    Thanks all for the welcome.

    I made a post here and in another thread with no issues, but the last two posts I've tried to make have gone into my "drafts", with the message of something like "your post will be added after it is approved". Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?

    ETA, the issue seems to be resolved, I just posted the three posts saved in my drafts.

    It's happening again.

    Testing, looks like the site has a case of the hiccups again. Multiple posts and posts getting stuck in moderation. Seems to particularly effect @TRayB.

    @TheCigarChick can you have someone take a look?

    @Stubble, thanks. A whole bunch of stuff became unstuck all at once, I have triple and quadruple posts in several threads now. It looks bad on my part, sorry.

    Fvcking noobs. ;-)

    You get one hour to edit a post. And editing is all you can do, it can't be removed.

    Every so often I see I have a few drafts waiting for me to act on, but when I check the thread it was in the original post is there. So, somehow some posts get posted and become drafts as well.

    We once had a batch of hundreds of old posts released from moderation, flooded the forum with irrelevant old replies. I happens, don't worry.

    Thanks for taking care of the issue, Lindsay.

    @TRayB, I think I got them all.

    @TheCigarChick, perfect! Thank You, I will smoke a cigar in your honor tonight! Is a Monte Cristo Platinum acceptable?

    @TRayB, great choice! Monte Platinum I feel is one of those classics that's often overlooked.

    Welcome to the forum @Sampson. There’s a lot of good info to be found here. Check out the “what are you smoking” threads (morning, afternoon, night) to see some of our regular favorites. There is also a Ccom top 25 list or two floating around somewhere. The really serious, in depth, intellectual discussions happen on the vHerf. There is also a thread with the information for it. People usually start signing on around 8:30 - 9:00pm est. Just bring your thick skin and don’t take things too seriously.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    Welcome @Sampson, I'll post the links to previous top 25 lists. I really am liking the Pichardo Clasico Sumatra right now, it tastes great and doesn't break the budget.

    That is an interesting top 25 list, I have had several that were mentioned that I am surprised didn't make the list so I will have to add these to the should try list.

    Thank you for the welcome everyone
