El Presidente Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Apologies for being away today but in the warehouse. I will touch base with those who made specific search requests over the next 2 days. Firstly, a huge congratulations to Jason Chipperfield for getting the forum to where it is. I can't tell you how much work is involved. He has been tireless and FOH is only one of his many projects in the IT game. Over the coming week we will continue to add some new features that are add ons provided by IP Board (software supplers). it will take us a full month to nail down the bugs and tweak the experience. In the end, it is the people who make a board and not the software but it all helps. I can tell you that I have manually been deleting/banning on average 50 attempted spam registrations a day. Some sneak through but I do my best and it is time consuming. Since we have upgraded we have had zero. It is one of the reasons upgrades are essential in order to utilize the latest spam blocking technology. Tomorrow, I will create the Cigar Underground Network sub forums for Canada (*****CA), USA (*****US), UK (*****UK), EU (*****EU), Asia Pacific (*****AP) Africa (*****AF).. As demand requires we will add others. Each forum will have a password that I will be mailed out to those registered with the *****int.com website. We will appoint "cell leaders" in each region over the coming month. Keep in mind $1 of box sales go to supporting each region for events etal. We will provide different offers for each region in regards to cigar sales etc. Once our graphics guy Daniel is back from vacation we will finalise logos and provide merchandise to purchase at as low a cost as we can provide it. Work with us, feedback always welcome. It is a streamlining process that will take a few months to get spot on. The Cigar Underground Network Terra Australis (*****as) has been a great success. Laughter, Friendship, fraternity, loyalty .."no tossers, no wankers" is the core. If we want to have a voice in HSA and domestic cigar political discussion then we need to band together and be targetted in our objectives. The Cigar Underground Network globally is the only way I can think of in doing this. We are bonded by FOH internationally, focused by the Cigar Underground Network domestically. Let the ride begin

ptrthgr8 Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Sweet! I just realized there was a seperate shopping site. I've now registered with *****int.com. I noticed the "current" price list/inventory is from 25 Sept. How often does the info on that page get updated? Cheers, ~ Greg ~
