Should CP add a Cigar Web Link Directory?

[Rod]

I'm considering adding a cigar directory. As a member, you will be able to add links, and of course browse through existing links. The system would maintain a active list, and not broken links.

I'll vote yes

It would be helpful to learn more about cigars.

Would be nice for the new folks Rod. :thumbs:

 

[Rob_k]

i agree with shadow, those of us new to the board and the hobby, would be a good reference.



edit for spelling

 

[Cheeze]

Yes, but I hope the links would be monitored by someone here? ???

 

[junkman_56]

I also think it would be a good idea, but the links do need to be checked to make sure they stay "on topic". We don't want spammers to add links that are not cigar related. I like the idea that they would be checked to make sure they are still active.

Are you considering categories; humidor info, cigar info, cigar construction, etc.?

 

[lucasbuck]

Great idea. Would be a fine addition :thumbs:

Sounds like a good idea to me but I think maybe links should be submitted to an administrator and they add them. That way things are sure to remain "on topic" and will be verified as working links.

Just a thought. My vote = YES

18 to 1 so far. Now who's the guy that wouldn't want such a feature??? :sign:

Yes, all link requests will have to go through me.

I guess he is not showing his face.

I voted Yes. I think that more information is always a good thing.

Some sort of rateing system would be awesome especially for ISOMS.

CP has always been the my "come back to" web site for info. So I think the "link" section would just enhance an already great product!

Looks like MOST of us want the link addition.

Coming soon...

 

[Rod]

We need categories, lets come up with a list of categories...

Retailers
General Cigar Sites (Personal sites)
Cigar Mfgr's
Accessories
Club's/Org's


What other categories???

 

[AVB]

I'm around plenty. The question was: "If CP added a cigar web link directory, would you use it?" My answer is still no, I wouldn't use it. That is not to say it is a bad idea.

Now you can go fret about who the other guy is.

Additional category possibilities:

Humidor info and cigar storage
on-line cigar stores
cigar mags
cigar review sites


just my 2cents...

Proposed Category:

Cigar Art


I don't know about everyone else, but I'm always looking for cigar related art (mostly photography). Maybe even dealers that sell cigar related art.

What do you guys think?

 

[CoventryCat86]

I voted no. I wouldn't use it, I wouldn't add to it and I just think it's more trouble than it's worth.

I agree with AVB, just because we wouldn't use it does not mean that it's a bad idea.

I was the 3rd no vote.

We need a system of "weighted" votes, the more posts you have, the more your vote counts :laugh: therefore mine and AVB's two "no" votes outweight 40 of you noobies "yes" votes

The supreme court decision of "One man, one vote" is bull$hit :laugh:
