我没有要抢a大工作的意思，只是昨天翻译完毕，想说放上来献丑一下 虽然板上大部份都是老手了，应该也不需要FAQ的帮助 但还是希望可以做点贡献，让大家对Postcrossing更熟悉 ------------------------------------FAQ--------------------------------------- 【Sending Postcards】 【寄送明信片】 1. Where do I write the Postcard ID? 我应该把Postcard ID写在哪里呢？ For a postcard you sent to be registered, the receiver must be able to read the Postcard ID. Here are some dos and don'ts for writing the Postcard ID. DO: * do write it on the left side of the postcard (direction of text is unimportant) * do write it more than once on the postcard * do double check that you wrote it correctly DON'T: * do not write it under or to the right of the address * do not write it next to the postage 明信片被登记时，收到的人必须能够清楚的看到Postcard ID，以下是一些关於写 Postcard ID的建议： ※写在明信片的左边(文字的方向不重要) ※写上不只一次Postcard ID ※重复检查ID是否正确 ※不要写在地址的下面或右边 ※不要写在邮票的旁边 2. What should I write on the postcard? 我应该在明信片上写什麽呢？ It depends. If the postcard has a picture of your city, you may want to write something about the city. You can also talk about yourself, talk about something funny, or just say hi! It is really up to you to decide what you would like to write; there are no constraints but please be conscious that you may be writing to a child. If you are stuck, here are some ideas about what to write: * your place of residence * yourself * your personal homepage or weblog * your country * questions about the person or place or country you are writing to * information about how the other member can contact you Always remember to clearly write the Postcard ID that is provided to you. The Postcard ID is the only way the receiver can register your postcard on the website. 这因人而异，如果明信上是你居住城市的图片，你可以介绍一下你的城市，你也可以写 关於自己、某件有趣的事、或只是说声嗨！要写什麽可以自己决定，没有任何限制，但 是请记得你有可能是写给一个小孩(不要写脏话或是色情的)，如果你不知道要写什麽， 以下是一些建议： ※你所住的地方 ※你自己 ※你的个人网站或部落格 ※你的国家 ※对於对方或是他的国家的疑问 ※对方可以连络你的方式 一定要记得清楚的写上提供给你的Postcard ID，Postcard ID是对方登记你的明信片的 唯一方式 3. Can I only send postcards? 我只能寄明信片吗？ Well, no. The main idea is postcards, so you have to send at least that. If you are more into letters or just find a postcard too short, send a letter too. If you are into Bookcrossing, you can also send a book if you want to. What you send with the postcard is up to you. No constraints are made about that, but try to use common sense on that one. 不是，我们主要的概念是明信片，所以你至少要寄出一张明信片，如果你喜欢写信或是 觉得明信片太短的话，你也可以再寄一封信，如果你喜欢书本交换(Bookcrossing)的话 ，你也可以寄一本书。除了明信片之外，你可以另外寄其他东西，我们没有任何限制， 但是寄的时候请用一点常识(也就是，不要寄太古怪的东西吧XD) 4. What is a Postcard ID and where can I get one? 什麽是Postcard ID？我可以从哪里取得呢？ A Postcard ID is a little code that uniquely identifies a postcard in the system. It is composed of two parts: two letters (the country code) and a number. The Postcard ID is used by the recipient to register the received postcard in Postcrossing. For each address you request to send a postcard to, a Postcard ID will be given to you. This means only official cards have Postcards IDs (postcards that you have privately swapped with other users cannot be registered). Postcard ID是在系统中用来辨别你的明信片的一组独特号码，它由两个部分组成：两 个英文字母(国家代码)和一串数字，Postcard ID是收到的人用来登记明信片的号码。 你每要求寄出一张明信片到一个地址，你就会收到一组Postcard ID，也就是说只有正 式的卡片会有ID(与会员私下交换的明信片不能被登记，也就没有ID) 5. What language should I use? 我应该用什麽语言写呢？ Probably the safest option is English. When you receive the address to send the postcard to, you will also receive a list of languages that the recipient understands. Try to stick to those. 最安全的选择应该是英文，当你收到地址的时候，你也会在接收者的个人档案中看到他 会的语言，试着用其中一个语言写。 6. How many postcards can I send? 我可以寄几张明信片呢？ Initially you can send 5 postcards. As you exchange more postcards with other members of the site, the number of postcards that you can send (that is, have simultaneously traveling) will increase. This system encourages new users to try out the project while allowing more avid members to send more postcards. For every 20 postcards that you send and have been registered, the number of postcards that you can send will increment by 1. When you reach 100 postcards registered, you will be allowed 1 extra postcard for every 50 postcards sent and registered. For example: If you have sent between 0 and 19 postcards, you can send 5 postcards. If you have sent between 20 and 39 postcards, you can send 6 postcards. If you have sent between 40 and 59 postcards, you can send 7 postcards. If you have sent between 60 and 79 postcards, you can send 8 postcards. If you have sent between 80 and 99 postcards, you can send 9 postcards. If you have sent between 100 and 149 postcards, you can send 10 postcards. If you have sent between 150 and 199 postcards, you can send 11 postcards. If you have sent between 200 and 249 postcards, you can send 12 postcards. ... and so on, in increments of 1 postcard for each 50 you send. This means that if you have sent 21 postcards, you can have at most 6 postcards traveling simultaneously to other members. Once you have reached your limit, the only way to free up a slot to send another postcard is to either have a postcard you have sent be registered or have a postcard you have sent time out (expire) in transit. Postcards expire after traveling 60 days although they can still be (and often are) registered after that time frame. Note: Adjustments to these limits may occur in the future. 一开始你可以寄5张明信片(也就是同时有5张明信片在traveling)，随着你寄出的明信 片增加，你可以同时寄出的明信片数量也会增加，这样的系统可以鼓励新手尝试这个计 画，也可以让比较贪心的会员寄多一点明信片。 只要你每寄出20张被登记的明信片，你可以同时寄的明信片数量就会增加一张，当你寄 出的总数量到达100张时，你每寄出50张就会增加一张。 举例来说： 如果你寄了0~19张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是5张 如果你寄了20~39张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是6张 如果你寄了40~59张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是7张 如果你寄了60~79张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是8张 如果你寄了80~99张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是9张 如果你寄了100~149张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是10张 如果你寄了150~199张，你可以同时寄的明信片数量是11张 以此推类 也就是说如果你总共寄了21张明信片，你可以同时在寄送过程(traveling)的明信片数 量是6张 如果你达到你同时寄明信片总数的限制，你能够空出余额再寄一张明信片的方法是：你 寄出的明信片被登记，或是你寄出的明信片过期。寄出的明信片如果经过60天还没被登 记，就算是过期，但是过期的明信片也是有可能会在期限後被登记 注意：未来有可能会对这些限制做调整 7. I forgot to write the Postcard ID on the postcard I sent 我忘记在寄出的明信片写上Postcard ID Don't worry, the receiver can still ask for help when they receive your postcard. If you would like to make the receiver's life a little easier, just write them a private message to explain that they will be receiving a postcard without a Postcard ID. Include the Postcard ID in the message. 不要担心，收到的人依然可以在网站上寻求帮助 如果你想要让收到的人生活更轻松的话，你可以写讯息给他，并告诉他他将会收到一张 没有ID的明信片，讯息中不要忘了告诉他Postcard ID！ 8. Can I send a postcard after it is already expired? 明信片过期之後我还可以寄出吗？ Yes, absolutely! We understand that sometimes life gets in the way and postcards do not get sent out in a timely fashion. That is okay, you can still send the postcard late. Just make sure that you send the postcard to arrive within a year of the date you requested the address. Also make sure that the member whose address you were given is still an active member of Postcrossing. Once the member gets the postcard and registers it, the postcard will be registered as a normal postcard. 我们明白人生有时候不太顺遂，没办法准时的寄出明信片，这也没关系，你还是可以寄 出你的明信片。但要注意，从你要求地址开始，到明信片被送达之间不能超过一年；你 也要确定那名会员的帐号依然是”在活动中的”(active)，当他收到明信片并登记的时 候，你的明信片就会被视为正常的明信片来登记。 9. What are Expired postcards? 