After much reflection, I have concluded that I erred horribly in judgement as a new forum member, by my post entitled "Bombing etiquette" and that wasn't my intention. I meant to spark a debate and aquire knowledge on displaying how to best deal with another forum members personal request. 
 
In my attempt to diffuse the situation, by removing the offensive post and remaining silent on the subject, I only made it worse. I apologize for making a bad first impression, and for the confusion I caused. Despite, many Cigar Geeks members assumptions of my motives, I meant no offense with this post and now ask for forgiveness.

Looks like I missed all this excitement being out of town, but if someone apologizes for their mistake, I say forgive and forget~! :bigthumbs:

Not everywhere do you get a second chance to make a good first impression, hope you use it wisely  :shy:

But more than words, actions speak volumes about one's intentions. Maybe it's time for a proper introduction and to start over, here at CG.  :angel:

It's all good, feelings were rubbed raw, butts were hurt, but it's all good. You'll learn to just roll with the punches around here. Get your curmudgeon proof skin on and jump back in the shark tank! Their bite is really not as bad as their bark, and they are a generous and great group of guys, you just have to get to know them. Jump on some Google Herf's and chat. Send some bombs out, take a few bombings, run a correct pass, it's all good.  If you are man enough to apologize, you are man enough to stick around here IMHO.

takes a big person to apologize and admit when they were wrong.   If you stick around you'll realize that all the comments about this being a great forum is the truth.  Welcome back.
