sounds like a plan.  It's not like I'm not here every day anyway!

Hahahahahaha.
No, I'm planning to do a bit less actually.
But it is rather addictive

For sure mate - it's mainly a token payment but pennies make pounds as they say.

That's nearly 5 Mavic Air batteries - for free  Got another 5,400 in audit now too. Roll on the 18th

I believe it's the most on the entire forum

Yes.  addictive it is.   Especially while I didn't have my MA.  It has been good for me to stay connected.  There aren't many people around me that actually fly.  I'm thinking of trying to start or find a local group to fly with.  Personal interaction makes it much more fun!

Makes a big difference.

jacksonnai Posted at 2018-7-3 04:38

Hahahaha - you've been checking. Only Monty and I have >50,000 I believe.

Montfrooij Posted at 2018-7-3 03:20
Don't worry.
They will.
And if it does not happen, just send one of the admins a PM.

If only it was that easy... ;)

Montfrooij Posted at 2018-7-3 03:21
Wow, that is great.
So I can save credits for 10 years and buy an Inspire2 with nice lenses

Haha good luck saving! I guess it'll be an Inspire 8 by then

A CW Posted at 2018-7-3 04:24
I'll let you know when mine have been redeemed mate.

Thanks!

jacksonnai Posted at 2018-7-3 04:30

What can we do but wait..

GoldenSun Posted at 2018-7-3 04:59

Hahahahahaha.
Yes, very likely.
But seriously, I might start saving for a Ronin-S (at least for some part of it's price)
Looks like some beast of a gimbal!

GoldenSun Posted at 2018-7-3 04:59

And PS, my points from June have not yet been converted to Credits.

True.
I really like the interaction here.
Good vibes.
Great source of inspiration.
And an occasional good laugh

GoldenSun Posted at 2018-7-3 05:00

No probs. Not sure if everyones redeems at the same time but at least we'll know soon enough.

you both have a lot of point man
any tips? Now I just try to get at least 180 point every day

jacksonnai Posted at 2018-7-3 05:28

Well, we all have goals.  

My goal here has not changed with the revelation that of what can be done with points.  I will continue to operate as normal.  Meaningful interaction is more important to me that point accumulation.  There are several threads that I have chosen to stay out of because i have nothing to add, or don't want to get sucked into drama.  ;)

jacksonnai Posted at 2018-7-3 05:28

Tips. Um,
>Log in daily
>Post footage/stills
>Be appreciative of replies (which you're the master at lol)
>Engage in trouble shooting issues to help others (don't get personal like some do)
>If your footage gets recognised by DJI they may place it into Digest - that is a major point provider
>Most important of all (in terms of points) - look out for DJI competitions from DJI Grace at the top of the first page. Read the T&C's carefully and enter the comp - you can receive thousands of points sometimes for just taking part (though I have won two) - usually around new releases and special occasions like Christmas, Easter, Father's Day, Chinese New Year etc.
- The main thing is to just enjoy using the forum and engage in the hobby - you'll learn loads. Points are a nice bonus but if that is your only motive you will get bored on here very quickly mate. Each post is less than 2 pence so to make dollars takes a very long time, to make hundreds of dollars takes people literally a year (of active daily use) or more in most cases.  

Montfrooij Posted at 2018-7-3 05:06

Sometimes that is for the best unless I see someone I respect on here being treated unfairly then it will always be my pleasure to step in and usually wipe the floor with um. There are a few of them - that's for sure: buy their first drone, watch a Neistat vid on YT and all of a sudden they know more than me after two flights lol Gotta love it! You'll also find that Captains and especially those with a lot of points are baited more by noobs. Sad, but true.

I have to agree, if you came here just for points - good luck, you'll get bored soon. Otherwise, enjoy!

Good for you mate. And congrats on becoming a forum Captain - that was very quick

jacksonnai Posted at 2018-7-3 06:15

They are supposed to be exchanged every first working day of each month, but as we can see it's not the case. We can only wait.

Mine also still have not been exchanged yet for June but has only been now three days.  But I noticed last month mine were exchanged like the first day of the month so 6/1 they were done.  These last two months have been the only time I have ever exchanged points.

I can assure you, it is more easy getting rich by flipping burgers than by responding here.
But, if you enjoy the process, that makes it worth it!

You got that right!!    I mean, if my math is right, each reply is like $.01  

Yeah, i'll just continue to look at it as a bonus.  If it ever gets me tangible goods, then WHOO HOO.  If not, this is still a fun ride!

I think I spend about 9 months of posting almost every day at least for 1 hour on this forum.
Gained a lot of information, ideas, inspiration, tips, tricks in a lot of area's.
And got to help some others or stimulate them.
That was a ton of fun!
In the meantime I recently used about € 172,- in credit to buy some accessories from the DJI store.
So that is indeed a small bonus!

GoldenSun Posted at 2018-7-3 12:06
Haha so true!

I speak nothing but the truth
