Milestone: an animation

Yes! I completely agree! But, don't tell those people who post milestones every time or else the whole feed would be filled with milestone posts everyday haha!

Dude! You know, I might be in the minority, but I'm divided about the whole milestone thing. Sure, I love a good 'ol milestone post, especially the ones that really commemorate the journey to get there. @dreemit's jam-packed milestone post is an awesome example that comes to mind. But, when someone posts a "milestone" every other day, then it kind of loses its luster, doncha' think?

I mean, milestones are something to celebrate. By definition, it's a mark of something that was hard to reach. If someone is celebrating milestones every now and then, it means that those particular milestones aren't that hard to reach to begin with (at least for said person). Sure, it's an achievement, but posting a 50-word piece that just says you earned this much, then posting a week later that the previous milestone post earned you this much, then it's kind of like just milking the teat, if you will. Gaming the system, I suppose.

Anyway, yeah, everyone has the right to do it, sure. To each his own, I guess. I just prefer boulder-sized celebratory post, packed with meat. A mileboulder.

What I'm sure of though, is how much I like the sweet and simple animation. I would've thought you animating the guy literally hitting a mile stone haha though, but maybe the laid back nature of the fisher folk has relaxed you a bit :D

meesterboom (78) · 7 years ago

I completely agree with you dude! This animation is not what it started out as. The original was mocking the milstone antics a bit but ultimately in the end I saw it as being a bit mean and maybe being able to be taken as an attack on people who post them and since mean-ness isnt really in my nature I changed it. The original had another person in it who wasnt that impressed ;O)

So with you there dude, especially when you see one posted every other day. The only one I have done is my 70 rep one lol and that was just sheer amazement at getting there!

jedau (67) · 7 years ago

It's Dundee getting to you, dude! Haha! :D I kid. I know that you're one of the most good-natured folks around it, and it's great that you revised it that way.

Nothing really wrong with milestones, but yeah, it should be something that would make people go "WOW! :O" I'm happy for all the milestones, I really am, but I draw the line on seeing milestone post centered on what a milestone post made haha

$0.00

meesterboom (78) · 7 years ago

Definitely aye there. A milestone is exactly that an occasion to mark, something big!!

I will get back to the killing in the next animation ;0)

jedau (67) · 7 years ago

Haha! I just hope your animation gets interpreted that way and knock some sense into their heads. Or, it could lead to hundreds of milestone posts tomorrow marking their milestone of realizing that milestone posts should be about a certain hard-to-reach goal haha!

That's so weird, I responded to this post. It must not have gone through and I clicked out without noticing.
What I said was I read your back in forth with @jedau and How dare you? Hee hee, I"m kidding! I'm actually with you. Someone had asked if I was doing one for five hundred followers and I ended up combining it with a photography post because it seemed like I did the last one five minutes ago. Just like the 600. It took a lot of effort to get to three hundred, even four, but now it's happening so fast it would feel cheap to keep doing them.
Although, it would be hilarious to use this animation and do a "Halfway to meesterboom" milestone LOL. I basically am in followers and posts, about halfway.
70 rep though, especially with how insanely long it's taking to gain each point now, that I will definitely do.

meesterboom (78) · 7 years ago

70 rep is a big one!! I like seeing a proper milestone post. The day I started this one I had saw one for someone reaching 80 followers. This was after the one a few days before at reaching 50 and I was a bit grumpy and thought ahah. I am goig to do an animation! It was funny but as I watched the almost finshed version I thought yikes, people might take that as an utter affront!

Halfway to meesterboom, lol! It all starts snowballing when you get to a certain point doesnt it?
