Well, it's been a few days since the needed shift in what can, does, or doesn't get posted and change is always initially uncomfortable. Deano's (and subsequently mods') position, from potentially legal intervention, would seem clear. I don't think he started this place to get his arse ragged through court, and I certainly didn't accept an invite to mod for similar reasons. I joined up to dissuade members from saying fuck, shit and bolloxs
End of an era?
Cup of tea anyone?
It is still a great place to be
Sir G of outer Space
That about sums it all up in a nut shell
We all need to respect each other USA & UK
Now we have Big Bro causing problems for all of us.
So FTG and their kangaroo laws we just have to meet
in our shelters and discuss our wares !
A final note
Money talks
Bullshit walks
Sit down lets
shoot the Breeze $$$$$$$$
Yes, maybe restict it to the UK only
We could have a purge on the 'merkins I suppose that might tidy things up a bit.
They come over here onto our forum with their money, stealing our women with promises of silk stockings and chocolates it's like 1942 all over again.
Over paid, oversmoked and over 'ere.
Gotta rush, I'm modding on the Klan forum and some newbie just back from Tennessee on holiday bought some fake robes and is now trying to sell them, you know the story.
Good to know that The Voice of Reason is alive and well.
I agree, get rid of those fucking Yanks. They always expect you to speak English and then get even more annoying when they can't get a hamburger or a cold beer. Arrogant bastards.
Oh wait! I forgot again.
Never mind.
---------------------------------
Now, regarding the apparent confusion and marginal hostilities (can't we just all get along?) that seem to be developing, let me see if I can sum this up and make everyone happy.
The simple fact of the matter is that we have been discussing subjects which could easily put the moderators of this board into a very bad situation through no fault of their own. That's not fair.
We all enjoy being here and we can easily continue our enjoyment without delving into the "taboo" areas. It's not that hard, lads; it ain't rokkit science.
No reason we can't still discuss any aspect of enjoying primo stoogies (both CC and NC) or warning fellow BOTL's about dogrockets. We only need to restrict any discussion of obtaining the aforementioned from sources other than the UK. See? Now that wasn't so hard, was it?
So, belly up to the bar boys (or whatever expression you fooking limeys use, like maybe: toot your tuggle to the tavern) and I'll buy the first round. Everyone good? Okay. Then here's to UKCF and up theirs! Bottoms up!
Since there is nothing to discuss, I only asked the reason! All your posts were DON'Ts but without explaining the reasons. It's your forum, it's your rules, and since you are not willing to discuss I am not proposing something! Sorry for annoying you with my questions, although I didn't really got why you got so furious...
Maybe because you asked the same question several times and then commented on my honesty, even though previous reasons had quite evidently been put forward by me and others (and tbh were quite obvious).
But, if I were HM Customs I would see the forum as being more valuable OPEN than restricted. I'm pretty sure our Customs officers liaise with their opposite numbers in Europe and elsewhere. In the big picture what a few Habanos hobbyists may or may not get up to is just small-time compared to the much larger and organised trafficing of counterfeit and 'unaccountable' cigars. If in some small way the forum assists in pin-pointing those sort of activities, then from a Revenue perspective it's a information source for good.
