I was promised women and bags of kruger rands.

ucla695 · 12-01-2008, 07:18 PM

Because it feels like home and there are a lot of great BOTLs/SOTLS here!

Yazzie · 12-01-2008, 07:43 PM

Because of threads like this one which after reading all the posts and seeing a lot of the familiar faces really feels like the other place used to feel before the change.

I joined cause the other room was getting too quiet and I was given the opportunity to come over here. oh look a duck!!!!! I found that there were a lot of members that I knew from a previous board. it's a green duck!!!!!! I am glad to be here and hope to learn more.

They told me I would get a free box of cigars once a month.

Wolfgang · 03-30-2009, 09:19 PM

I joined for the free food.......... Wait this isnt... oh never mind.

Im here thats what matters

Being a cigar noob, I was looking for info on humidors and asked a question on another site and was berated for my lack of knowledge on cigars. I did a search and a link to here came up so I checked it out found what I wanted to know in a post and you all seemed like a nice bunch to hang around with while I travel into the wonderful world of cigars.

The only bad thing I can say is here is where I found out about cbid and in one week I filled my new 100 Ct and was banned from going there by the wife.

Thanks for being a great non judgemental group of crazies......

I just joined here yesterday. I have bought cigars from CI and CBID for close to a year now, and I have observed their forums, but I didn't feel comfortable posting there. For the most part, they seem more "elitest". They talk about many brands that I have never heard of or can't afford. ( I'm retired). I feel more "at home " here.

Mugen910 · 03-31-2009, 07:27 PM

cuz of the people!

ade06 · 03-31-2009, 09:40 PM

Because Jon is an a.s.s. hole!

Sixpacksunday drafted me from cs/puff

wshan · 04-01-2009, 12:45 AM

I was promised copious amounts of bacon.

JJG · 04-01-2009, 03:33 AM

came back to CS after a year off from smoking/buying only to find that everyone was gone. I think I actually posted a thread to the effect of "where did everybody go?" -got quite a few PMs directing me here.

roughrider · 04-02-2009, 03:30 PM

Got an invite from a buddy.

A gentleman stopped into the shop I'm employed at and talk eventually went to online retailers. Eventually he brought up this forum and I've finally gotten enough time (damn tax forcing us to reprice the entire humidor) to join. So far pretty impressed ^^

I come here to enjoy a place that doesn't fall victim to the stereotype that everyone is out to harm or steal from you. Instead you find friendship, similar enjoyments in life, and people who you couldn't pick out of a police lineup that would give the shirt off their back to help you if you were in need.

It's a place for cigars but not just about cigars

Great way of summing it up

, I'm certainly planning on posting and it looks like I could learn more than a thing or two from the members.

Chemyst · 04-05-2009, 08:19 PM

Two reasons:

1) Many gorillas migrated here
2) A deal on Vinotemps made its way to another message
board, and I couldn't get the details w/o joining here.

Glad I did find, join this website.
