    SMPOST - Dippers' Forum

    Has anyone here ever heard of this board? They have a snus thread, and I'm giving the link here: http://www.gprcc.net/smpost/modules/...m.php?forum=27

    Funny, I was reading the posts and I found one guy who had ripped off one of my posts here! He can't be a snusser :?

    it's not too great. i haven't used it much so i don't have much base for comparison but this board is a lot better i think. more cultured and thoughtful individuals here it seems.
    of course not everyone on smpost is the same, and there's some good guys there for sure... but it seems largely made up of typical backwoods American rednecks who just happen to be willing to use computers.

      I had exactly the same reaction as you did. I thought,"rednecks, macho men and dip addicts". Their posts are short one-liners and boorish. I agree with RealmofOpeth that the individuals in this forum are a civilized, friendly bunch.

          ^ I agree.

          I've just read a bunch of posts on SMPOST and I'm not impressed. Didn't find a single interesting point of view.

            Yeah, I have been to this page a couple times, and the general form for a post there goes something like this: You chew ________(fill in kind of snuff)?!?! What are you, a queer? Not exactly the best and brightest on smpost.

                Trust me guys, you are not missing anything. It actually used to be a decent forum a couple of years ago, and truthfully had I never stumbled upon that place, I may have never discovered snus.

                But as more immature people started drifting in, it sort of went to hell. A couple of us tried to clean it up a bit and bring some class back to it, but we were far too few in numbers and ended up leaving. Coffey is exactly right, it soon became a macho "your dip is queer" type of arguing match. I've actually had my IQ drop a few points from reading posts there.

                Having said that, I'm glad I found this place. Everyone seems much more laid back and friendly, and is content to talk about snus without questioning each other's manhoods.

                  Aye, we've been lucky so far to be graced with a great crowd of intelligent and sound folks. I think we just need to keep using words like "nitrosamines" and discussing the deeper end of politics to keep the kiddies out :lol:

                    I am always amazed with all the great people on here. The fact that so many people from all over the world can act with such a level of decorum, always impresses me. There is some occasional jabbing, but it is always in fun. Be sure that if some douche did join the forum, he wouldn't last very long. This is something I've always wanted to point out.

                      ha..
                      found a little gem that is the epitome of our displeasure with that forum:

                      http://www.gprcc.net/smpost/modules/...=6716&forum=27

                      check out fordman and nhdipper's posts.

                      of course it's nice to see a couple guys to try to reel in the ignorance, but it doesn't change much.

                        I am a refugee from that other forum. Actually found this site on a post there. I discovered Snus 6 months ago, and immediately found that forum. At first, I was just excited to find a place I could learn more about my new addiction. And it wasn't that bad either. Recently (last few months), the dip users seem to be overwhelming the Snus side. I don't log into a Snus site to read a bunch of posts about how much Snus sucks compared to "real" dip.

                        To each his own of course, but they are two distinctly different products. I love Snus and am just so grateful for my heath and pocketbook that I have found a great way to keep using nicotine. This site is WAY better, and am glad to now make my home here.

                          Amen, sagedil and welcome to this forum!

                          I once used to lurk around on SMPOST. One year ago, when I switched from cigarettes to snus, it was a good source of information. Now, SMPOST seems to be taken over by 13 year old 'wannabe-rednecks' (if this makes sense). :lol:

                          Cheers!

                            Thanks chainsnuser,

                            One thing I have already noticed about this site is the geographic dispersal of all it's members. Truly, Snus users from all over Europe and North America. I just appreciate the diversity of experiences.

                              Well, SMPOST is more pain than fun to read, so I didn't read any non-snus-topic on this site for months. Even their snus-forum is no fun anymore. But today, I couldn't resist to read a dip-related thread and actually had some fun:

                              Topic: Ammonia!

                              Question: The last few cans of grizz wg I've bought had an overpowering ammonia scent. Never noticed it with grizz before. Anyone else found this to be the case? Its with the fc and lc.

                              First answer: Maybe someone pissed in them.

                              Cheers!
