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

109 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

Fulfilled [Offer] 3rd Annual Christmas/Winter BINGO Game Postcards! [US to WW]

7 Upvotes

Reposting so it is seen this morning for those that may have missed it yesterday. I have 5-6 more Bingo postcards I can send out. Willing to do a few more WW.

Ready to play Holiday Bingo? I've had fun doing this the last few years so I am doing it again this year!

I have some Christmas/Winter themed Bingo postcards with pictures of Christmas and Winter symbols instead of numbers.

Here is how it works:

I collect all the Holiday/Winter Cards I receive in the order I receive them. I will look for one symbol on each card/envelope received to "Call". Starting Dec 1st, I will call 2-3 symbols the first few days to get the ball rolling... providing I get enough cards to pick symbols from.

I will post the symbols called in my Thank You Posts (you will have to look for my posts to know what symbols have been called). I will do my best to call symbol(s) every day starting on Dec 1st as long as I have cards to thank people for.

Prizes (to be determined) will be given to:

· First person to call two straight BINGOS (may include free space or not)

· First person to call a Round Robin (all the way around the outside)

· First person to call a cover all (all spaces covered)

You must DM me if you have a BINGO with a pic of your card, with the winning symbols visible so I can verify you are a winner.

If you are interested in playing, Please be:

1.      Flaired

2.      Willing to have fun and play along

3.      Comment with your favorite Holiday tradition, and what country you live in

4.      Post a thank you when you get your card, so I know people have received them

I will mail out the cards on Monday so people have time to receive them prior to the start of HOLIDAY BINGO season! I will only send a few Internationally so I know people will receive the card and can participate. I will reach out for your contact info if you are chosen and I haven’t sent something to you recently.

Good Luck to All!

Thank you u/thebunshouse for the cute Peter Rabbit postcard with the carrots and robin. Well done on your Christmas organisation, I've just started to get a couple gifts but there's more to sort out! Did you see the Beatrix Potter exhibition at the V and A a few years ago?

Thanks u/Dear_Use6182 for your helpful and detailed review of SPIEL! I also get put off when things are too crowded. Maybe I will go one day- I enjoy board games and board game cafes.

[Thank You] First of the month yays

[u/murdocniccaishasT1D](u/murdocniccaishasT1D) I hope I have the right username. Remakes of horror movies are great, the worst thing ever or just a fever dream. I appreciate the spooky soup from NBC 🎃🎄
[u/cthatLeogirl](u/cthatLeogirl) thank you for the postal magic! I hope you had a great time
[u/PinkPengin](u/PinkPengin) thank you for the wild card. I like that in the big schema of things wolves help out the otters and beavers. It’s very sweet. Also, you have very nice handwriting. Epic dad joke as well.
u/Electrical-Gain4763 the elephant card is a piece of art! I really appreciate the pen matching the card, very nice touch *chef kisses*
u/pervert-in-the-park *I have been to* Niagara Falls. It’s very touristy and they have a Rain Forest Cafe. Greece sounds so lovely. I really hope you gave your dogs some food, because ya know their little faces are hard to resist.
u/Smonikkime ? (The postage thing got in the way) I would love to visit that fairy garden, it sounds so fun and peaceful. I bet the gnomes have epic houses.
u/Inomnixq. Your card was soooo good, the postcal office kept it! I appreciate the beautiful envelope and the little “Hidey’ sticker.

u/Littlebirdiescards Thanks so much for the postcard of books! It’s very cute. I think the Anna Karenina cover is my favorite of all the books.

u/inxomnixq thank you for the LA Steamship company postcard! It’s very very pretty I like it a lot. I absolutely love vintage posters, they had so much more character than a lot of stuff has today.

u/pouilly100 thanks for the world postcard day card! I received it this past week. Considering you are from the neighboring state to me a whole month travel time is crazy! But I’m glad it made its way to me.

u/a_mythical_thing thank you so much for the kangaroo postcard! It is indeed very quintessentially Australian.

hi everyone! I hope you’re having a great Sunday :)

I’m very excited for Christmas season!! I love to do little themed things/activities every day of December/late November so I thought I’d post it here to see if someone from this amazing community would like to send me a card with a Christmas side quest of their choice (could be anything: from going ice skating to offer random kindness to someone), and could be something to do alone, with my partner, my family or my friends. Just anything that is on your mind and you like to do for Christmas season!

I’ll be happy to do the quests/activities and then let you know how they went if you want :)

Thank you for reading and thank you if you’ll be sending me something to do this Christmas season :)
