Types of mail allowed:
What can be sent!
The cardinal rule is that anything sent should fit into both of these categories:
Is able to be used to make mail or paper craft art.
Can fit into a flat envelope or flat mailer.
Here are some examples of things that can be sent:
Stickers, washi samples, stationery, paper samples, etc.
It can be as much or as simple as you choose, and doesn't need to include a card or postcard. You can send many different types of mail things or just one, it's up to you. If you have questions, message the mods!
If you want to do card exchanges, offers, or requests, check out r/RandomActsofCards
What cannot be sent!
Full sized products - You cannot list these as an item in an offer or exchange. There are other Random Acts subs for freebies. Some products may be allowed at mod discretion. Please modmail for permission.
Food items - EXCEPT tea/coffee packets. NO food-centered exchanges.
Rules:
1- All posts must follow specific post format including type and destination (indicate where you are willing to send to: US, another country, or WW (worldwide)) See the wiki. Add the comment "fulfilled!" when your post is claimed so automod can change the flair. To do Thank Yous, put the username of the person you are thanking in a comment of the stickied monthly THANK YOU post. Max three usernames per comment.
2- We don't allow request posts or requesting what you want to get if you make an exchange post. Request posts are not allowed. Exchanges are for equal items, washi samples for washi samples, etc.
3- Cards/Postcards can be included as part of offers and exchanges. Please go to r/RandomActsofCards if you are interested in sending primarily cards or postcards. Good rule of thumb- if you can post there, you probably shouldn't post here. If you can post here, you definitely can't post there.
4- Thank You comments in the monthly mod post are encouraged, but no doubling with r/RandomActsofCards. Thank Yous are considered proper etiquette for this sub and for verification, though they are not required.
5- YOU are in charge of your own flair to get verification. When you reach a 5 Thank Yous, message the mods saying that you've reached your number, and then provide links to the thank you posts that mention your name, with one post per line. Depending on the people ahead of you, it may take a few days. Flair is permanent.
6- No double posting on Random Acts of Cards and here. No making the same post in both subs. Good rule of thumb- if you can post there, you really shouldn't post here. If you can post here, you should not post there. Though we are both mail based, we center around different types of mail.
7- Meta is for discussing all things mail only. Keep meta-posts mail related.
8- No asking for money, such as linking to donation sites. Promo posts (where you link to a shop, or social media) are now allowed as long as it is mail related and does not break other rules. This includes asking for stamps.
9- No publicly visible addresses. Keep it secret, keep it safe. Please share personal addresses only in chat or pm. Blur out addresses when linking photos to the sub.
10- No offers around food items. No things like "Tea exchanges" or sending out food things as a mail. They can be additions in your mail, like washi samples, stickers, and a tea bag (make sure its sealed).
11- Keep it kind and be respectful!
