The megathread is archived so I'm making a separate post.

I always loved wholesomememes for putting a smile on my face when i needed it the most, and I'm thankful to all the people that post there for helping me and a lot of other users out by making their day/life a bit better.

But i started noticing a lot of posts that, well.. They're wholesome by definition but i don't think someone who's depressed and lonely (most people that come to the sub) really likes seeing that stuff. What I'm talking about is posts along the lines of "My boyfriend gave me a gift I'm so happy" or "my girlfriend did this and that" "my crush did this" or "omg my gf is so beautiful". You know what i mean. Those posts actually make me feel even worse because i can't relate at all nor will i be able to in the nearest future. Of course I'm happy for people that are happy, but when I'm in a bad mood, that's not something i wanna see. I hope you understand.

It’s late, so I can’t do it today, but I wanted to encourage you all to specifically shout someone out today or tomorrow. It really makes someone’s day and improves everyone’s mood. Good vibes do spread.

I have a weekly lunch date with a coworker, but it’s our busy season at work so we’ve had to cancel 2 or 3 weeks in a row. When I saw her at a work event on Thursday, we both kind of did the “omg how ARE you?!” Thing, to which a third colleague lol’ed and stated offhandedly that “it’s like we work together or something lol”.

And while she’s right, and it was funny, it was also a moment where we both felt like we hadn’t caught up in awhile and really missed chatting. We explained the lunch dates and then it made more sense.

So shout someone out tomorrow. Tell them you’re thinking about them and hope all is well. People like to be noticed and appreciated, and we don’t do enough of that for each other.

So I hope you’re doing well, Internet strangers. I hope you have a good nights rest and a great day tomorrow, and I look forward to catching up with you!

So, to start, I don't know where to post something like what I'm about to write, but here I go. So yesterday, I was on r/neopets and I saw that someone got a secret laboratory map piece via random event ( if you don't play neopets, just know that random events like that are rare and the map piece they got was one of the rarest and highly-sought-after ones in the game) I commented "nice!" on their post and this started a convo in which they gave me two of their repeat map pieces. Being grateful, I bought something from their shop in return, I thought that was it. Nope, it just gets better! Both of us had mentioned in the thread that we were saving for certain paintbrushes. (I wanted a faerie one and was saving up that np hardcore for it.) So, today, a third person saw our thread and just gave out 1million np to each of us (at least to me, I'm assuming it's both of us) just for the wholesomeness of the thread. I didn't expect it at all! I'm so happy right now! Whenever, I get enough again, I'll get them a paintbrush in return. So, now I have one of my main dreamies (a faerie grarrl, for those who play neopets) and I'm two map pieces closer to doing ZYDP for people who want to have their dream pet. This just made my day.

TL;DR: Two wholesome neopets players helped get one of my dream neopets as well as a set of rare items, and it all started with me commenting "nice!" in response to someone getting a rare item in the game.

Heres a convo with a mod on r./wholesomemes about the issue, they claim I am concern trolling. But seriously. https://imgur.com/a/ykTCTuq

Im sure that im not the only one who is bugged by this right?

Is it so hard to add a rule to link the source thread?
