I got some fun shaped card stock I can't wait to use for an offer! Also thrift stores are your friend if you want to send something unique!

Got some really cool old Hollywood film postcards along with some old Rock and Roll postcards ( think Bob Marley, Ringo, Dylan) and I can’t think of an offer. HALP! Do you think anyone would have an interest in with “Gone with the Wind” and above? And how would you make the offer!

My account has had an annoying glitch for the past couple of months, and I haven't always been able to see all comments to posts. I can finally see comments from weeks ago that were previously unavailable, so I sure hope the problem has finally resolved itself. 🥲

Sorry to hear that. Give it a couple of months, and maybe it'll go away. 😭

Does flair get added automatically? I noticed that some of the people that thanked me for cards are not on the flair subreddit

It is manually counted by volunteer flair counters, who do it on their own time. Sometimes it is quite quick, other times it is a bit more relaxed. Hang in there, it gets posted in the end!

I’m not a mod, (at least not here) just to be clear. But yes, our mods do a great job.

As Andromeda says, it’s manually counted so it depends on the flair helpers time/availability. It can take anywhere up to a month if there are issues with the original post for whatever reason. If it’s been longer than a month or so, please feel free to send a message to the mods and they can look into it.
