Messages between Klea and jlandis
I didn't realize I'd have to explain it in words of one syllable. You know I've got stuff I want rid of, and I don't want to just dump it. But it looks like that's what I'll be doing, since I just don't have the time or energy to start AGAIN. So have fun - the entire site is yours. Thank you for what you helped me with over the past months, and goodbye.
I'm sorry you're unhappy, Klea, but you said you could be of help to her. You didn't ask me to stop sending what I had already requested on her behalf. You were kind to help her, and I hope that can feel rewarding.
Mmm-kay... I took your suggestion of someone I could help with collectibles. I scrounge up a respectable amount for this person (angel.gipson)... and discover that some of the ones on this list - that I just made this morning - have been done. Maybe I should just give up. Because except for the ones I'm collecting, I want ZERO extras of the rest of them. It's awfully damn frustrating when I try to work out the logistics, only to be "scooped" by people (and I'm not accusing, just strongly wondering if it could be you or Sylvia) who have access to hundreds of extras and a lot more places to re-home them. Basically, if I say I'm going to finish somebody's sets, just let me get on with it and do it. If I need help, I ask. But to just swoop in (and this goes to whoever else may be reading this and "scoops" people) and wreck plans and agreements... is rude. ... Sorry if you/Sylvia are *not* the people who have done this. But right now I do NOT have a happy!
Oh good -- thank you! That's one of the reasons I'm not comfortable choosing friends for one another. I'm glad you understand and found someone compatible to help! In checking your page, I noted a few things that would help others on my list -- not the purchased items, of course, but some basics I long ago ran out of and had to start begging. With time so short, would you mind looking over a wish list and helping with anything you'd like? Thanks either way!
Thank you for the suggestions. I've sent a FR to angel.gipson, since I think she's the person I can be of most help to in the limited time left and I didn't notice any "iffy" lols that would be crossing my DB. One thing I've always tried to do with the collectibles program is FR or accepts from people with compatible interests, outlooks, or sense of humor.
Sylviag told me about your having items to share and wanting to do it directly. Looking things over, I think you could be the most help to angel.gipson, GoggyWuvr and CerealMom. I don't know any of them outside of noticing they were active, friendly cheezpeeps without collections, but they accepted FR's readily. I'm sure they would yours too. That's really kind of you to want to help them!
That's it exactly, and only Sketchy Bunny eggs and Yaris are like that. I think it's because they were separate sites. I wish they were all like that for folks who really only want certain kinds of sets -- like all kitty or all cute or all memes. Oh well, they didn't ask me! :) Hope it's a good day there!
*ED* You have to send at least 1 item for the set to show up on someone's page. If you don't see it, either refresh the page or clear your cache.
The last 6 I've found in the past 2 weeks came from using the Search function. I don't know if you've used it or not, but if not it's at http://173.174.111.76/cheez/search.php
I love it! Ping, ping, ping! :D
Yep, those Yaris ones are hard to scare up sometimes (I just need 2 more of those - Yarrrrrrris!! and Yaris Clown Car, which of course are the ones most difficult to find). I'll have a look and hopefully find something available. I'm excited today, since I was able to completely finish another person so he's now in Club 82. He told me that his Blackberry phone pings whenever I send something, so it was pinging up a storm a couple of times! :-D
Okay, Klea. I think I'm done with the sends at the moment. I can't promise, because it's kind of a rough day here, but I did my best. Let me know what's sitting here that you need and I'll double-check it. If it's available, I'll send it to you ASAP. The only thing I know I'm holding intentionally is the last Yaris set, and those wait till everything else is in place for someone on my list. Wish I could do better, but I know you understand! Thanks, Jane
Thank you. :)
Hang on till I finish today's sends with what came in overnight and then we'll check what's left. Don't worry about the Cheese. I don't need them for anyone. Use them if you can. Take care.
Ohai - I have 3 extra Cheese, and was wondering if we could make a trade, since you have some extras I've been searching for for *months* (yes, literally). Please let me know! :-)
Message sent.
Ohai - I have a favor to ask of you. I have been looking for Van Halensing and Paranoid Parrot Loops for a LONG TIME, and I see that buyerbware has extras of those. Would you please ask if he would spare them for me? Thanks.
Sent what I knew I could yesterday and will check again when I get started today.
Hi - is there any chance that you could help me out with a few collectibles, please? I'm looking for Serious Cat, Cookie, Ghost Kitteh, I Read Comics, and Alarm Clock. Thanks! :)
I'm sorry you're upset with me, Klea. I sent you items that I had extras of beyond the needs of the groups I've worked on because you've been working hard to help people. I wanted to provide you what I could to help you do that. I must have misread what you meant when you said anything would help. I didn't mean you any harm. When you've asked me for specific things, I've given them to you if I had enough. or pointed you to places they were more readily available. It's all I can do. I'm sorry. As I said, the ones you asked for were usually ones I hadn't collected enough of for the people expecting them of me -- ones I'm hunting down and asking for every day, the same as you. I'm sorry I couldn't make that easier for you, but I promise, that's all I was trying to do.
May I ask why you sent me collectibles I did not ask for, and don't need (having too many of them in the first place)? This isn't the first time - I ask for things in good faith - I'm not asking for people who are collecting as many as they can of each set, I only work on a few people at a time, and I don't dump unwanteds on people without either their having requested them or saying they don't mind being a dumping ground for unwanteds. My goal in this is to help as many of my friends as possible and to end up with exactly 82 sets of my own. If you sincerely want to help me to help my friends, please stop dumping stuff on me I don't need, and if you really don't want to help me with things I do ask for, please tell me and I won't bother you anymore.
I'm sorry, Klea. Those have homes in the collections of a few cheezfriends with trades to make. I don't send everything to them at once so I don't overload them with big lists. I'm actually short on those and more. MessiahMews is headquarters for the Insanity Wolf's Cave of Insanity set, I think. Hope all's going well!
Ohai - May I please have a spare Snoopy Dawg, Rainbow Derp, Piggy Bank of Success, and Lava Lamp? Any help is much appreciated! (do you know of anyone collecting Straitjackets? I seem to have acquired a few more somewhere... ;-)) Thanks. :-)
Oh, I know you do, Klea! I just get frustrated when I can't do more! :(
I appreciate whatever you can do to help. Thanks. :o)
Sent Me Gusta GhostBuster. The rest I requested for the people I'm working on and just haven't been able to send to them all yet. Good job getting so much done! :)
Ohai - could you please spare some collectibles for a couple of cheezpeeps? They need Snoopy Dawg, Van Halensing, LOL Rally Driver, Rage Trashman, Me Gusta Ghostbuster, Lolonardo, 2x Joseph Ducreux, Gonna Hate Kid, 2x Fight Like a Boss, Bacon. Thank you! :o)
I'm sorry. I hate when I can't fill a list. Please let me know if you need any additional places to watch and ask from. I've got a list that will happily take daily requests from your friends too, if they're working on their pages themselves.
That's okay, I'll ask around elsewhere. I'd rather do that than have the possibility of them not seeing a request to FR a stranger in time.
I don't have enough of any of these for my own list yet. Please have these two people FR me and I'll add their needs to my daily scavenging.
