Did the criteria for Coder titles drop majorly recently?

[kall]

I just saw a 'Coder' with one hack, 62 installs.

IIRC, this would have resulted in them being still a Member prior to 3.5.x

dunno, i removed mine once already, but it came back

[Paul M]

1 hack, 10 installs used to get you coder as I recall.

[Xenon]

Paul is right, since we made that title it always was one hack and 10 installs, that didn'T change with the new system

[antialiasis]

I became a coder with two hacks and seven or eight installs, I believe...

I don't know how I ended up being Designer with 48 installs, but I dig it.

I think the coder/designer ones are still one release 10 installs, or there abouts. It's the top end ones that seem to be getting lower as time goes on, or at least people are coming in, are releasing stuff for like 2 months and are master coders. Seems rather fishy to me.

[Logikos]

I remember reading a rather old post.

Coder: 1 hack with 10 or more installs. Advanced Coder: 10 hacks with 20 or 30 install or more per hack released and Master Coder: 15 or 20 Hacks released with 40 or more installs per hack released.

I know the above isn't correct since not all my hacks have 20-40 or more installs, so I'm sure its an average # of some sort. This is a big secrect so don't tell anyone okay?

We just put names on a dart board and give the status to the names we happen to hit.

Apparently. Because as of today... I've become a Coder.

Go figger.
