Swap Guide / End Survey
Partner Name: <b>DevilPuppy</b>
Swap Name: <b>Newbie Swap</b>
Did your partner keep in communication with you?:<b>Initially she did, but after she received her swap, all communication stopped.</b>
Were rules of the swap adhered to? (send out date, number of items, etc): <b>No, send out date was the first week of September and I still have yet to receive anything. I messaged her about a week ago and still haven't heard back from her.</b>
Wow Dessah that's amazing!!
Kiddo: Yikes sorry to hear that. Really SUCKS!!
Sharon B has got back in touch so when we have recieved each other's parcels can we take her off the flakers list?
Yes, of course! I've updated her as "pending receipt". Let me know what happens. ;)
My newbie swap with TE5 looks like it's come to a halt...we were supposed to send out 20th Sept. but she has apparently not been well and may not be able to finish, so I have suggested we cancel or postpone it, and I'm patiently awaiting a reply........
However, she has an excuse, so no need to put on flaker list.
That's four newbie swap parcels stacked in the cuboard now!!!!!
Is this a record?!?!?
*Bump*
Nora!! You're crazy. I suggest the next newbie you take on, you decide the theme of the swap and take some of the items out the other parcels! :p I know some of them are personalised and I can't really help you get around those ones unless someone comes a long with the same name lol.
Best of luck in the furture! At least you didn't send out though, and you still have all your efforts with you! That is one 'up-side' to this situation...
I really hate to do this and I was hoping I would never have to.

<b>Did your partner keep in communication with you?:</b> At first she did. I became her friend on facebook and we would communicate a lot by chat, but then it all stopped right after it was send out time.
I think the facebook account she used was just made for her online friends, because she didn't use the same name as she gave me for mailing as on the account and it is mainly CO+K people who are her friends. I have tried contacting her my messaging her on CO+K and on facebook, with no luck. She has made no activity her the CO+K account or facebook account since I sent off.
The funny thing was that she had contacted me a week before I was ready to send off, asking me when the send off date was. I let her know and told her it would be a week before I would be done. She had told me she had finished and was ready to mail, but she was just going to hang onto the package until I was ready to mail out. When I was ready to mail, we had contact again and agree that we would send out on the same day. The day after I had sent out, she said that she wasn't happy with the quality of some of the items she had made for me and wanted to make me new ones. This was over a month ago and that was the last I heard from her.
<b>Were the rules of the swap adhered to?:</b> I would have to say no, since I sent out and have not receive anything in return.
This does sadden me since I worked hard on my projects and it would have been items my daughter would have love to have had, but I told my daughter she couldn't, since they are for a swap.
I believe that she is a younger girl, so I'm real tempted to send out a letter like Dessah did, but I'm still holding out hope that she will contact me.
Ok, This list is getting long. <b>Please look to see if your name is on this list! If it is, contact your partner asap!</b> If you're in contact with one of these members, please let them know their partner is looking for them!

Partner Name: Ruby W.
Swap Name: Halloween Swap 2010
Did your partner keep in communication with you?: We maintain contact, and she was totally awesome!
Were the rules of the swap adhered to?: Heck yes, She rocked my world with all my favorite things, I still in love with these weeping angel earrings, have not taken them off unless to shower and sleep!! I love hers!!
Really is a shame that the list is so long! Good idea on posting it elsewhere Dessah, as we all know there is someone on that list who still posts on the boards!!
Not sure if I should say that but I'll take the flaming if it comes to anything. It's just completely out of order.
To end on a good note though....
*Blushes* Thanks Sug! You're a sweatheart!
Ooops...I just remembered that I copied the text to paste it onto the chat board, then forgot to do it within the 5 seconds it took me to navigate to that page.
I'm a nerd.
Ok I'm going to make the list longer
Partner:Riley
Swap name :Vet V Newbie
Communication :Good to start with but no recent contact.
Were rules followed:No package received I still have her custom made package on my desk.What makes me really angry is that she found time to suggest a new round of Steampunk swap but couldn't let me know she is unable to complete this previous commitment.It would take two minutes to type I will be unable to complete this swap and then it is a closed matter.
Partner: Cloudgurl
Swap Name: ATC round 16
Communication:Good at first but then disappeared
Rules met:Sent no feedback or receipt of swap.
Ok, here's the updated list. Unfortunately, Cloudgirl has reached the 3 strikes your out category...
I'm sooo sorry for all the partners of these people!
