I just wanted to post a shipping update for everyone and thanks to all of you who helped keep things running (desi, dee, daph, Samia, Mocking, and all of you).
The international ship deadline is Tomorrow the 21st for international buddies and the 25th for our domestic buddies. I wanted to re-post the guidelines just so they don't get lost but it looks like this months is already going along smoothly and hopefully we got all the kinks worked out.
1. Minimum 250 posts or 1.0 post per 2 days (want people to be regulars) We started the RAOK as a new board and so many members with less than 250 posts were included (myself as one). For the next season of Raok (July, Aug., Sept.) we will be increasing the number of posts to participate to 500. This will give the new Minkettes time to get their posts up.
2. Regular contributor to respective subforum - ie; only sign up if you are a regular RM boardie please.
3. Must have posted a photo within last 30 days (please make sure you review Vlads how to post pics thread and make sure your camera works. It can be a cell, camera, whatever gets your pic on the pf) You can post pics on any of the threads that are fitting and a great one is the "your RM bags in action" Pics do not have to be of your bags, we have tons of unique threads and you can pick one that works best for you.
4. A set amount for each gift. Right now we have a price limit of $25 per gift (per month I mean). You're allowed to go over that amount once. That is not a minimum, but they should use their judgment for what the minimum should be.
5. Gifts MUST be sent out by the 21st if sending internationally, and the 25tht if sending within your country.
6. MUST PM me at
rmraok@comcast.net with the delivery confirmation/tracking number. This is so that I can make sure everyone gets and sends their pressies and so that if their are delivery issues I can work on them for you.
7. Upon receipt of gift, photos or an update must be posted within 3 days. This is so that we know everyone is participating.
Thank you all for your patience and I am hoping this makes our Raok's run more smoothly. If anyone has any ideas of things to add please feel free to let me know.
Hugs to all of you and like Dorthey said, really "there is no place like home"
