Sorry, i did not read this post like most of ya did. I have seen many noob/vet trades where the noob sends his end ( which of course is noobish smokes) and the vet bombs the hell out of him and the noob is never heard from again. Thus the reason for my original post. :pokemyeye

yup, and it does discourage those of us who sponsor. then again, hopefully, for every one that does this, we get two who hang around and contribute. hell, my roster of newbs has some killer brothers on it, and i feel proud to have helped them get established here. and i still remember the shock and awe of my n00b trade (i tried to go large, got crushed, hi bob!), and i try to carry that through every transaction i am a part of here. and i ain't the only one, by a long shot.

in the end, this is all a part of building this community we got here. we have a good thing going on this board, and it is in our best interests to try and get the young blood in line, show them who we are and how we do, and that we take the whole "BROTHER" thing in BotL seriously.

I received my end from shadowcam... I was absolutely amazed. I have read about a ton of the cigars he sent me, but have yet to try any of them. I can't wait to see if some of these cigars live up to all the hype. Eddie this was extremely generous and I want to say thank you again for such a warm welcome!

Man, you did good! Lots of sticks in there I would love to try at some point, and several that I have. You'll enjoy them, for sure!

Hey guys,

I'd love to be a part of this. I just got started after picking up some CC's while in St.Barts on vacation. I can trade a few of those if a sponsor is interested?

Just trying to fit in ahha
