Quote:Originally Posted by sborockI am glad you like it. I am sorry that the mail system was so slow. I figured you have or have seen every book out there so I thought a print would be more unique for you. |

 @Rafel sent this great book and nice card to me. Thank you for your kindness. He had missed the gift exchange so I did another one with him so he didn’t miss out(so did someone else I think). Wrapped nicely in a box that was bubble wrapped and placed in another box!! That cost a fortune to ship. Thanks again so much hopefully you like what I got you and your happy with it. Happy belated holidays!!! |

| I think I'm done with the gift exchange after this year. Two years and two recipients who didn't participate in the show-and-tell aspect of things really is sort of frustrating. I don't think anyone gives a gift looking for an "atta boy" or a pat on the back, but good grief, a little common courtesy is always a winner. Not mentioning any names, of course, but rudeness and/or lack of participation are two of my personal pet peeves. For those of you who gifted ME, thank you for two years of wonderful surprises for under my tree. And may everyone have a safe and happy New Year in 2021! |

| I understand your frustration, but the vast majority of participants are great people. It has been a totally crappy year for a lot of people. Sometimes we don’t know everyone’s story. I hope by the time next Christmas rolls around you change your mind and give it another try. This was my first year and there were problems but God willing, I’ll do it next year. | ||

| Sorry for the late post, but the holiday season has been hectic around here to say the least. A big thank you go out to @xkonk for the Frazetta and Corben goodness. I really do appreciate the thoughtful gift. I hope everyone else had as wonderful of a Christmas as I did! 2020 has been a crazy year, but mine ended with one of the best Christmases I've had since I was a kid. At my age, I'll take those blessings when I can get them.   |

| @Tedsaid slow mail and absolutely zero response from the “secret” Santa. Look, I understand 2020 sucked for everybody in some way. At least respond to a DM and say you can’t do it. We’re all adults, we understand things happen, but to completely ignore it bothers me. I participated TWICE this year. Good thing one reciprocated. I still have faith and will continue doing it. What goes around comes around, right?? Merry Christmas all! | ||

 I don't believe this....and I know you don't care that I don't believe this.

GAC private msg quote post Address this user | |
| I think the forum should consider a thread with posted names of people who don't follow through on the Secret Santa and even one's who don't follow through on trades. I got burned last year trusting someone would send me their half of the trade.....never happened. Still annoys me to this day. I would hate for this guy to come back and do it to another boardie. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC I would let the organizer know so this info could be transferred to the next years Secret Santa organizer. If the person in question try’s to jump back in the game the organizer can have a private conversation on why that’s not a great idea. Maybe you have already done that, so pay no mind to this comment. I do think the spirit of the game can be uphold without blowing someone up for their failures. Whether it was intended or not, passing them on inclusion the future exchanges sounds appropriate. |

| @Noblebeast315. That’s exactly why I’m not posting names. I don’t know what someone else is going through. I’m just upset about the lack of communication. | ||
