PSA - Snacky Goodness!

[livejournal.com profile] we_swap_snacks is open for business! And...I'm a co-moderator! (Don't tell [livejournal.com profile] strryeyedgrrl I've never been a mod before... ) ;)

Anyway, this will follow the [livejournal.com profile] snacksters community vibe more than that other, now deleted, snack trading community.

If any of my friends (or friends of friends) want to swap snacks either domestically or internationally, please go and sign up!

[livejournal.com profile] glaelia, I've PM'ed you and hope you'll join as well. :)

What happened to give_me_cake?

Basically, the moderator opened up membership and asked existing members to put their birth date, including year, on their profile so she could ensure the members were 18 or older. Then, a mere four hours later, she freaked out and scolded everyone about it. A lot of people had problems with it for privacy concerns (plus, really, anyone could put a date on the profile and it doesn't mean it's accurate). After a couple of dramatic posts paired with sane comments, she deleted the community. I have to say, though, after perusing what little of her journal was public she seemed like one of those people who thrive on drama. Not a good mix for a community such as snack swapping. I mean, talk about as close to drama-free for LJ as one could (or should) get! :)
