Compliment Swap! UPDATE: got them all in!

[Miss Z]

I don't think we've had one of these for AGES, and they're so much fun!http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

I know most people here will know how this works, but for those who don't. I'll explain.

Basically this is a sort of game where PTers compliment each other and it's designed to make PT a more friendly place to be! I am the head of this compliment swap, so if you would like to participate, send me a private message saying that you would like to be involved, or you can just post them both on this thread and hope I see it ;) . Please include both your username and your real first name. I will then post both of these in this post for other members to see.

I will accept participation requests up until Sunday 21st January. After that date it is too late to enter the compliment swap. After that date, look at this post and see all the people you will be sending compliments to. Please do this only after the date above as you may leave out any latecomers!

Once you have made all your compliments, however long or short, send them in another private message to me. I will then sort out all the compliments and send them to the correct person. You do not have to put your name at the end of your compliment but can if you want to. I will allow about a week for all the compliments to come in. I will hang on for a little longer if I'm missing one or two, but can't wait forever so if I presume you are not sending the compliments in then I will leave them out. If there's any problems with this just send me a private message whenever you can to explain. http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/smile.gif

***I WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY VERBAL BASHING OR ABUSE OF WHAT IS MEANT TO BE A BIT OF FUN. Any vulgar or offensive comments will not be used in the compliment swap and you will be deleted from the list. It is a form of bullying and it WILL be reported to Karen. I'm sure this won't happen but I'm saying it just in case!!**

OK, here is the list of people that will be involved:

[Miss Z]

Make that 4 Michelle's... lol...

Heh heh :p :D

Looks like we have a very healthy list of participants already, I think this is going to be a great compliment swap!

[Karen]

Everybody else, this is probably gonna take me awhile so stay tuned.

The way this works - because I think you've misunderstood, is we get the list of all the participants, then we all PM our compliments for everyone to Miss Z.

Miss Z then will compile all your compliments from everyone and send them to you, and will do so for each person.

[GreyhoundGirl]

How do you know who you're going to get then? Do you just compliment anyone in the list? But then wont some people get more than others?

[kittycats_delight]

Everyone gets a list off ALL the people on the list. You compliment ALL the people on the list. :)

[GreyhoundGirl]

ah, how does Zara know which os for which person?

[Kfamr]

You type your compliment after each name on the list. Then you PM it to Zara AFTER January 21st. She will make a list for each person using the compliments given to them by everyone else on the list and send it to them. You will receive only compliments given to you, Zara will receive only compliments given to her, etc.


I'm glad someone is carrying this one since I first started it. I've had too much in my hands lately and had thought about doing another, but don't have the time!

I'm going to have to wait and see closer to the deadline how many people join. If there's too many I may not be able to as I like to make overly long compliments. :p

[GreyhoundGirl]

Thanks from me too. :)

[joanofark]

Just dropping by, I guess I'll enter. :)

Thanks Kay for explaining that a lot better than I did! :D

I write overly-long compliments too, looks like I'll be pretty busy :p On the last compliment swap, I had to send all mine in three seperate pms, due to the word limit they have!

[Miss Z]

I thought I'd just bump this up in case we have any latecomers. :D

[borzoimom]

okay Miss Z and thanks for the pm..

[Anita Cholaine]

I'd kinda forgotten about this :p. I'd better start working on my compliments, I want to do them well!

[GreyhoundGirl]

:eek: I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!!! :o I'd better get going, I haven't even started. Good thing I was searching all Zaras threads...

Apologies anyone if they're late and/or short. I feel so bad now. :o :(

[GreyhoundGirl]

Do they have to be in by tomorow, in in by a week tomorow? I might just be saved... :p

[Miss Z]

OK then everyone, it's time to start sending your compliments to me!

If you have any last minute questions then don't hesitate to pm me. :)

[borzoimom]

done... lol..

[Miss Z]

OK, in the first post I wil be adding who has completed their compliments! :D

[I_luv_rusty]

Sent all mine :D

[Almita]

Same here, sent all mine in as well.

[Flatcoatluver]

Mine are sent to!! Come on people get those compliments in! ;)

[CagneyDog]

Can i still join :o

[GreyhoundGirl]

Zara, I'm saving you for last! :p

[kittycats_delight]

I'm getting there guys. I have about 5 more people to do. :o I should have it done by tomorrow.

[GreyhoundGirl]

when are they due? lol I can't find it... :o

I'm behind :o but I don't want to write them fast and hastily...

[Anita Cholaine]

We have until sunday to send our compliments, right? I hope so, cause I'm really behind too :o

[Miss Z]

Yes that's right everyone, I'll allow until about Sunday to let all the compliments come in. If I have a few members who have forgotten I'll pm them to remind them, but if they do not respond after a few days then I'll just have to leave them out. If you need some more time though just pm me and I can hold on for ya. ;)


Can i still join :o

I think really now it's too late unfortunately. I've had quite a few compliments in now so it would be confusing to send out pms to everyone that they need to make extra ones. But don't worry, I'm sure soon someone will hold another compliment swap. :)

This certainly is a big swap and I've had some great compliments in so far, especially from Michelle (GreyhoundGirl!) :D

[GreyhoundGirl]

Wierd... I thought mine were short and pathetic... :o

I still don't know what to write on yours... Porbably just "you're perfect, Zara, let's rub it in" :p :p :p

[Alysser]

Sent mine in today!

[kittycats_delight]

got them all done sending them in now.

ETA: I just got them...yes I said them...sorry there were 3. I guess I have a bog mouth...sent. I did each compliment in a different color to make it easier for you to seperate. :)

Thanks, and don't worry, you aren't the only one! ;)

[Miss Z]

I'm still waiting on a lot of people for their compliments, remember everyone that it would be best if they're all in for Sunday so they can be distributed soon. Those that still haven't sent them in by tomorrow evening I'll be sending a reminder PM. Thanks to those that have already sent theirs in :)

Of course, if there are any problems with the deadline just send me a PM. ;)

[Aquamarine]

Sorry Zara! I'll have those compliments in by tomorrow or today. I've been really busy and havent had time. I'll get 'em to you asap!! Sorry about that!

[Miss Z]

No problem :) I just sent you a reminder PM and then just realised you'd posted here, sorry about that! :o

[GreyhoundGirl]

(Also, here's a list of those members who have some of their compliments sent in so far:
