Hello,
New to this site. I was active on the cigar forums years ago: ClubStogie, Puff, Cigar Asylum). My SID is/was the same: zitro_joe
Took a long hiatus from the forum worlds. Curiosity entered my brain, I signed back on and I had an invite to join this place - so, Hello.
Military for 19 years...yes, I counting down the minutes for the 20.
Recently moved to Clovis, NM from San Antonio, TX. Three kids, which is why my online time was in Hiatus. Had a wonderful run in SA. I miss it there.
Anyhow, it is good to see a lot of familiar names.
Hope to meet, get acquainted with everyone.

I have quite a variety that I amassed, but I seem to have a stockpile of Oliva V, Anejo, and ESG. My celebration sticks are some variou Camacho Liberty, or some Flying Pigs.
If I'm smoking a yardgar, I go with Famous Smoke Nic line, or Leon Jimenez.

I took up coaching Fast Pitch Softball for my two daughters, what a blast. Ended up making and taking the 2016 Little League Softball World Series.

AF is correct, however, all of my deployments have been with Army and Marines. One more deployment to go and I'm done.

Question for Mods, or anyone with the answer...
When I ever I reply to other threads, it states that it has to be approved by a mod; also, there is a captcha for everyvtime I post. Is this a probationary thing to help prevent spam?
I looked around for a "sticky" but could not find an answer. Maybe Im blind.
If so, how long does this period last? If not, how does I change it?
Thanks!

Welcome Joe, we are glad your are here.
As far as your above question, I don't have a clue. Nature or jhedrick83 will know and can likely help.

It lasts for 10 posts and only affects posts with attachments or links. Looks like you are past the 10 post count now and all of your posts are up now. Yes, it's intent is to prevent spam. Please let us know if it continues!

Also, thank you for the contribution. The captcha should go away after the post limit but with the status change from the contribution that should make it stop as well. Let me know if you have any further issues.

My oldest is 12. We started when she was 10. It was the 11-12 division we won last year.

My youngest was 6 when we started her, oh man, corralling all those little girls was a feat. Loved it.
I used to be a paid coach and it was some nice extra change, but volunteering did something good to me. It really did change me for the better.

Sweet, those are resolved. I dont seem to be able to "like" or "thank" a post.
I can see that others have done those actions; but those button are not available to me.

Are you viewing the site from a mobile device? If so, go the very bottom and select the "Full Site" option. The mobile version is a little watered down. If that is not the case or doesn't resolve, let us know, and I will have it looked into.

Ok. I just messed with it a bit. If you have your browser set to remember your username and password. Log out and log back in and let me know if that's better.

Awesome, thank you.
I'm still having the "Mod must approve" on some threads. Namely...what did you smoke NC; beer what are you drinking.
I appreciate your help.
