Mod Post [Mod Post] ONLY RAoC Activity in Thank You Posts PLEASE

Upvotes

IMPORTANT NOTICE RE: THANK YOU POSTS

Recently, we have had an influx of thank yous for users who do not participate in RAoC, as well as thank yous for offers/exchanges from other subreddits such as r/RandomActsofHappyMail,r/postcrossing, r/penpals, etc).

We only allow RAoC activity on our thank you posts. Our Flair system is not for participation from other subreddits.

As a reminder, every single thank you that is posted is manually tracked as Flair by a small group of volunteers who give their time and energy to the subreddit. When non-RAoC activity is included in a thank you post here, it creates significantly more work for the Flair Helpers and Mod team. This is not what RAoC Flair is intended for.

Please only thank people for cards that were received directly from this subreddit. If it is suspected that you have thanked a user from activity outside of the subreddit, you will receive a message from the Mods. Repeat offenders run the risk of being banned from participating here.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them as a comment below and we will respond. Alternatively, feel free to send us a modmail.

Thank you,

Your dedicated Mod and Flair Helper teams

Hello friends! I went on vacation back in August and although I sent a lot of post cards while I was there, I bought so many....

If you would like to receive a postcard from my vacation destination (and hear something random about my vacation), please fill out my form. The form will close when it hits the submission limit.

Thank You [Thank You] September mail ✨ Pt. 1

Upvotes

u/slashnatt - thank you for the travel-themed postcard!

u/panda-pac - thank you for the botanical postcard. Pumpkin sourdough sounds delicious 😋

u/juttababie14 - thank you for the floral postcard and finding a card with my fave flower on it! Would love to see a whale shark in person one day, they sound awesome

u/milopfrog - thank you for the sweet kitty postcard!

u/ninajyang x2 - thank you for the two awesome butterfly postcards. I adore the hummingbird stamps, I didn't know there was so many different types of hummingbirds!

u/owlflyinghome - thank you for the St Louis postcard. So cool you got to see an Australian band in the US

u/credo99 - thank you for the cute Pingu card. I especially love the gold foil details of the autumn leaves. The Fukei-in is lovely as well. I'll be visiting China next year (my first time). I really hope it's not too overwhelming as I also do not speak the language haha

u/pumkinseed100 - thank you for the amazing O'ahu postcard. I love the way the wave frames the sun in the photo!

u/TroubleNo5402 - thank you for the Indian cultural postcard! I think a couple of the stamps must have fallen off on the journey over, but one still managed to stubbornly stay attached 😄

u/sergeant_bean45 - thank you for the cool vintage car postcard!

u/Impressive-Rest-1952 - welcome to RAoC! Thank you for the animal postcard and the cool stamps on the back. I joined a bit over a year ago, and it definitely is absolute fun!

u/Ok-Leg-3951 - thank you for the bookish postcard. So cool that the book you mentioned (Hospital) is one I read last year!

u/stephkempf x2 - thank you for the Aztec Ruins postcard, and the lovely vintage bird card. The 3D fox sticker is so cute!

u/FeistyNoodle - thank you for the Alcatraz Island postcard and the cute blue doodle!

u/elixan - thank you for the postcard. I love the motif on the front and the phrase - 'try again, fail again, fail better'. I relate to your message so much. I reckon a lot of people would still say I'm young but I feel a bit old inside. There were a lot of changes in my life this year, so I think that also has a part to play with why I feel this way. I wish I had tried making more friends when I was younger, but I'd like to think it's never too late!

u/andyismean - thank you for the Fifa world cup postcard. Kind of cool that your postcard managed to arrive in pristine condition - no postmarks from either country or even any scratches or smudges!

u/YukiNoAshiato - thank you for the Enhypen concert postcard! I went to my first kpop concert this year which was such a cool experience :)

u/Ok_Theme7072 - thank you for the vintage postcard!

