I think Blackhawk is probably right. my guess is the people who haven't made bows and haven't contacted anyone probably aren't on the site reading this. They probably haven't been logged on for awhile. It doesn't necessarily excuse their flakiness in the trade but it's likely a more fair image than to assume that they are reading all of these threads, shrugging their shoulders and then checking out the latest bows people made.

Kick em all out no matter what is said or done now. No excuse after this amount of time has elapsed, ZERO. They can keep their bows to. We have enough capable folks offering to build one.........for real build one.

Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

post their names, banish them from future trades, funny thing is anyone i've ever traded with here goes overboard to make shure that they give more than they get, Bub
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.

If these guys signed up for the bow trade they knew the deadline was July 17. It is over a month after that and still no reply. They should be checking in at least occasionally anyway. I have not checked to see if they have been loged in lately but at this point what difference does that make.
 I sent each one a PM and haven't heard a thing back since then. I'll give them another day or two.

Make sure to ban their IP's so they can't make a new account and do it again. Er, I guess that probably happens automatically, right?
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

I'll hunt them down on PaleoPlanet, leatherwall and Tradgang. Everybody will know their Credit Score. >:D And maybe a few phone calls at home. ::)

received the bow I feel like I will.

It is too bad that people who where having a hard time did not say something a few months ago. Many of us would of picked the slack and all of this would not be necessary and Pat would not have to play police with his own time. I am sure he would rather do other things!
