Should I just sit tight and hope for the best? Is this a reasonably common occurance and I'm just being impatient?
Many thanks

Hi Goffie,
As Admin has said on a number of threads, good communications are key to the site's success.

Most Members follow our three/six days guidelines with regards to updating items (see post at top of all the Givers' forums), but some may not do so for a number of reasons. For example, they may be busy with family or work-related matters, have limited access to a computer and/or internet trouble, or be simply forgetful.
My advice is to sit tight for now. If no response is forthcoming within a few days, forget about the item and move on. Admin can control what happens on the Public Forum -- it is the responsibility of Givers and Takers to manage their own communications for their mutual benefit.
Regards
Chris P
