Ungrateful/clueless recipient?

[tripperfunster]

So ... I drew something for an exchange last month, and the person that I drew it for has not commented. At. All.

Now, i know that RL gets in the way, but they've done some random postings in their eljay, none of which mention plague or famine, so I assume nothing horrific has gone wrong for them.

Should I poke them? I'm not sure how to do it without sounding snotty. HEY DUMBASS! THIS TOOK 10 HOURS TO DRAW. YOU COULD AT LEAST TAKE TWO MINUTES TO COMMENT!!eleventy11

Or should I just ... let it go?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not losing sleep over it or anything, but I've waited a MONTH, and nothing .... ... .. ...

not to mention that I never recieved MY gift, but that's a whole nuther story

When that happened to someone else, she poked the mods and asked them to contact the recipient. Which the mods did and the recipient finally commented.

But not getting your gift? That's bad, too.

Hmmm... not a fest I'd want to play in.

It's a pretty casual fest. You get your prompt, and then you post yourself, whenever you're ready. (but before the deadline.)

I'm not mad at the mods, as they've put out requests for pinch hitters.

I ended up just leaving a quick comment to my recipient, just saying, Hey, did you see this?

Nothing yet ...
