When did you realize you weren't a newbie?

[Irritech]

I think BOTL is a little more open and accomodating to newbies to the board.

I know this to be true. The whole post was very well said and about sums it up. The amazing thing is just how much I've learned in such a short time about cigars. Funny thing is, the internet is such an integral part of my smoking experience that I couldn't imagine smoking cigars w/out it. It would be pretty lonely. :stretchgr

BTW, is Todd still considered a newbie?

I had a little vacation away from the hobby and now that I am back I have the excitement of a newbie with "knowledge: of a veteran but the body of a FOG:hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica :hysterica


You can never know too much about this hobby, but you can never know so much that you cant learn something about it.

But the most important thing is enjoy those cigars and all that goes with them.

I'm not a newbie to cigar sites but still a newbie to cigars in a sense of learning because the info. never stops.

I think I stop being a newbie when I stopped labeling my self as some one who smokes cigars from time to time and started to label my self as a cigar smoker even though i still smoke the same amount when I was a newbie. As far as knowledge I am still learning my cigar ABC's.

Of course, the letter was in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. Ken was actually there when the first cavemen discovered fire. :bouncetau

Not much to add to this , but I look forward to the day when I can do more answering than asking.

I started that long, perilous climb out of newbie status today when I smoked a Gurkha Double Maduro and realized that I wasn't thinking about the cigar the entire time I smoked it.

You know how hard it was read all those little symbols without readers?


The guy shows up once a month just to bust my cajones.

Good to see you Mathew.

I will always think of myself as a newbie.

The day I started to think I might be an addict was when I spent $150 bucks on a sampler pack.

For me, the issue was realizing that I'd gone from a guy that likes to smoke cigars to a Cigar Smoker.
