I'll have to side with Jimmy on this. There are a lot of swaps I have no interest in so I just delete them. However I have joined a swap or two after repeated posts. I have also been swap master and feel it is important to post (some) updates to the list. I like to see who has joined swaps that I'm not in. It is also wonderful to see a swap completed, the ooos and aahhhs, the congratulations to the swap master and the friendships a swap has generated regardless of whether I participated or not.
