Just thought I'd do this to save Net the time.
In an ongoing effort to optimize the performance of the forums for everyone, we're now onto our fourth stretch of posts for the Boredom Nexus.
The previous threads can be found here:
Boredom Nexus #1
Boredom Nexus #2
Boredom Nexus #3
Boredom Nexus #4
Boredom Nexus #4 LAST PAGE
These are the rules for this thread as made by the staff, try to follow them.

Basically,
While Boredom Nexus is essentially a "spam" topic, thats a pretty broad definition. This thread will follow all existing forum rules with one exception.
You may have a "random" discussion here, which means you can talk about whatever you want as long as it doesn't violate the rules.
What this does mean is that short posts like "lol" or "its 6:47pm here!" or "what?" are essentially spam and will be treated as such. Also, fighting with each other is also considered against the rules, other types of crazy spam like Quote Trains, spamming the same message again and again, and so forth will result in infractions and or bans.
Don't go over the top with your post and try to keep it conversational, not spam.
Other than that, feel free to have fun and chill out.
Whyyyyyyyyy is there another Boredom Nexus?
When threads get really really big (think 2000+ posts) they tend to start slowing the website down due to the sheer size. The last one got to 2000 posts in under a MONTH.
I'm thinking of implementing a "chat" system that will automatically remove older posts and work a lot more efficiently. I'm not entirely sure when however! But it will result in saving much bandwidth & entire website loading times for everyone just due to the large volume the single thread consumes.
And I'm pretty sure that's what Net would say
