There is a trust and credibility factor that people assume with these titles ... in most cases, these assumptions are false.

I would prefer a system where STAFF members "vote" on member's usertitle upgrade ... that is of course when a member reaches a certain criteria.

eg. instead of automatically upgrading usertitle the system provides a list to staff ... ONLY when 80% of staff approves of "coder" will the system upgrade their title

A system likes this is rewarding and will say A LOT MORE to the community regarding said member.

Also, a member will have to "earn" their title by sharing, advocating profesionlism, and displaying the right conduct regardless of circumstances. This would be a lot better than an automatic system based on installs, time here, etc.


Oh yea...
There should additional titles. Since the merger with vbulletintemplates, vB.org has become more than just a "hack" site.

For example, some members are excellent with "styles" while others are great at coding. How about those who have proving that they can do both?
