Hitting 15k Hive Power as a new Bumble Bee on hive!

Hello Hello Hivians I graduated today!

For real! I have become a Bumble Bee!

Let me explain...

Remember this post?
🐝 Automated Hive Status Badges - Bee themed HP Badges 🐝

Well it explains about Hive Power related badges which you are automatically given.

Earlier today I saw that ...

Woot Woot I passed 15k in Hive Power!

Which automatically meant I jumped a level from Honey Bee to Bumble Bee ...

... and got sent this Bumble Bee badge ...

I am pretty fluffing chuffed

I thought as I am approaching 4 years on the Hive blockchain I would take some time to reflect on my growth milestones...

Figures and Stats from HiveBuzz

By the way, I hope if you like seeing the gamification on Hive that you vote for the DHF proposal. It is below the threshold yet we handover thousands daily to the valueplan... What about looking after the users that are here with a fun experience...

HP Ranking is 956th with a HP of 15001

So I am in the top 1000 with stake Hive on the platform, that came as a bit of a surprise!

For a comparison I noticed some of my past posts include ...

2000 HP Oct 2022 2000 HP and My 10th Consecutive Hive Power up Day
6000 HP Sept 2023 Hitting 6k Hive Power on HivePUD for September
7300 HP Jan 2024 Happy New Year and enjoy powering up in 2024

Reputation is 365th place with a rep of 76.89

I know there is a lot of griping about the Reputation system. I do think it is a good indicator to see if someone has contributed to the ecosystem. I know in my case it is because I do write posts quite often and I get some tasty votes.
But as the old adage goes ... You gotta be in it to win it!

Posts are well down the rankings with 970 posts and 3568th place.

As these rankings are not just for Hive but include data from the chain it forked from. There are umpteen users who were active there and made loads of posts and rewards who are not active here.
Nevertheless I am chuffed with 970 posts...

My mini challenge ... to make 1000 posts before my 4th Hive birthday in September!

Comments ... I love this one ...

52388 comments puts me in 133rd place!

For info I am putting down this for competition ...

A wee word of thanks

Thank you to everyone that makes my time so much fun here on Hive.

I am a firm believer that if that something is fun you will keep doing it again and again. For any newcomers here, then I urge you to make meaningful engagement, it then becomes fun and you will grow.

Let's keep rocking Hive!
