This is not so much a rant but a long winded question.
I have interacted a little here, not really contributing I agree but then I know nothing about pipes.
I posted a thread asking for a pipe & possible samples, This resulted in a few comments suggesting it is hard to ship to here & really we should just buy a MMCC & a few samples. If we could do it that easily I would not have posted! I was helped in the end by a BOTL that all respect & lives on the cigar side as well were they understand how to PIF.
I've also sent 2 PM's to members of this section in the last 2 days and even though they have spent hours on here since then, they have chosen not to even give me the courtesy of a reply. Hmmmmmm
So far all I can see is a lot of people NOT giving a shit about the pipe section. You guys need to stop being so insular. I dont smoke a pipe but my wife is new to it. If this is how you treat newbies then I pity this side of the forum.
Oh, a little note to the lesser posters that complain about the one line responses. Is this verbose enough for YOU?
