What I was going to say.
I don't smoke - have enough respiratory issues without exacerbating them - but I do think some smokers are truly oblivious to others sensibilities (addicted????)
I don't like campfires or bonfires, either.
Some members have said that they won't buy or trade with smokers or pet owners. I've also noticed some members state that they are smokers - so that others can be aware and decide whether they want to play or not.
I think there are several threads that tell/suggest how to get smoke odors out.
