BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Bump for the new guys
That's exactly what it just did for me this is the kind of great information that would be greatly appreciated and extremely useful to find as a sticky in either introductions as a "Newbies to cigars information" or in General cigar in discussion as the same. As a newbie I would appreciate a thread as a sticky that I could refer to for 'General Cigar Common Knowledge'.

I like to send SFR, but LOVE to send MFR or LFR. A PIF should always be sent ASAP or PDQ. My TAT obsession is OOC. 
You like to send a SMALL FLAT RATE, but LOVE to send MEDIUM FLAT RATE or LARGE FLAT RATE. A PASS/PAY IT FORWARD should always be sent AS SOON AS POSSIBLE or PDQ...whatever that means. Your TATUAJE obsession is OUT OF CONTROL!?I like to send SFR, but LOVE to send MFR or LFR. A PIF should always be sent ASAP or PDQ. My TAT obsession is OOC.
