IMO that's a load of crap. This forum is not a place where customers can come and find downloads that appeared right out of the blue. Someone coded them.

I wish people would stop with this "ohs teh noes, coders shouldn't be distinguished from the other customers because equality is the key" schite. Wtf, this isn't the Soviet Union.
I can say that I think coders are more valuable to this community because we provide the reason as to why customers come here in the first place. Everybody who thinks that if a coder and a non-coder (in the sense of contributor to this site) both leave, that that's an equal shame, is pretty ignorant. A contributor is valuable to this community. Someone who clicks install on a couple of hacks isn't.

Im not saying that coders are more worth as people. Im just saying that we are more worth in this community site.
I didn't say they should be treated as crap. I didn't say they shouldn't be recognized. I found some time to put together a perfectly legitimate and professional suggestions thread and I get flamed? Coming from an "Advanced Coder", nonetheless. What does this say about the community?

There should be another way of recognizing contributors that doesn't divide the entire community into normal members and coders. The awards hack idea sounds like a great idea.
