Puff Cigar Discussion Forums

Now what?

I have been interested in promoting coffee chit, roasting, brewing methods, etc. for the fun of it; I'm not sure I'm as interested when people are drawn here for promotional reasons and more posts and more passes mean more dimes for our masters. I have a low feeling of lowest common denominator being the next new thing. You?

I understand what your saying. If making money off of your wealth of knowledge, probably do deserve a piece of the pie, no?

Blasphemy it may be, though I do believe there are free boards out there still promoting non-profit.

Dime a click? I'm not worth that in todays weak market. Lets talk Folgers from now on and leave it at that.

Well the game changes completely on a 'for profit' site.

IMHO, you can kiss what we have done here thus far goodbye.

I, for one, won't be holding new contests. I won't be reviewing cigars, unless they were provided free. Before, the site is what we make of it .. Paul only provided the framework and (lately) minor guidance. Which is (was) great (if you want my opinion). With a for profit site, I need to carefully evaluate what I do in terms of putting green in somebody else's pocket while taking it out of my own. With no profit involved, this is just taking care of the board and its members. When the site goes commercial ... well that's completely different.

That was the magic of it, really.

So, what're you to do about the still-operating clutch?

I printed off that entire thread last week. I think I will probably move it to a free site before the transfer and finish it off there. Any preferences for site can be sent via PM .... I have one in mind but am open to suggestions.

Yes - that would be the best thing. Make it slip retroactive to 301,000 miles. Best for everyone. Best for Moo.

This is a good thing to do. I expect the worst...So do what i can to preserve some of the fine info on a broad range of topics.

I do think that we should still carry on as usual till we are proven correct on the paid site...Flash galore...
If we change our ways here at CS..We will destroy fro within.
