Official NextGenUpdate Milestone Thread


Introduction:

The purpose of this thread is to keep track of both achievements of the site as a whole, and to give individual members here at NextGenUpdate a place to share their own achievements, whether they be site related, such as post count achievements, reputation achievements, etc., or non-site related, being something like getting married, having a child, buying a new car, and so on.

All major achievements for the site as a whole will be recorded into the original post. All other achievements will simply be viewable through the post itself.

The Rules:

Like with all threads of this sort, there need to be a few ground rules to ensure that this thread meets its purpose, and does not veer off to any unrelated topics at any time.

1.) Asking for reputation in this thread is prohibited. This is mainly because many members do not like it when members ask for reputation, and therefore it could lead to a comment, of which could lead to an argument of a sort.

2.) Do not criticize, or downsize the achievements of anyone. While someone may post an achievement that seems like nothing to you, that does not give you the right to openly express that, as that is simply rude.

3.) When posting an achievement concerning reputation or post counts, do not encourage people to help you achieve future goals. This would be classified as boosting, which is clearly against the NextGenUpdate Rules & Regulations.

4.) Stay on topic at all times. If you are not commenting (positively) on someone's achievement, or posting an achievement of your own, there is no reason for you to be posting in this thread.

5.) Follow all NextGenUpdate rules.

______________________________________

When posting an achievement in this thread, please try not to simply post your achievement, but elaborate on it! I understand that some achievements cannot be elaborated on, but if you can, please do so! When reading about something that someone has achieved, it is much more interesting if I know what makes that achievement significant, and what the person had to do to achieve it. Of course this is not required, but it is strongly recommended to ensure that this thread is of high quality.

Anyway, I'll say my greatest achievement here was becoming part of the News Team. For awhile, I had had a small and secret desire to be on the News Team, but really never saw myself getting onto the team, as I didn't think I'd be able to pull it off. I was very surprised to have been promoted, and have enjoyed every moment of being on the team so far. Smile

Thats so nice of you and i love the thread and it shall go far with you! I was the first one to think of something like this... But first i thought of it being like a subsection for users. But richie gave the idea of posting a thread like this but.. I got to it first Winky Winky.. I had the idea to make something like this first of all with the milestone thing. And my biggest milestone was reaching 3,000 rep to get my silver star and also 1,000 posts! Smile Im glad Carling picked you for this! And this thread shall be great with you owning it!
