As a new cigar smoker, this poll interests me, but what interests me more is that it was started a couple years ago, and has a couple posters intending to cut back. Sounds like Headbanger was successful at cutting back. The other post which stands out is the one by Electric Sheep. I know he's still around because I recognize his unique avatar.
So, ElectricSheep, were you successful in any or all the items on your list? Especially the last item?
This mainly interests me as a new smoker because I'm still weighing in my mind the risks. Ideally, I'll smoke one a week, and I intend to only get "good" smokes, the ones that cost more than a few dollars. And I want to get some really nice $20+ cigars for those really special occasions. But I'm also weighing the possibility of becoming a 1+/day smoker, which I definitely don't want. So for those of us who say we aren't addicted, and have wanted to cut back in the past, how did it go?
