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

100 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

Offer [Offer] Mailing list for rest of 2026 💌 [WW]

30 Upvotes

I thought it would be fun to create a little mailing list for the rest of 2026, instead of making new offers every time I feel like writing and I’d love to have one post I can keep coming back to whenever I’m in the mood to sit down with some cards 😁
The cards will be a little mix of everything! Some might be postcards, others might be greeting cards in envelopes. It’ll all depend on what I have available and what I’m feeling inspired to send!

If you’d like to receive some happy mail, please comment below with:
- Your country (so I know where I’m sending!)
- A writing prompt (anything you’d like me to write about! Or simply say “surprise me!” if you’d rather let me choose.

I’ll reach out via DM whenever I pick someone to send a card to, so please don’t send your address unless I ask!
Just a little heads-up: This is an ongoing offer, so cards will be sent randomly throughout the rest of the year, whenever I have the time and inspiration

Request [Request] Would love to recieve some Postcards [Pakistan]

10 Upvotes

After going through some of my grandfather’s old letters and postcards from his penpals, I realized that I want to leave behind a legacy too.

Little pieces of my life that, someday, my grandchildren or relatives might find and get a glimpse of who I was or how I lived.

I used to be a minimalist, but now, I’ve started to see things differently.

I want to collect things, create a space that truly feels like home, and leave traces of my existence behind.

u/Ok_Theme7072 - thank you for the pink postcard with the well wishes on it, it’s much appreciated. Getting cards is definitely the best bit of having this procedure! 😅

u/Okioki08 - thank you for the WPD postcard, it’s lovely! Please don’t apologise for the lack of stickers, the washi tape you used was so cute! I loved the little animals with golden embellishment!

u/Pretty-Resolve-8331 x2 - thanks for exchanging with me, the 2 vintage postcards you sent are so lovely. I do love reading, I recently finished I’ll be Gone in the Dark which is a true crime book. Next I want to read an old gothic horror for Halloween. Halloween is absolutely celebrated here in the UK! I’ve just got back from Yorkshire and there were so many houses done up with spooky trimmings 👻 But I don’t think it’s as big a deal here as in North America to be fair. Thanks again!

u/Sension5705 - thank you for the super-cute Halloween card, I love the black cat and the ghostie hanging out in their RV! And the little trick-or-treat bag is so sweet of you, I especially like the tattoos! Thanks 🎃

u/BubblySunflowers - thanks so much for the Halloween card, you’ve spoiled me this year and I’m so grateful! I love the pumpkins so much, they look so sweet 🥺 Your fall and Halloween experiences sound amazing, I’m glad you had fun. And thank you for all the cute fall and Halloween stickers too 🎃🧡

Priority goes to those that have recent thank-you posts, but am ok with sending to newbies that haven’t posted any thank-you’s yet but promise to.

Here’s what the card will look like since I can’t use that one photo site anymore that everyone on here uses 🙃: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfeLu-_jkO9p8ZwGnDepA5G1OGFGKoILjMpgz7yKfXihwXAYA/viewform

Decided not to do an actual form. I will reach out to people individually (I think I have 20 of these or so? Almost forgot I had them printed a month ago💀 will double check later)

Just state in the comments if you’re in the U.S or WW and please include your prompt for the card :) can be Pokemon related or anything really! Love a good creative prompt.

I’ll mark this post as fulfilled once I choose people and then reach out to you via DM within 24 hours! Will mail these out on Halloween 🦇

Request [Request] Birthday postcards from around the world for someone special [China]

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone! 🌍💌

I'm a university student from China, and I'm preparing a special birthday surprise for a girl who means a lot to me. Her birthday is December 9.

I was inspired by a story about someone collecting postcards from around the world for the person they loved. I'd love to create something similar for her.

I'm hoping to collect real postcards from different countries, each carrying a little birthday wish or a few words about the sender's hometown.

If you'd like to help, please leave a comment! ❤️

I'm currently arranging a P.O. box in Xining, China, and I'll share the mailing address privately once it's confirmed. I completely understand if you'd prefer to wait until then.

I hope to give her all the postcards together on her birthday.

Thank you for reading and for any kindness you're willing to share. I wish you all happiness, love, and beautiful days ahead! 🌷

The halloween post card is so beautifully dark! I did a deep dive on the artist, Samuel Schmucker and found how special his art and post cards are! I love art and art history!