什麽是过期的明信片？ Postcards that have been traveling more than 60 days are set to status Expired in the Postcrossing system. This status allows you to request another address to send a postcard to. Most sent postcards will arrive before 60 days have passed; however, some postcards do take longer to reach their destination. Postcards that have expired can still be registered up to one year after you requested the address. You can see which of your sent postcards have expired by looking at your Sent postcards list. After a period of one year from the sent date, the Postcrossing system deletes the postcard entry from the system. As such, your sent postcards list will not show any postcard that has a travel time greater than 365 days and the postcard cannot be registered by the receiver any longer. 漂流了60天还没到的明信片状态会被设为”过期”，这个状态可以空出余额让你要求另 外一个新地址来寄明信片。 大部分的明信片会在60天之内到达，但是有些明信片会花比较久的时间来送达，过期的 明信片依然可以被登记，只要它还在一年的期限内。 你可以从”已寄出的明信片”(Sent postcards)当中看到你寄出的过期明信片，在寄出 日期後一年，系统将会把这张明信片删除，也就是说，你寄出明信片清单中不会显示任 何漂流超过365天的明信片，而那张明信片也不能被收到的人登记。 10. I mailed the postcard! How do I mark it sent? 我已经寄出明信片了，我要怎麽把它标记为”已寄出”？ The system does not record the date of mailing. Instead, sent date reflects the date that the address was requested. This simplifies the Postcrossing process. The postcard must be received and registered for your Postcards Sent total to increase. 系统不会登记实际寄出明信片的日期，系统显示的"寄出日期"(sent date)是你要求那 个地址的日期，这个会简化Postcrossing的过程。当你的明信片被收到并登记之後， 你的个人档案上的"寄出的明信片"(Postcard Sent)总数才会增加。 11. My postcard should have already been received! What should I do? 我寄的明信片早就应该送到了！发生了什麽事？ Wait! :-) There are several things that can make a postcard take a long time to be registered. Here are a few: * slow postal services * the member is on holiday or temporarily away * the member does not have a home Internet connection * the member did not understand your handwriting and is trying to figure out the ID * the member is not able to check (or does not receive) their mail daily Traveling time depends on the postal system of the respective countries so while some postcards may arrive in 5 days, it is as common that postcards take over 30 days to arrive. If it has been well over 30 days, we advise you to contact the recipient of your postcard through private message and ask whether the postcard has arrived (the ID might be blurred, illegible, etc.). After 60 days, the postcard will be set to Expired status and you will be able to request another address. Be patient, experienced Postcrossers will quickly advise you to do the same - it works! 再等等看吧！有些情况下明信片会花比较久的时间送达，以下是一些可能的情况： ※邮政速度缓慢 ※那名成员目前旅行中或是不在家 ※那名成员家中没有网路 ※那名成员看不懂你的字，正在试着猜明信片的ID ※那名成员没办法每天查看他的信件，或是信件不是每天送达 明信片漂流的时间取决於不同地区的邮政速度，因此有些明信片可能五天就送到，但 有些需要花30天以上，如果超过30天，我们建议你可以寄讯息问那名成员是否收到你 的明信片(明信片上的ID可能糊掉了或是对方看不懂)。当超过60天後，明信片会被设 定为"过期"，你也可以再要求一个新的地址。 耐心的等吧！有经验的Postcrossing玩家也会给你同样的建议的，等待真的有用！ 12. I lost an address, how do I get it again? 我弄丢了一个地址，我要怎麽再取得呢？ If you are having trouble receiving emails from Postcrossing.com, see the FAQ on email problems. Otherwise, you can always retrieve addresses for your traveling or expired postcards on Postcrossing.com. * Go to your Sent postcards * Click the Postcard ID for the postcard you are missing an address for. The address is viewable below the map. Once a postcard has been received and registered, you will not be able to view the address in this manner. 如果你在接收Postcrossing.com这个网站的email有问题的话，请看问与答当中与 email相关的问题，或是你可以在网站上取得过期或是在寄送过程中的明信片的地址 ※前往Sent postcards ※点选明信片的ID 你可以在地图下面看到地址，当明信片被收到并登记之後，你就没办法用这个方法看 到地址了。 ------------------------- http://www.postcrossing.com/help --
