Getting to 10,000 Posts #4217: Bunnies Randomly Chatting in 2023
 Banner by Sweet Embrace "  , DON'T  !"Intro: Welcome! This is the Getting to 10,000 Posts Thread, otherwise known as The Bunny Thread. The purpose of this thread is to discuss your current posting goal, whether it be getting to 10,000 posts or getting to 1,000 posts. It also serves as a place to celebrate your posting milestones every time you reached a certain posting goal. This thread is called The Bunny Thread because working towards a posting goal is like the Energizer Bunny who keeps going and going and going... All members of this thread are considered bunnies. In order to become a bunny, you have to have 30 or more posts on one of the "Getting to 10,000 Posts" threads, or 10 or more posts on three different "Getting to 10,000 Posts" threads. When you see that you are qualified to be a bunny, you can either contact the thread starter to add your name or you can contact one of the moderators of this board to add you. Rules: The bunnies are allowed to wander off topic to randomly chat with each other when not discussing their posting goals. However, please keep in mind that the main topic of this thread is still about reaching your posting goals. While you can randomly chat to get to know each other better, please remember that the topic of this thread is still about posting goals, so this is a topic that you should get back to on a regular basis when you have reached a certain milestone or you are about to reach another posting goal. As a bunny, please remember to follow these rules: 1. Just because this thread is about posting goals, it doesn't mean this thread is about posting anything to increase your post count. Please do not come to this thread to star post to increase your post count. Star posting refers to either repeatedly making posts in a row when no one else posted yet and making posts on a regular basis that says very little. For example, do not always post with just smilies. Once or twice is okay, but not all the time where when you make an appearance, it's always just one smilie, only smilies or you are just saying hi to people on the thread, one person for each post. If you have nothing much to say, then don't post. Don't come to the thread lurking, posting smilies or comments with one or two words here and there, waiting for a conversation that would interest you. Such posting tactics would be considered star posting, something that is not allowed on Fan Forum. 2. When a bunny thread is nearing 300 posts, anyone who would like to start the new thread should say so on the old one. When starting a new thread, simply quote the first post, copy it and paste it on the new thread. Remember to remove the quote brackets. When someone already volunteered to make the new thread and the old thread reaches or passes 300 posts before the new thread is being posted, please stop posting on the old thread. Do not reply to any posts and wait for the new thread to be up. If the thread already reached 300 posts and no one volunteered, do not post unless you are volunteering to make the new thread. When the thread has passed 300 posts, please do not continue your conversations or keep asking "Who will make the new thread?" if you do not plan to make the new thread. At this point, the only person who should be posting on the old thread should be the person volunteering, either to inform everyone s/he will be making the new thread or to post a link to the new thread if s/he already volunteered earlier. 3. When you are the one making the new thread, once the new thread is up, you are telling mods the old one can be closed. Do not open a new thread first, then go back to the old thread to quote and copy the first post. Even if your computer is slow in loading a new thread, do not start the new thread with posts like "To be edited later." Even if it is slow, everyone can wait. Make sure the first post is ready before submitting. If after submitting the new thread and you notice an error while the old thread is already closed so you can't copy and paste again, you can PM a mod to ask them to fix it. 4. Do not add anything to the first post of this thread without asking a mod and getting approval in advance. The only exception would be adding the name of a new bunny to The Energizer Bunnies list and updating the existing links. Other than that, if you have a suggestion for any changes or something to be added to the first post, please ask a mod by PM. We would review your idea and get back to you as soon as possible. 5. Due to the large number of people who regularly post on this thread, sometimes conflicts are unavoidable. However, please keep in mind that if you have a problem with a poster, do not confront them on this thread. Take it to PM. You can either talk to them directly by PM or you can PM a mod about the situation. Please remember that you would likely meet a lot of different people on this thread and disagreements could happen. Please remember to stay respectful and not to attack other posters or to criticize anyone openly on this thread. If you would like to report a situation on the board that made you feel uncomfortable or offended, please report it to a mod by quoting the posts or links to specific thread pages. Be as specific as you can so we can more accurately assess the situation. Since this thread goes by quickly, it would help us a lot if you pinpoint where exactly did problems arise. It would be easier and faster for us to get to it. We would very much appreciate your help and cooperation. If you have any questions about the purpose or rules of this thread, feel free to ask a mod of this board by PM. Thank you, Moderators of Off Topic Board  The Energizer Bunnies (We keep posting and posting and posting...):Honorary Head Bunny: LittleMilkJug (Devon) for starting the original 10,000 Posts thread.  Bunnies are posters who have 30 or more posts on one of the "Getting to 10,000 Posts" threads, or 10 or more posts on three different "Getting to 10,000 Posts" threads. Devon originally colorized the list. (The number in brackets {} indicates the thread on which Bunny-hood was officially reached.)

Good morning. TFNT
 Not a great start to mine even though I'm kind of getting a break. Our system at work is down, so I haven't been able to work and had to change the inspections I had planned today. It's almost 2:00 now and still down. So instead I've been chatting, posting, and doing some reading. And cooked a bit. __________________

Ugh, Mel, that is frustrating. I hope yesterday and today has been better.
I will be back on campus for our university meetings on Friday and classes resume next week. I'm trying to get everything lined out and prepped this week. __________________

Sounds like a busy week then. I hope you get everything done you need to.
The system stayed down all of Monday so it was a wash of a day. Tuesday and today were super busy but all is good.  __________________

Yay! Good to hear
 It's been a good weekend. Classes begin on Tuesday where I teach so I'm getting my classes are prepped. It's supposed to be decently warm today (like almost 60F) so we may get outside and do a little yardwork and maybe smoke some ribs for dinner. __________________

Thanks
Because of my lost day this past week I did work a little bit yesterday. I'm glad to hear that. And ribs sounds yummy. I had breakfast with new friends yesterday which was nice. Today I've done some household stuff but have mostly relaxed. Finished a book. Happy to be off tomorrow too. Getting together with a couple of my siblings and their kids and taking them to a park/ranch. Should be fun. __________________

That does sound fun.
 Did you have a good time? What book did you just finish?  I'm reading The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead right now, as it's a book that our university is using as a common read. The author is even coming to campus  __________________

I had a very nice day. The kids had a blast. And later in the day I met up with a friend for a meal and ice cream.
I just read the second book in the A Discovery of Witches series, Shadow of Night. How are you liking it so far? I just read about it. Sounds interesting. I'll have to add it to my list. Very cool the author is coming to campus. I always enjoy stuff like that. __________________

Just keep posting and chatting and you will get there quickly! Mel It's a good book. I mean the writing is great; the topic is dark, and it's pretty disturbing since it's based on a true story. But I'm glad I'm reading it. __________________
