General Rules

Be kind and keep it respectful. Anyone can post here to either give or receive a card no matter the reason big or small.

We are strictly a card-sending subreddit. No letters, penpals, ecards, or photos (including "X's love is so wide it reaches Y"), supply exchanges (washi tape, tea, stickers, seeds/gardening), gift exchanges, gift cards, trading cards, etc. Please check out the related subreddits in the sidebar if you are looking to request/send anything other than cards.

Thank you posts are strongly encouraged. Put the username of the person(s) in the title or in the body of your thank you post.

There are no limits on the number of cards you can offer/ exchange/ request. We encourage you to be considerate of others and give everyone a chance to claim offers.

Be smart about posting personal information. We require sharing addresses through PMs. We do not allow addresses in the body of a post or in publicly visible comments.

User Flair Count Rules: You can only be flaired for cards and postcards you send. Any other gifts such as letters, notes, washi tapes, stickers, ect, will not be counted towards your user flair.

Picture Posting: r/RandomActsofCards only allows text posts. To post a picture, link it from an image hosting website (such as Imgur) in the body of your post. For user privacy, all visible addresses and real names must be covered or edited out of any pictures posted.

Do not share another person's personal information. This includes addresses and medical information that is not your own. We do not allow any pictures of, or links to, user-created maps (such as ZeeMaps) that contain personally identifiable information of others (such as username, initials, or addresses.)

No promo posts. Please contact mods first if you think it might be relevant to r/RandomActsofCards.

See Wiki FAQ page and General Rules for additional info.
