you really think you were anonymous? More chance of identifying you by your typing than Royston and that is saying something.

This is not against you my friend, on the contrary, I am just criticizing the hold that some have on this thread: and I am answering to them, Cool! I think that 's it's personnal anyway ( vexations, angriness, no trust etc.. Never saw that in my life, a gift is a gift - we have not to show our payday )
I m more than 62 so please, no moral lessons! I will unbokmarked this thread (and i am not alone to think this - I wont show you private messsages), it's not anymore a Santa it's an alarm! I received stickers last year and I didn't say everything about that ! I sent this same year geat gifts too to my other Santa ! Another year, I had received drawings from an "artist", ok well, erm, I respect ...
I mean, it's Christmas, and I'm not going to send a paypal payment and show the bill to the whole forum. Duty free.
Frankly, - and we can see why the old guard of the forum ( FЯ per example, extremly genrerous as some others, did not take part in this year's Santa - we should almost send the bill.
+ Most of those people (all of them? I won't quote ) are no longer here and share information with each other on Discord, they're just coming back for that Santa, and bragging about their freebies.
A little humility, kindness, sympathy would be good in these difficult times, where each of our governments now already has its king and gives orders to the people! This is not the kind of message we send to a suffering people, when its time to have good time and nice surprise.
So please, no more orders( real orders ) , just only kind advises as yours my friend.
Art became this mercantile thing, flipping etc.. It's sad.
Good nite all

If your SS is near your geographic location, you're ok but if not HO BOYY! hence my ENTIRE reasoning behind starting n ending the SS early, so everybody can get their stuff straightened out then mailed away with time 2 spare, as this is an international SS plus we all know how lax the delivery services have been since covid, PLUS it’s getting on toward the holiday season, slowing EVERYTHING down…. i’m glad at least some of u c the method in my madness…. also i live in a democracy…. i respect the power of voting, so next year y’all want somebody else 2 run it, find somebody ready willing n responsive/receptive 2 take on the responsibility of running the SS, hold a vote on it in this thread, vote me out, vote them in, then let them have the thankless job of trying 2 wrangle 2 dozen strangers across the globe 2 send presents out…. p.s. i have not gotten my gift nor have i cheated 2 find out whom my SS is😤 (there’s an option on the SS site that if i click on, i can view all the matches, god mode basically lol, i have not used it, have no plans 2, unless dec25th arrives n ppl have t gotten gifts, then that info will b public 2 weed out the grinches💪🏻
I think you are doing a very good job. Thanks again!

Similarly, going back to your post from earlier, if you send me a package from the US to the UK you *will* need to declare the contents of the package, and it will then be scanned on arrival in the UK. yes, international packages, i’m talking about inside the country, they still scan n ask those? i’ve never even heard of that happening here…. I think there is a large delta between what freedom you perceive you have and the freedom you have. Internationally, I sent myself 15 packages at around 100lbs each. Three were opened and customs used their tape to seal them back up. I thought that was forthright.
Domestically, USPS is all over you. Fedex and UPS less so. If you ever send a mailing using media mail rate and try to send anything other than books or cd's (can't have adverts in them), you have a 50-50 of being snagged. They scan everything and 100% can identify you (and your handwriting) better than you can. If you mess with it at all, they have a file on you. I wouldn't ever mess the with the IRS or USPS. Ever.
Long story short, if you are bending any rules, better bent with Fedex, DHL, or UPS.
