You typically season your humidor through saturation, which causes the moisture to soak deeply into the wood. The wood expands slightly and seams will tighten up a bit.

If you don't season your humidor I don't think your sticks will keep very well. Over time the RH is going to change much more radically than if you had properly seasoned your humidor.

It's not a matter of it being "bad", it more of a case that it is not as "good" -- if you see the difference...
