Okay, let's make it official. @DVMDream and I are running the Secret Santa this season, and we want to get things rolling. Here's the low-down. If you don't know what Secret Santa is, here is a link to last year's December Santa thread - read it and you will understand.

1. Surveys have all been completed! Please watch for a PM about your 'Santee' this weekend.

2. If you signed up, FOLLOW THROUGH. Or else! It's only fun if everyone gives AND gets a gift. You may be publicly shamed if you flake. You are warned.

3. The shipping deadline is December 15th. If you have not shipped by this date, we will send you 500 messages a day until you ship it. Not really - I don't have time for that - but really, try to ship on time for Christmas. That's the point.

4. Gift value is set for $25 (including shipping). You don't have to be precise, but... no need to go overboard. Handmade things are fine as long as they match your person's likes!

Once you are assigned your person, you should let us know when you ship the item and provide a tracking number if possible. And, as a recipient - make sure you (or someone you trust) will be at the address you give between December 15 and December 30!

Please use the thread that I send you the survey link in for all future communication - that will make it the easiest for @DVMDream and I to coordinate and keep track of things. Thank you!

I will keep the sign up list and status updated here once established:

Saw this after I posted in the other thread. Here's my cardboard hound who loves to destroy cardboard of any shape or form

How long after making a new account do members have to wait before getting access to messaging on here? That may be a roadblock for brand new folks like @clr12 - just wondering the timeframe? (It's been a looooong time since I was a n00b ;) )

Goooood question. I have no clue. I've honestly been on this website CONSTANTLY over the last few months but finally took the initiative today to make an account. Seems like it's long overdue for me as an undergraduate senior. I also just don't have much to add most of the time because i'm afraid to be wrong or offend someone and whatnot.

I'll see if there is a *time* limit, and you work on getting 10 posts and double check your settings to make sure there's no other reasons that I can't send you a personal message.

Oh, and welcome. :)

Fear not! We tend to offend everyone all the time and it’s okay! Welcome!

Something like 10 posts? Maybe??? Haha. Sometimes too have to make sure PM isn't on private for the people messaging.
Just kidding. Pming single user is allowed with no limit. Adding things like attachments/images are from more posts as well as adding more peeps to convos. There is always becoming donor for some instant as well

So it should work right away? So it's a setting that @clr12 needs to check?
yep. Should be able to PM a single user instant like. Like I said, some people have a setting that only friends or something can PM, so the PMee also needs to be able to take all PMs

Should we add :beaver: or :horns: to ourselves? Or are twelvetigers and DVMdream adding those?

I never updated mine, so I assume they're doing it on their own as the surveys are received.
