Hello. Pirate Kake has 75% Latakia, Star of the East, 50%. Does anyone know, or can guess on the % for Ten Russians? Thanks, LeRoy.

Yes.

You again?!!

 

[kcghost]

I'll play. 10%.

Not sure.... how do you like each of those blends? Is it too much Lat?

 

[cigrmaster]

I forget which Dan Tobacco has the highest Latakia amount in it. I think it is 75% or more. Even when I was a Latakia smoker it was way too much for me. I am sure someone will come up with the name.

I don’t think he’s trolling. I think he’s just using the forum as his personal assistant.

I'm shocked people are still responding to him as if his questions were serious and legitimate.

You have to stop telling people about it. I haven’t completed my cellar of it yet! Keep it secret!

Everyone on the forum who likes Latakia loves Captain Black Grape. 80% Latakia. I heard it’s going out of production soon, so be sure to buy a few pounds.

I got warned about being mean to this guy. Otherwise I'd be lighting him up.

Ahhhh, come on guys. If you don't want to respond, you don't even have to do anything, easy peasy.
Let's not drive off a newbie because we are suspicious.
Remember what we did to that one forum member... poor poor Starcat. He will be missed.

Ok, then. How does one broach the subject that a new member has not lurked long enough to learn the local culture and make an effort to fit in? How to raise the issue that he seems to be treating the forum like his personal pipe encyclopedia rather than a discussion amongst peers?

This sort of light piss-taking, to borrow from the British, is how lots of men let a new person to a social situation know that they’ve unfortunately stepped their toes over a line of local culture. It’s not a capital-r Rule, so it’s not something to report to the mods, so there has to be some mechanism to bring new members into the local culture. Silence won’t do it. Silence just lets anyone come along and ruin a good thing.

I’d be interested in hearing alternatives. But this one has thousands of years of practice behind it.
