☼ The Gift Gathering Forum Directory ☼

I've been feeling those days that the forum was very very busy, with tons of thank you threads, hundreds of contests, drawings, lotteries and everything..

So busy that sometimes you just want to check one or two threads, because you're busy too and you can't find it!

So I thought I might be a good idea to have a thread listing all those threads, that can be use when you don't have time to browse the forum, or for new participants.

I hope this is a good idea - you'll tell me - and that this is going to be helpful.

And yes, Reach, your thread definitely inspired me

So you can find :
