A welcome thread for all who come here expecting good things. From the beginning of this Forum which has had a history of volatility it behooves those who Administrate this place to understand the past before venturing into the future. There is an urgent need for good Amins to keep their fingers on the pulse of how this Forum runs but it isn't a prerequisite to have overwhelming knowledge of cigars. It's really about having good people who have had a history of being here and knowing how Forums are to function w/o alienating members and that means being honest and forward thinking. Most importantly it's about how to manage things before issues/problems start and dealing with them before they become a cancer. There are people I know on here that are immediately up to that task..Derek being one of them.
