@miszelka This is sender's choice, so it can be a postcard of anything. :-)

When you say it must be written on, does that mean one should write a personal message to the recipient according to their profile? If so, this sounds like a great idea!!!

I just joined swap-bot, I have traded a lot on other sites though. Am I allowed to join? :]

Hi...Can you please coordinate the partners to send to? Thanks much! : )

hope we get our partyners soon!

mpontalba 08/ 2/2011 #

When will partners be assigned?

Dropping...

CWarner 08/ 2/2011 #

I'm dropping too--our coordinator hasn't been on the site since July 18 and has been having medical issues. Too bad.

savannahjan 08/ 3/2011 #

She is always 3-4 days late in doing partners. She'll be back.

viv1972 08/ 3/2011 #

She does usually assign a few days late and then extends the send by date.

Gwenelle 08/ 3/2011 #

I'm dropping from this swap, too. When someone says the coordinator is usually or always late in assigning partners ... when the host hasn't been on the site since the swap was created ... that just doesn't seem fair to other swappers. If she's having health trouble, maybe she should take a break from hosting until she can be more reliable? Just a thought.

count me out please

dropping from swap

knitzwithcatz 08/ 5/2011 #

no partners yet?? hmmmm. over 180 people in this one, yet nothing assigned 6 days later. i do swaps, and i assign partners on time, yet i'm lucky to get 25 people!

Lynnie 08/ 5/2011 #

The coordinator has up to 7 days past the last day to sign up to assign partners...I think I'll wait a little longer.

guys, the woman has breast cancer, cut her some damn slack. This is what she does, so leave her be, if you don't want to be a part of it, then just say so, not all this extra stuff, it's extremely rude.

Bobbie 08/ 5/2011 #

Angelica I hope you are feeling better soon. I'll hang in there, it doesn't matter to me.

BeckyG56 08/ 5/2011 #

Thanks @Sairea This swapping community should be a place to get away from the normal negativity of everyday life. Hang in there! If you want to send a postcard,send it to my husband,he loves them!!

bruxbaby 08/ 6/2011 #

Patience is needed on this site. She has been or is now signed in, so maybe partners will be assigned soon. She has to go thru a bunch of profiles.

ladydy5 08/ 6/2011 #

Usually after three days then admin. does it.

awesomesauce 08/ 6/2011 #

dropping...

ladydy5 08/ 6/2011 #

Sent mail to admin to select for her . I wanted to drop and won't let me for some reason

jennifergordon 08/ 7/2011 #

I agree on cutting her slack and don't even know her! It's a postcard ladies, not a million dollars.......if I was her and came back from the hospital, it would hurt my feelings that people talked so about me. She's already hurting, why hurt her more? come on, we are all women here, we should come together, not upart with no understanding. I feel sad that she is gonna see all this...

knitzwithcatz 08/ 7/2011 #

if a person has a health issue,it would be thoughtful to put that in the description of the swap. so us that join aren't wondering why no partners assigned! if i knew she had health issues, i wouldn't have said anything. common courtesy.

lulu702 08/ 7/2011 #

I agree with you jennifergordon. It is just a postcard, is that ALL some of you ladies have to worry about? The host is fighting for her life and you are acting as if this swap is the most important thing in your life, how sad for you! Let's have a little compassion, and understanding for each other. You neve know when YOU might be in the same situation, wouldn't you want understanding and compassion?? Just sayin...

bookworm02 08/ 7/2011 #

where are peoples compassions i aagree wirh jennifergordon cut the poor lady some slack, its a postcard end of if you read these comments read mine i pray for you xx

pedal2u 08/ 7/2011 #

I have finally seen what some people talk about ...Drama. Is there one of you who have dropped that c can't give this girl dealing with a terrible life crisis a little slack. Give me a breakshow some compassion and wait it out. I bet you could wrute out one simple post card in a day if it were to come to that . How mature are we here on swap-bot. those whpo dropped should be a shamed of themselveves especially learning of her health issues. I serious hope none of you develope breast cancer or another health issue or something in life interfer with your precious routines in the way you prefer to do swap=bot. Now let's all drop the talk and wait and wish her blessing.
