Re: Announcement! Future Plans - Read within if you dare...

Thanks.

I look forward to the new site and hope it all goes well.


In regards to:
"Q: Will there be a PAID member area of the forum?

A: The entire forum will be open and free to everyone. We may have a paid membership section for things like special
discounts from vendors, sponsors, discounts on conferences and magazines and such but that would be the extent of it. If you have already paid for membership on Clubstogie that paid membership will move over to Puff.com"

In the event this may becomes reality......
Currently our supporter status is valid in 6 month intervals.
How will this expiration be handled?
I just renewed my supporter status and would like to have this time in limbo defined for me.

Say that the puff.com switch over takes place 01-JAN 2009.... then a paid membership becomes a reality on 01-May 2009.
I wouldn't want to lose this 'limbo' time off of my paid supporter time since the time in between January and May would be free to all except those from CS that are/were supporters.

I know this is a trivial amount of coin, but I thought I would ask before someone else does.

Is any of that clear? Can you understand what I am getting at?

IMHO - Anyone that is a CS supporter right now(or on the date which you take/took ownership) should be granted a 6 month subscription if and when that becomes a reality.


Thoughts?



Thanks for your time and I think I am looking forward to this!


Tim

Yes to subforums - we will add them on a request/case by case basis with input from the mod team from that particular forum

Will the CS pipe forums be maintained?

will Puff.com have it's own pipe community?

How will those established conflicts be resolved, through moderator mediation boards? A few very "celebrated" individuals come to mind, and there are no deficiencies of quite passionate and outspoken individuals regarding how the integration of "clubhouses" will be perceived, not to mention posting erm........ styles. the main Puff.com board may have to have quite different policies than the sub-boards, and more stringent, making some hypocritical conflict inevitable, or in the milieu of the child forum, a cultural change that is antagonistic due to the inherent nature of that forum to begin with.


Just wondering aloud. I have a flame retardant suit at the ready.
Good question. My answer is: I dont know. I imagine we would consult with the mod teams to decide what to do with banned people who were banned from 1 forum but not the other although Id imagine its not a ton of people (I hope!) lol

Well that should be easy. Leave it alone. If we didn't like it the way it is we wouldn't be here.

While I too am not thrilled about the name, all I really care about is that Puff.com just better not be blocked by my work firewall, damn it.

Nice to have you onboard Jon. Best of luck.
If it is blocked by your work FW I have a few friends that can..well..fix it

Well said Chris.

Congrats on the purchase and the vision to unite the communities to bring a common voice to the industry.

God speed
