Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with Freecycle. I'm a co-moderator for the one in our town and our rules are quite simple: keep it free, legal and appropriate for all ages. I suppose when the lists get huge (such as in Portland, OR), the it might seem overwhelming and complicated. They are actually working on becoming an official non-profit group with their own site, getting away from . That will be nice, too.

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 The one we belonged to in Orlando was GREAT also. I guess it just depends on what quality of leadership (or lack thereof) you have. Sorry to hear you had a bad experience too! We're lookin' forward to gittin' involved with the Aiken/Augusta Freecycle group, as soon as we have anything to give away, that is. <VBG> Bron On 1/3/06, organic_homestead <organic_homestead wrote: > > Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with Freecycle.
