As one last quick post before sign-ups, I've already encouraged all of you to read/re-read
the rules (and do again), but just in case you think you can already remember/guess everything I'm gonna do a quick and dirty rundown of things that will get you banned.
The three things that will get you banned
1. Not completing a gift before the deadline (December 22nd, if you need the reminder) without emailing me to let me know you'll be dropping out. If you do contact me before the due date you're free to return, unless...
2. You drop out two years in a row.
(Though for both of these I am willing to be lenient if there are some major real-life circumstances behind them and you contact me about them after the fact; being swamped at work won't do it, but I'm not going to ban you if, say, a parent died on the 20th and you were in no mental state to remember a fandom deadline flying past. Furthermore, if you've been banned for defaulting without notice once you will be allowed to return if you complete a gift for someone from the treat list within the year between exchanges, but do it twice in a row and the ban will be made permanent.)
3. Shaming anyone for their pairings, their kinks, or any other part of their preferences. This is an all-inclusive exchange, and if I catch you mocking anyone involved in it, or if you ignore what your recipient says they want and don't want in their gift, because their taste in fanworks doesn't match your own you will be banned. There will be no leniency for this one.
