Okay folks. I'm putting this out here so everyone can see it.
We had a few members get behind on shipping games and also say they were leaving the thread once games were shipped. Kidd and Duffman have taken care of shipping their games and are in good standings.
However two members have not shipped the games out. On 8/30 I sent out this message to the members.

Okay here's where I'm at with the waffle thread.
You all have said you are leaving as soon as the games get shipped out yet no games have been shipped to my knowledge.
What I need is your addresses and please remind me how many games each of you have - I will send a box to you to pack up and I will also pay for the shipping label to send it to me.
At this point I don't care if you haven't played the games or not - I need them for the remaining members. I expect a response and remember I CAN see when you have logged onto XBA.

Neither Grenade nor Orange have responded to this message. I was online while Orange opened the message and Grenade has been online several times since this message was sent. As far as I am concerned these members have stolen the games.
I do not like to moderate nor manage problems publicly because too much chaos can ensue with everyone giving his/her opinion. However I want to make sure that everyone who is part of the thread or considering joining the thread knows that I have not ignored the situation. Some people may feel me doing this publicly is unfair, however to those I say that it is extremely unfair to me for me to have to harass members via XBA and XBL and they will not even take the time to respond to me or take me up on my offer.
I will not remove Grenade or Orange from the thread so we can see which games they still have outstanding. Should they either ship the games on their own or take me up on the offer we will not worry about it and should they want to be on the waffle thread they will be second rotation only and last on the list.
Feel free to discuss it in the forum here but regardless of the actions (or inaction) of these members please do not turn this into a bashing session. I am only doing this as a last resort since they refuse to respond to me.
