    Pet Talk Gift Swap :(

    It has just been brought to my attention (well, not mine, but, I saw the thread on it) that two of our members did not receive their gift swaps on the second to last exchange. (It might have been the last exchange....but, I think you get the point).

    Now, this post was entirely my idea...and the two people that didn't get anything are the type of people that wouldn't want to be in the thick of things. Me? I don't really care.

    But, I am incensed with the lack of thought some people exhibit. To think that YOU signed up for an exchange, and recieved YOUR presents, but, would not uphold your end of the deal, quite frankly, says EVERYTHING about you as a person. I cannot believe you would continue posting on this board, not acknowledging what you did.

    The beauty of it, I suppose, is that no one seems to remember just WHO you are. But, like all things in life, it will come back to you tenfold.

    Enjoy!

    One of the people who haven't sent their gift is no longer a part of this board.

    It could have gotten lost in the mail. Probably a long shot though

    The last gift swap I participated in, which was in late July, early August, I received some wonderful toys from Julie (can't spell the user name--golden retriever lover, lol), and I know my gifts were recieved by some beautiful pups in Ohio

    It's a shame that someone didn't take it seriously, I would be hurt if I was left out.

    Oh. I didn't know that. But, it is interesting. I don't think he/she quit b/c of not sending the gift, though, right? It still peeves me. Why not contact the person and say, "look, things are really bad for me right now, and I am sorry...but..."?

    And, that is what peeves me. Now, two people **might** feel hurt, or not apart of us, and that is not only soooo wrong, but, soooo untrue.

    Yep... I think I know who too.


    Brandi says she has all the gifts, but hasn't sent them. I don't know why.

    She said something like that, but that was months ago. Really, I don't know her excuse now.

    As someone said in Cat General, I'm surprised it took this long for something like that to happen. That said, I do think it's pretty sad that someone signs up for something like this and then doesn't follow through - pretty telling.
