E2 Rites Of Passage (thing)

I've been thinking about this. There are numerous things that have happened to me in my tenure on E2 which I consider to be steps along the way. Yes, I know about levels, and obviously getting to the next level is a big step, but these are the more intangible things that can happen.

• Your first cool.
• Your first nuke. Hopefully your first cool happens before your first nuke.
• Seeing your node in the random nodes nodelet
• Getting a /msg from one of the Everything 2 Editors
• Getting a /msg from one of the Everything 2 Editors that is a compliment and not merely constructive criticism.
• Getting swallowed by the Everything Death Borg
• Having your first double-digit rep writeup
• Getting to 50 writeups so your list of writeups breaks one page

I'm confident that most people will see all of these if they're patient, hardnoding, and honest.
