Notes & Updates

• 08/16/20 - cleaned up my profile, hadn't swapped in a while

I had two profiles, which I know sounds sketchy. I just want to be honest about it:

• I joined Swap-Bot in 2012 under a pseudonym (Chrysothème A.) but didn't join any swaps. This profile had no ratings yet.
• I came back in April 2017 & accidentally created another profile @berlingotiere with my real name & an alternate address. I had forgotten about the first profile I made. I still didn't join any swaps, so therefore had no ratings, but realized my mistake on 04/23/17 as I tried to correct the alternate address to the original one. I contacted admin to see what to do about this.
• 05/06/17 - I still haven't heard from admin about merging my profiles yet. I had already joined some groups with the second profile but am hesitant to join swaps until I clear up this confusion. I intend to keep @chrysotheme and delete @berlingotiere
• 05/07/17 - I deleted the @berlingotiere profile.
