If everyone is aware and has no problem with it, I won't stand in the way. I would like to hear more from the rest of the folks participating. I would just hate for someone to get a box of overpriced Macanudos. Not because JJ is a bad guy, just from inexperience and lack of sources. Perhaps if JJ agrees to run his package past you before he ships? It makes me nervous though.

I have to say I'm with Shagaroo on this one. It's not a slam on JJs character or anything but with him being so new he's an unknown variable. And something like Secret Santa can be completely ruined by a questionable package or someone not sending.

Yeah, I'd have to agree. Spend some time here, participate in some trades and PIFs and whatnot, and build up some credibility.

Don't feel left out, though... Most of us spent a long time here before we even got involved in trading...

I'm going along with Shag on this too.

Welcome to the board JJ. Hang around, ask questions, get in the PIF, newbie sampler, etc. Don't take this as a comment on your character - there's a lot of solid folks here. Give them a chance to get to know you.

I agree with Shagaroo, maybe we should limit the Secret Santa to Senior Members only?

I agree with Shagaroo too and welcome to the board JJ Westbrook!

Don't worry, there will be more opportunities down the road to partake in. For now, stick around, contribute and get to know everyone. Good times ahead...

Ok. I am going to go ahead and call it. Sorry JJ, not this time. But don't take it personally. We are looking out for our fellow BOTL here. Something you will come to understand if you stick around.
