i often wonder if it is just a need to belong and be part of something (in thread posts only) without the "hard" obligation of upholding that commitment. again this is just a question and not an indictment of anyone in this thread or any other.
It is for the reason you stated (one of them) that I will NOT
sign up for more than 2 EASY swaps at a time, but I try to
keep it at only one swap so that I can make sure that I do
fail to meet the commitment that I made to the swap.
I have a swap that I would like to see done, but since I have
never "hosted" a swap before I fear that I may screw it up.
I hope you meant to say so that you do NOT fail to meet the commitment!! lol (I couldn't resist) Hosting is not hard if you are serious, I would help you get started and tell you how I do it. When I took over I got no instruction and I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone else. So if I can be of any help send me a pm. Lori
