping the band on your cigar is that it makes for striking-up a conversation with another BOTL or SOTL at a herf or your B&M like "So, what you'd think of that Cremosa anyways"
