I escaped from Puff's Sinking Ship

[ZippoGeek]

I was looking for the life raft too...thought the same thing. No word on what happened eh?

According to the Puff facebook page, they're "upgrading/moving their servers." For four days?! Without any notice whatsoever? Something is fishy there. I think I'd rather herf and bomb here from now on. Much better interface on this site, and a lot of the guys are moving over anyway. The BOTL is the BOTL, no matter where you go.

I was thinking about coming over here a few weeks ago after I found puff but since everybody was so nice and helpful I figured id stay on puff but now that I dont really have an option I figured id sign up. I really like the ease of navigation over here and The site it self seems to be more put together. I also like how you don't get bombarded by ads. Does botl have a mobile app for droid? That would ice the cake!

Well thanks for that at least. I couldn't find a hint of what was going on.

What irks me is that it happened in the midst of CigarFest's ticket sale. I was talking with Trish who was involved with tickets and was making some headway. When the tickets went on sale, I followed every step and then the site crashed and when it finally came back online....NO MORE TICKETS!!!

That sucks. It's still offline as of right now. Done with that. I hope everyone just jumps ship to this side.

Welcome fellow puffer.

What really sucks is being involved in passes contests and such when this happening

As has been said, Puff has had this problem before. If/when they resurface I suggest that you get email addresses for any pass/trade that you are involved with.
Welcome to BOTL! Good people here as well!

Welcome from Illinois! I also was/am on Puff. I created an account here after the last bad Puff outage, but haven't been on here much. I think that's going to be changing. It's too bad because I was on the list for a couple of trades and passes over there, that probably won't be happening now. I will say that the people over here tend to be a bit more sane than Puffers.

Great to see you too, I sent you a PM on Puff, did you ever get to read it?

I don't believe so

Easy on the mention of bombs. From what I've seen and heard, mail boxes don't seem to fair to well around here.

He doesnt know us much yet I guess...

I was on their site and made some newb buys from a few of the members. I really would have liked to thank the members for sending me such a great selection of sticks. but I guess that will have to wait. Seems like a great group here to shoot the breeze with and maybe someday share a stick.

Well I was part of the September mass exodus, I was here for a week, and just never went back to the other side. Not because of more reliable server uptime. I noticed the overall environment. There was less drama over here. So, if I may give some advice, try not to make this a "slam thread" about the other crew. That's their fire, let them put it out. Over here we don't throw stones. We throw cigars.

Howdy fellow former puffers! (And everyone else too. )
