    The persistance of our community

    Got an email last night that announced that Puff.com was back up. After their going down about a month ago, the way our community of tobacco connoisseurs found its way back together is a testament of the cohesiveness of the group. I understand Facebook had a lot to do with getting the word out. I just happened to have someone's email address from a previous transaction and found out by emailing them. How did you find your way back to the group at CigarBum?

    How did you find this place?

    Saw a post while lurking on another forum trying to find out what happened.

    After we got thrown out and the door closed behind us I started wondering the streets and asking strangers if they knew about "poof forum". Eventually I found a bar and someone said that there was this new forum so I checked it out and waited for someone to come in and I sneaked behind them just before the door closed.

    (saw a post at a random site talking about a new forum)
    If it is to be, It is up to me!

    Sorry, someone had already posed this question to the group and I didn't realize it. (see Nature's hyperlink)

    I'd been wandering aimlessly in the dark not even realizing I was lost. Then @Tobias Lutz found me deep in the wilderness and showed me the way home.

    Hey no problem!! They can post here too! LOTS of newcomers and old-timers still wandering in. Nice to see how people found their way here.

    I think it is all just a testament to the fact that the community is what makes the forum, the forum doesn't make the community.

    I googled "Is Puff.com down for good" and came across a discussion that referenced this site.
    Sure glad I found it.
    Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

    Couldn't agree more. The URL makes no difference to me. If we change the name again tomorrow I couldn't care less, as long as the gang's all here.

    It seems like almost everyone has made their way over to the Bum, so I'm a happy smoker.
