    Hmmm.......do you have anyone on the board who could vouch for your trading history? There are plenty of splits, trades and passes to be a part of each year - the easiest of which is to participate in a Newbie Sampler Trade. Every once in a while, there are other exchanges, trades, or splits for you to participate in. I'm sorry, but without anyone vouching for you, I'm not comfortable with allowing you in this year - but I'll open this up to the other members of the pass if they have anything to say on this.

    First off, I appreciate the response... I have no vouchers yet but I thought I'd ask... If the other members also dont feel comfortable, I understand! I was thinking about putting a contest together to build some "street cred"... That way, no one has to put anything out there and hope the get their trade or whatever in return... I want to show that I am here for the right reason, and want to stay... Thanks again!!!

    Might not be my place, but I don't feel that the Secret Santa is the best place for your first trade/pass on the board. Remember, there is always next years' SS!

    Just my thoughts.
    Yay! Cigars!
