Don't want to be a crab but it sure is hard to swap when the same people claim and offer the same things over and over. I stop on here and see the same offers for extended periods of time. Different people make a claim, offer something different to keep the chain moving, then the original swappers claims again and offers the same thing again. Isn't there a limit to how many swaps one person can do in a single day. Or is that too complicated to keep track of? I know I'm not the only person this bothers, just I'm dumb enough to speak up...

No limits per day a person can swap all 7 in one day if they want. There is a 24 hour TOTAL swap time for all offers for the week. There are LOTS of swappers so most people offer several types of eggs. BUT there are only so many chickens a person can have and so many that are laying so they will be the same offers mostly from the same people. I suspect when you offer eggs you will be in the same boat. As the season gets closer to spring egg offers will be changing. I know mine change almost every week.... just depends on what is laying. They do ask that is the tread stalls for an hour or more that you change up your offer if you can but it can stay up for up to 24 hours..... then you can't swap anymore that week.

Any problems or complaints should be directed to the moderator, but thanks for your input.

Disregard that last paragraph about RP, I thought I was on the WYG swap.

But lets do stop arguing before we get in trouble.

Each person has a 24 hour time limit per week, so you won't see any one offer for more than 24 hours per week. I get frustrated on other threads that sit for three weeks, someone FINALLY claims, then the person who sat for three weeks scarfs that offer up and leaves it sit for another month. Thank goodness this one isn't like that at all.

sorry that you're frustrated. there is a limit on the number of swaps people can do in a week...and the week switches over saturday nights so you will see alot of that happenning on Sunday, but once their swaps for the week are gone, then you will get some variety.

hey, at least you CAN claim the swaps! I am in VA so there are only about 5 people I'm actually allowed to claim from and I'm here drooling over eggs that I cant claim because of my shipping regulations!!! Talk about frustrating!
