It was about 10 days ago now that I reached 1500 followers, (June 14th) and 70 Rep. Score on May 2nd, 2017.

I hit 1500 Followers, 13,000 posts & 15,000 Steem Power all in the same week, (June 5-12th) and today is June 24th, so 12-18 days ago for those milestones. I joined in August of 2016 so around 10 mths ago now.

--

I had 1200 followers / 12,000 posts on May 31st, 2017. These other milestone posts are below.

That is +800 followers & 2000 posts in the last ~24 days given last nite's post count + overnight's new followers!

It took me 50 days to move from 70 to 71 Rep. score.

--

I would have gotten to 71 Rep Score several days sooner, but I was flagged by a huge whale on here, with 7 accounts at their full vote power when I did a post to welcome @itsmee.bosslady to Steemit -- and that killed the post rewards I was largely going to donate to her and it dinged my rep score quite a bit, when things like that happen. Just so newer people have an idea of what to expect with certain things here.

It is very true, the higher your rep score climbs, the longer and harder it is to move up to the next one. You really start to notice this once you hit the 50 rep score range.

Here is the screenshot from the other day when I hit those 1800 followers and 71 Rep. Score marks:

---

Part of why I do these is to give newer Steemians exact ideas and numbers for my milestones so they have an idea for their own markers here - and also because I think it is nice for the future to show my milestones and preserve them as I like to look back on things like this myself.

Many of us more senior Steemians in terms of some numbers often get asked how long these things take or how to do them, so it will give some direction to newer members here. I was helped a lot along the way so I try to help when I can back as well.

---

If Steemit becomes THE social media and Crypto blockchain, we are a huge piece of history here folks. That is part of it too.

---

I just continue to Minnow along here. I've taken 5 weeks total off. As you know, I like to report good news and encouraging things when I can for others, sometimes that includes my side of things too.

---

I wanted to thank all of you who have voted for me, chatted with me, helped me, and become a friend.

The following/followers stats have ALWAYS been several days behind for some reason in the 10 mths I have been on here, you can see the followers here are way below the 2000+ I have today, in the 1970 range, it is likely 4 days or so behind here but even then I am close to #80 rank overall in followers now:

---

Thanks for the friendship and support along the way everyone.

Keep on the Rockets to the Moon with your goals and Crypto as we are all early adopters here and always try and keep that in mind, it can be easy to get discouraged if you do not.

Thanks for reading, have a nice day.
