What the f**k...

I only plan on doing 2 things at a hotel: sleeping and humping. Luxury? Why.

5 star dining to me is a steak that I grill on my balcony and enjoy while watching The Simpsons.

BAH...I could go on and on but I won't. Why bother.


And I still maintain that Caputo should have done a little more research on the term "puff lifestyle"...the Brits here at CA know what I mean!

I was only on CS for a couple of months before the announcement. I still check in over there a time or two a day. That being said... I feel for all of my friends/brothers/sisters here who had much invested in CS. I truly appreciate what we have here, but I also know that there are many of you who just cannot stomach even a visit.

can tell you though... the look of the new site is not me at all.

i went through a "buy out" on another forum that I am an admin on (not a cigar site) and luckily the new owners left everything to the existing staff to run. Nothing has changed except for who owns the joint.

Sorry to see that some other "new" owners of a site couldn't use that philosophy

Kinda freaky huh? Since we will never agree on college football I guess it's nice that we can agree on other things.

Seems awfully cluttered on the front page. But it's new, so maybe it'll get cleaned up. Kinda leans to the Afficionado Lite direction doesn't it?

There's like 13 ad's plus "content ads" on the homepage.

It's cigarlive renamed PUff with the CS post content to be rolled in.

I agree.

Our old neighborhood changed, but we we've been blessed with a new & better one, thanks to the team of 11. Thanks, guys!

Now we have CA thanks to the 11, and I agree with you that I love this place as well. It is much more homey to me than CS was, maybe that's because I was involved here from the get go. Not sure about everyone's feelings but that's my . And I don't think I have written it off just moved on.
Fair 'nuff.......

Don't think I' gonna be frequenting that spot anymore. Looks like a bunch of garbage to me. But I'll give it a fair shot.






Like many others have said, Thank you Team of 11!

tried mine, but nothing happened. Maybe it's because of the CS side being down at the moment. While the main page seems a bit "commercial", I will be interested in seeing how the CS side looks when it comes back up.

Aren't we supposed to type in our username@clubstogie?

I tried that too, but it didn't work.
