So these so called RAK are actually looking like raffels
if they were really random acts if kindness it would be just that not raffeling off items
But then how do u choose who it goes to? - RickeyCalifornia

The act of kindness is giving it away. We don't have to, we want to. - MagicalCaprice

Last time I entered a raffle I paid for the ticket. I don't think anyone is charging you for a chance to be given free stuff... - Sam241
475.6 #254 9:40PM
agree Sam! - legoalex
123.9 #2668 9:41PM
Duh random means picking a random person who wants it. How do we know you want it if you don't say so on the pot of the RAK? Then it's given away for free and free shipping - minnieMisty
215.8 #1404 9:42PM
You took the words right out of my post Sam. - MayBie
1864.2 #40 9:42PM
Not all raffels are paid to enter
and random acts of kindness should be what the name suggests meaning that you find random people and do acts of kindness for them not raffel stuff - Lou---
6.1 #8961 9:42PM
Perhaps a raffle? - Butterlina
1308.0 #62 9:44PM
Your randomly choosing someone that would potentially like the item and giving it to them for free. How is that not kindness? What if you give something to someone that could careless but someone else really wants it? That's why some people enter RAKs and some don't. Be grateful it's someone giving free stuff. - CxD_CM

Raffle Acts of Kindness on MouseWait are a nice tradition. They represent the true MouseWait spirit and are an integral part of this community. Are they really random, though? - DoleWhipComa

How can you complain about something good that comes from someone's heart? And dolewhipcoma, what do u mean are they random? When I do a RAK I don't sit there and plan it for 2 weeks, it randomly comes about, then I randomly choose a winner using random.org so yeah I'd say that's pretty random - RickeyCalifornia
157.0 #2193 9:54PM
Hahaha @kiss you took the words out of my mouth.... A true RAK would be a spell checker... ^_^ *back to lurking* - MsNick
55.9 #3643 9:54PM
Can someone help me out and RAK me some gas money for these insane prices? Haha. - RyRy
10.4 #6631 9:54PM
Dear Lou - it's a RANDOM Act of Kindness because someone is randomly choosing to be kind enough and give away something to those fellow fans who may be interested in whatever he or she is giving away out of the KINDNESS of his or her heart. It's okay, you will get your ACT someday... - StephiePooh
572.6 #193 9:55PM
@Lou if you don't like how it's done then don't participate. Since I haven't seen you post or hard from anyone about any RAK's you have done this shouldn't be much of a change of pace for you. Thanks for posting though :-) - Sam241
475.6 #254 9:55PM
I'm selfish. I do RAKs because it makes ME happy to give something to someone else. So it's a SAK selfish act of kindness. Lol - PrincessLeanne
146.5 #2343 9:55PM
Like what Rickey said. I mean come on the websites name is random.org. Ransoms in the name. Seems pretty random. - CxD_CM
518.6 #225 9:55PM
P.S. I like Lou...is Vuitton - StephiePooh
572.6 #193 9:56PM
For some of us I think it's extra-random because things are given away to people we have never even met! That's also extra-kindness! Ka-chow! - TandAlly
213.5 #1440 9:57PM
Lou, do I need to block you? - HotDiggityDogDaddy
1112.2 #74 9:57PM
Ok let me get this straight! Random people want to give something away from the kindness of their heart. Random people say I want it. A random number is picked usually using some kind if number picker program. Therefore a random person wins. Sounds like a Random Act of Kindness to this old girl! - sewgirl
340.5 #431 9:58PM
HD3 - you might! - MsNick
55.9 #3643 9:58PM
Uh oh, HD3s bringing out the block button! - CxD_CM
518.6 #225 9:58PM
You're just arguing semantics., who cares what it's called, ride/attraction, RAK/raffle.. WHOCARES?!? - KelBelle

Ugh, kids nowadays. - MagicalCaprice
480.6 #248 10:02PM
So..I have a RAK, but to be entered you have to pay by form of Dole Whip to get a raffle ticket. No refunds, person must be present to win. Void where applicable. Winner will be notified by pat on head. - StephiePooh
572.6 #193 10:03PM
Speaking of RAK, stay tuned for a RAK from the girlfriend and I tomorrow if you're going to the park. - RyRy
10.4 #6631 10:04PM
RAK are awesome, and an excellent tradition. I do not mean to denegrate the process. But when my wife and I are leaving the park, for example, we always try to have a pair of fastpasses to Space or Big Thunder in our posession. We love to give them away to a couple we just happen to see entering the park. They smile and are really happy. It seems a bit more random to me. That's all. Again, RAK are great. Don't beat me up over my odd perspective. - DoleWhipComa
14.4 #5768 10:04PM
I am serious. We can set it all up to look just like a real RAK except you will win. Just make sure you act surprised. Is there a Supercuts around you? Or will my clippers be good enough? - KissDclown
1088.1 #77 10:04PM
Oops....forgot (insert sarcasm emoji here) - StephiePooh

1049.5 #82 10:08PM
@RyRy - that sounds planned. You cant call it a RAK, sorry. Call it a PAK. A park PAK. - PrincessLeanne
146.5 #2343 10:08PM
Anyways we can have just one day where someone doesn't stir something up. *sigh - JediStitch
429.7 #291 10:08PM

1737.8 #44 10:10PM
Where did Lou go? Doesn't it always seem that these people stir up the lounge then leave? - RickeyCalifornia
157.0 #2193 10:10PM
@PrincessLeanne: Is it still a RAK if we don't know what we're going to RAK yet? - RyRy
10.4 #6631 10:11PM
Maybe he left to get a hair cut - Candace
1737.8 #44 10:12PM
I demand a recount!!! Oh wait...you're talking about RAK not voting! Oops! - CaptainJill
42.2 #3934 10:12PM
Remember Rickey, we didn't get it so there was no point in him arguing! - CxD_CM
518.6 #225 10:12PM
@KissDclown, you are cracking me up! I had a sad night and you just made me laugh so hard thanks! - TandAlly

Haha I was thinking Beiber too, but the Beibs knows the difference between a raffle and RAK - Missshelly

Oh, the joys of communicating online, where nonverbal communication cues can't come into play and intended meaning can sometimes be hard to convey. Sure makes for entertaining reading though! - disney42dude(CM)

I know what a RAK is. But, what's a raffel? - Experiment818
1598.0 #48 11:23PM
A raffel is when a person excessively hurls food at children....a raffle is a random selection for a winner - AuzRoxUrSox
901.8 #98 11:26PM

Me Rikie Laffers...Or is it Laffres.....Really though. If you don't like it, scroll past it. Interesting how you were asked what you're RAK was today....and then nothing. Rock on. Or RAK on. Whatever. Meh. Yes, I will say I can see how yo're interpretation of the the concept can seem a bit twisted. No problem. I understanbd where you're coming from. So I have to say good for you for voicing your opinion. Oh I give up. Sorry if this whole thing offends you. - Butterlina
