Close to member number 1000
 

Ok, I have to ask Wa'il, we're very close to member 1000 and just wanted to know in advance if any bells or whistles would go off ;)

Bonnie

Wouldn't it be great to give the 1000th member a gift (book or something small) and a welcome such as s/he would remember for the rest of his/her life! Not that the rest of us don't get a warm welcome anyhow but ....

Take care. :D ;)

Actually, we missed the bells and whistles by 10 members. ;)

User number 1,000 is golocarb

This happens because some members request to be removed, and occasionaly I register as new user and delete myself to test things out when we upgrade.

Let's think of the next milestone, user #2,000, first user to reach 1,000 posts (me :) ), first user to reach 2,000 posts?

Wa'il

Could it be scripted into the program, that member # 2000 or poster with 2000 posts will get the Whoosh fairy on every single forum page for the 24 hr period during which they have attained the said status?? ;) ... and/or special mention or their name shows up highlighted on the Forum home page. Something like that??

O Great and Magnificent Webmaster.

That would probably be you too! ;)

Ooooh having the whoosh fairy on me all day would be incentive enough for me. I come here at least twice a day anyway - sometimes just get carried away reading to contribute anything.

What's the reasoning behind the whoosh fairy? I'm beginning to think it might be different from what I have been thinking it is.

Do any of you believe in angels and fairies? I do.
Take care.

hi fiona,

A "whoosh" is when you plod along, lowcarbing faithfully, and nothing happening weight-loss wise .... then one morning you get up, step on the scales and WHOOSH, several pounds (kg) gone!! The Whoosh fairy makes it happen while you sleep ;)

Whoosh Fairy
 

Thanks Doreen.
:D
I am glad I asked. I shall be talking to the Whoosh Fairy before I drop off tonight - only just got up. She sounds like the sort of fairy that could be my very best friend for life !
Take care.
