| Quilting Bee Trade Amnesty |

Due to recent health issues, your queen - that's me - has been unable to fulfil normal duties such as chasing up trades and granting hiatus requests. Unfortunately, this means that some members who've been neglecting their quilts have been getting away with ignoring their responsibilities while the best behaved members continue to trade and chat.
To try and give everyone a chance to catch up after what seems to have been a dramatically short summer and a hectic year for studies and work, I'm implementing a trade amnesty to 'forgive' bees who've been unable to trade at various points this year.
If you have not traded since 2007 - and that's a long time, so I hope that's none of you - you must trade at least twice before November 30th, or you will be deleted on December 1st. No additional warnings will be sent to bees, so if you have not traded since 2007, consider this your last warning.
If you have not traded since before April 2008 - you must trade at least twice before November 30th. If you fail to make two trades this month, you will be sent a final warning on December 1st. If you ignore this warning and do not make two trades in the first week of December, you will be deleted on December 10th.
If you have not traded since before August 2008 - you must trade at least twice before November 30th. If you fail to make two trades this month, you will be sent a warning on December 1st. If you ignore this warning and do not make two trades in the first two weeks of December, you will be deleted on December 20th.
Those bees who have traded since August 2008 will be held to the normal one warning + one final notice system and given due time to fix their quilts as a thank you for continuing to trade.
Bees who have request a hiatus will be processed as such, but will be expected to make two trades within one month of returning from hiatus. Bees that wish to leave are asked to please e-mail mail@theqbee.net or use the form in the members area.
Worker bees will be asked not to check your quilts until the very end of this month, to give you every opportunity to fix and trade, and to get yourself back on track and ready for the festive season that is fast approaching us.
Good luck, and happy trading :)

I feel it is only right that I officially announce that, sharing my throne (OK, I won't make too many royalty gags) as of now: Joni #24.
Joni has been in the quilting bee for as long as I can remember. Even prior to me becoming Queen, I remember Joni as being one of the most helpful, friendly bees I'd ever spoken to. She didn't even complain when, after trading, it took me about 6 months to reply to her emails! ;)
Joni has been fantastic heading up the Pixel Team since prior to the departure of Charlotte (who some of you may remember as my other Queen) - she organises the bees that make the beautiful patches we have for activities and the birthday patches you all get every year, as well as contributing her own skills. On top of that, Joni pulled together the effort of the dailybee staff members to get it re-launched in August... a project I hope we can continue to work on and improve as we go along.
Her dedication to the club is inspiring, and I hope that in appointing Joni to this position I can reward her for the work she's done, and she can help me reward you guys for being a part of our lovely club.

Hi!
I looked around, but couldn't quite find any information on this.
I was wondering if there was an LJ syndicated feed for the main Qbee website?
Thanks,

WoooOOOOoooo... It's that time of year again!
Honey is having a ghostly halloween 'tea' party this year and you're all invited. Customise a cup of tea - or in this case, a cauldron of goo - and join in the party. Invite people to your goo party to spread the fun! If you've not got time to go to the party - or maybe you have time for both - why not pixel a traditional trick or treat patch and send that in instead?
Please see the activity page for more info.

Hi guys & gals :3
You should have all received an e-mail about the new site, but in case you didn't make sure you go check it out! Profiles, bee*mail, new integrated control systems for staff bees, etc etc - it's all there, and all waiting to be used.
Note: we will be having a custom bbs system at the new site courtesy of Bubs but it'll take time so the bbs is down at the moment. Please use bee*mail & email if you need to get in touch with anyone. Sorry for the inconvenience.

| The Daily Bee |
[28 Jun 2007|04:01pm] |
The responsibility for the Daily Bee is changing hands to the very capable Joni, who I will be talking with over the next week or so to make plans for its future so that we can start getting it up and running/etc.
In the mean time, if you volunteered to help out before, or wish to volunteer to help now, please leave your details (bee # & url) in the BBS thread along with what it is you'd be interested in doing. Feel free to also ask questions, make suggestions, etc.