u/t3ctim - thank you for the Salvador Dali postcard. How is the NT? It's the only state I've never visited. Sorry to hear about your knee, but glad you got through the operation relatively unscathed haha. Here's to hoping it all resolves soon

u/Sable__ x3 - thank you for the Studio Ghibli cards, they're from all my favourite films! Lovely decorations, and your handwriting is soo neat. No seasonal meals but I love having bacon on bread in the mornings, and when strawberries are in season I buy a ton of them because they're my favourite. Pressed pennies sound cool! I collect stamps and coins. It's so fun to come across one I haven't seen before :)

u/inkyfingerspgs x2 - thank you for the stationery park postcards, washi and sticker. So cool that you vend. What do you sell? I've never been to a stationery show unfortunately but I would loooove to go one day. I've always wanted to attend one in Japan but the dates never lined up for me. Maybe some day!

u/awachob - thank you for the sticker-bombed card and stickers!

u/smonikkims - thank you for the handmade card, the origami heart is adorable! And for the awesome stamps! I see much the same behaviour in pigeons over here haha. The other day I saw some crested pigeons with the male trying to chase after two other females in the middle of the road. He kept trying but it was so funny because the females were clearly not having it!

u/PuddlePirate2020 - thank you for the ocean-themed mail! If I could travel anywhere, I'd want it to evoke wonder or curiosity in me. Or somewhere that makes me feel calm or at ease, like a second home

u/hapa1720 - thank you for the gold foil animal card! I'll have to listen to the song you mentioned. Personally, I think it's inevitable that honeymoon phases end. Not just with people, but I think it could also apply to other things in life, like new interests. There will be a time when the passion or excitement for something dies down, but I reckon it's the phase after that's important that decides whether something is sustainable and compatible in the long-term. Anyway, that's my two cents 😉

The first cards reached me, when some people still asked to send something. They are of course from nearby, but you three were incredibly fast with sending, too.

I am very unhappy not to be able to mention this one sender from the netherlands. I went through posts and chats and couldn't find identifying hints. So I hope you see this. If you sent tea with your card, please answer.

Thank You [Thank You] Early September thank-yous

Upvotes

Many thanks to the following people:

u/HowDoIReadPlsHelp: Thanks for the lovely thank-you card. I suppose your boyfriend is still on his work trip (you'd mentioned "next few months" in your original post). I hope you've been doing well regardless and getting to speak to him when the two of have time.

Seattle meet-up attendees: Thanks for the whimsical postcard! Hope you all had a great time. u/sommeil_sombre, u/ninajyang, u/TigerLady13, u/rare_cranberry_7861, u/steph_peregrine, u/morticia_devine

u/birdiebennett: Love the watermelon card! How funny that your mom had gotten a tattoo without there being a meaning behind it! I think that may have been more common in the past. I think people (well, me, at least) are more conscious about getting something meaningful especially when there are so many excellent tattoo artists. You should try a temporary tattoo sometime! I do still see those for sale.

u/stephaniehong: Thank you for the vintage Chicago postcard! I'm sorry you didn't really enjoy NYC. As I've gotten older, I've come to prefer the pace of life where I am now. I'll get into Manhattan a handful of times a year to see friends, but at the end of the day, I'm happy to return home. I do wish I could see more shows, but Broadway has gotten so expensive! Were you able to get discounted tickets to shows?

u/pinktothebone: Thank you for the card! Enjoy your journey to 1,000 thank-yous!

[REQUEST] Birthday Cards

Help me surprise my husband for his 41st birthday! 🎂📬

My husband turns 41 on September 17, and I’m hoping to fill his mailbox with birthday cards from different places!
He’s currently dealing with an illness, so I really want to make this birthday special and give him some extra reasons to smile. ❤️ He loves farming, the outdoors, nature, and anything along those lines. 🚜🌲✈️🌊

Here’s the fun part: I’ve already anonymously sent him a few things, and he’s determined to figure out who’s behind it. 😂 I’d LOVE to add to the mystery with cards showing up from people he doesn’t know!

Feel free to sign your card, include your city/state, or keep it completely anonymous and mysterious. 😈😂
If you’d like to send one, please comment and I’ll PM you the mailing information.
Thank you for helping me make #41 one he’ll remember! ❤️
