re: Points policy change thoughts

I really enjoy bookmooch and as for my lack of mooching I would blame the browsing system for France .I am an english book reader and find myself having to scan by person each inventory to see who is posting books in english and who is posting books in french.If there could possibly be away to seperate by country and then language , that would be an huge help for me.As far as mooching internationaly I try to avoid due to the non ecological side of it. If someone does mooch from me internationanlly I send ,luckily France has a special rate for sending out internationally.
I feel like the point once the book is recieved may be a good idea. I personally have not yet had any problems with not recieving books, though this may be that our english book community is smaller.I also agree with not being able to mooch until having noted recieved articles, its seems like the minimum.
It does seem like when I find a book that I want it is already on 10 wish lists
I feel also that when amazon can sell used books for .69 cents sometimes I too just buy instead of waiting, it depends.As stated by some just earlier it costs more for us to send within france than internationally,
yet this does not discourage me a book lover willing to share, though some times when I put new books up I can't afford to send them all out, when I put the good ones they are gobbled up, understandably so . Well thanks again and I like this idea of taking opinions. Keep Mooching!!!!
