The swap is closed - read the first post for details.

Can someone else host it or would you rather do it somewhere else?

I followed your advice Sternstaub, now I am just waiting for an email

I think. If not I may just advertise for a private Halloween swap

Guys there's no need to be too disappointed, there will be a Halloween swap coming up. We just have some new swap guidelines on the arena, that's all

What do you mean 'there will be a Halloween Swap 'coming up'? Is someone else hosting something like this? How soon? I need all the time I can to find ponies and have them shipped and ship them.

How new are the new rules?

Yes, there will be an arena run Halloween swap. It will be in the next week or so.

Good point - how new are the new rules?
Had I know that before had I never opened a second swap...
It's a bit disappointing for a lot of members now..

I just looked over at the swap rules and I didn't see anything new there or any updates for many months.

partypony566 · « **Reply #84 on:** August 08, 2012, 04:16:37 PM »

That's because they are not in there yet. We are putting them in place as of now.

Same here!

The point is that I was told now that I can't host 2 swaps at the same time..

The springing point is - last summer I hosted the Color Swap + a separate Newbie Swap + the Advent Calendar Swap started just a few weeks later - there was absolutely no problem at this time...

Also to pinted out - there never went anything wrong with my swaps - no missing boxes etc...

And today I hear about "new Rules".
Sorry - but that is really new to me...and at the moment I have a feeling it's against me..or against my swap idea.

The whole point in "new" rules is that they are "new" and they will be posted for everyone as soon as possible.

The matter has been discussed with the swap host who has kindly agreed to close the swap - thank you for this Stern its appreciated

As Party says keep an eye out for new information and for an arena led Halloween swap which will be open shortly. There is no need to be disappointed just because one swap is closed does not prevent anyone from reapplying to another.

No one has done anything wrong but the matter was discussed with the swap host who has kindly filtered this on to her swap participants and that is really as much as needs to be said.

hotharcat - did I had a choise?
When the mods say there are new rules I must follow them...

But anyway if there is another swap or not - I still feel sad and disappointed...also this swap was open since 5 days now..and today I hear about new rules..

I guees anybody else would think "what's going wrong here"..

Are there more new Rules we need to know?
Just in Case..

Acutally I can't imagine that being the case. There have been some problems in other swaps though and maybe they are just trying to come of with some new rules to help things go a little better for everyone. I know for myself I have been hoping a few things would change to protect people in the swaps they enter. Hugs, its not fun to have to close a swap. I have to say though that its tough when you have no warning right when you start a swap. Yikes

I understand there is some disappointment here but the new rules have been a work in progress as Party and Cat mentioned.

It is nothing against Stern or anyone else involved in this swap. Please do not take it personal.

An Official Arena Halloween Swap is in the works.

So keep your eyes out for it!
