It ebbs and flows, especially on the weekend.
"Introduction" threads tend to receive mostly "Hello" responses.
As it does meeting new people, guess most people don’t have the time to chat about nonsense and smoke 🤣
Welcome. Only 4 oz, sounds like you have some experience with fire to start out so well. :)

Hello and welcome from the great state of Pennsylvania. I’m just a mere infant pipe smoker too. I did the exact same thing you did in using this forum as my research encyclopedia. You’ve got me beat in the pipe department though. I still haven’t been able to bite the bullet yet and buy a real briar pipe. I’m still sipping on my 2 cobs. One day soon I guess. Anyway it’s cool to have another noob in the group. There are a few of us now.

What would your recommendation be for ones first dip into the deep end 🤣
Eh, browse the forums for something that seems well-liked or maybe that people are joking about.
...I tried War Horse on a whim because I saw a lot of memes poking fun at it, and it's my favorite now.

Also: Welcome from the Old Line State.

Welcome from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

I'm also new to the pipe world: I started in March with a garbage pipe and Captain Black Gold, which gave me steam burns but no smoke. Thanks to a lot of quality time learning from the members here, I now have some good quality pipes and am enjoying good quality tobacco. It's been very enjoyable!
