r1v3th3ad Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 question related to: Is sontheheart gonna get a vacation? Under the new rules, he is mod/member/vendor all in one screenname...and he hasn't participated in a long while.The rules apply to everyone...we had some conflict where people say they are too busy, like I'm sure Erik is right now, with the launch of the new line, but still...rules are rulesnot trying to start drama, but I feel it is unfair that we can do unto one and not the otherback to the thread: was any of that from the new Lucid line? how was it?

racemyghost Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) i didnt read all the above posts but i was at the Odyssey cafe saturday night and it was great.Eric is definitely the man and he sure does know how to play his games (cards, chess, backgamon...)Got there around 8 and left at 2:30am. He showed me everything. How the tobacco is made and everything.The lounge was not what im used to (appearance wise) but it was definitely laid back and cool. Picked up a couple goodies too! (cheap too!) Edited June 3, 2008 by racemyghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the rule was made for vendors who don't contribute but advertise, make offers, and try to get us to buy. Eric has never once since I've been here tried to use the forum to advance his business. He's never made any special offers, advertised extensively, or tried to entice anyone to buy from any supplier or even direct from him. It's as though he's a member who just happens to be in the business. That sure doesn't stop us from picking his brain or endorsing his product, but truly that's not his fault. It's our choice to put him out there on blast same as we do vendors we really like. Can't blame or punish the guy for our actions, now can we?EDIT: And speaking of blast..... Kashmir Cherry is freakin' amazing!'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racemyghost Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Also, he said he hasnt been on for a while because he's been SUPER busy but he still loves u guys (ok i threw that love part in lol but im sure he does) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorshookah Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Dude Erick is the god of hookah, he is not a normal person there for he can break rules... he created the two most valuable things for hookah, shisha and the phunnel bowl... his lounge is so bad ass, whenever i go there its always a blast. he is always smoking K-peach...i sucks that most people cant go because of location, but if you ever get a chance dont pass it up, he sells everything dirt cheap and he is just an amazing guy to talk to about anything, not just hookah. my Ma and Pa were there once just to pick up some shisha for me and they stayed there for at least and hour. Erick is truly the Hookah Master..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dereksd Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 i can attest that.i have met eric all of 3 times and he knows me by name and my buddy who went with me the first time i met him.the second 2 times he asks hey hows alex bring him by.hes a rad guy who has brought amazing things to the hookah community and there for bipasses normal human law!

Johnny_D Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) Simply put.The Vendor specific Rules do not, directly, apply to Tangiers tobacco inc. Tangiers [Apart from out of the lounge] does not have a web presence. he is not in competition with other vendors. He only [Apart from out of the lounge] sells to vendors.This basically makes him a wholesaler. The same rules could apply to any other tobacco manufacturer who was present on the forums who does not sell direct from a website.There is also the fact that Eric has been around the forum's since almost day 1 and has contributed far more than a whole lot of us put together. I'd like to think this straights any misconception folks may have. Can we get back to the Topic at hand?JD Edited June 3, 2008 by Johnny_D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
