I received a message saying that my account was suspended for breaking the advertiser rules. I assure you, I was not advertising, simply posing a question to the members if vapors and cigar smokers get along.
Clearly not but letting it be, NO WAY! I operate many forums, right is right.

It is what it is I suppose. Can I ask my general question without getting flagged?
Depends on how you word it.
Stirring the pot are ye?
No, im not,
you seem like you made a simple mistake. Just trying to make it simple. Lord knows there arent too many here who skirt the edge of the rules more then me. I like to help. And i would like to help you stay and be a member of our extremely friendly group. But rules are rules weather i like them or not i follow them cuase i like running my mouth more then i do sitting in a corner by myself.
No different then getting thrown out of a bar they make the rules and i pushed my luck.(true story by the way)
Trust me Classy slaps my knuckles from time to time.
