New Swappers - please read this first before you post on this board
Hi
We are real keen on seed swapping here. We love it and it's how many of us expanded our range. However, many of us old timers have been duped over the years with promises of seeds that never arrive.
So, to solve this problem we put a decision to the members of the site - and we came up with a list of rules to stop good swappers being taken for a ride.
For a historical perspective: you can read the various old threads here on the board; but for brevity's sake... the main rules are
If you have been here less than a month or have less than 50 posts, we advise that members do not swap with you.
If you post on seed swaps asking for seeds and after being told about these rules, you continue - then you will be banned.
All we ask is that you give a little to the community and stick around longer than it takes for receive your 'free' seeds.
We also advise the person who has been here longest to wait until they have received their swaps before sending the seeds that they are swapping to the newer person.
So, if you are new, please adhere to these rules and I'm sure you will expand and enhance your seed collection, and we hope that in time, you will join in on one of our circles and get into seed saving if you don't already do so.
If you have any issues with these rules, please approach a moderator and we will explain the situation to you in more detail.
