Reward for Coders

[tnguy3n]

It would be nice to have some sort of rewards for contributing members in general, not necessarily to only advanced or master coders. As for the title, it's pretty useless to me cuz I didn't see any change in my membership.

this is a good idea, a place where coders can discuss privately about things like "building mega projects in teams", or "a mega overtake of vb.org"...

...... oh, and cash would be nice of course

YES! the first two anyway. Maybe not delete posts, and piss peeps off about their post count. But the ability to hide posts would be cool. Too many useless posts clutter up the hack threads so no one reads the useful ones.

A private forum for all that release hacks. Everyone that releases code to make vBulletin better deserves a discussion forum, not just the ones that have been around longer.

Naa, there would be a flood of crappy hacks to get hack status.

- I get recognition form people now and then that enjoy what the hacks does for their site.
- Some that value the hack alot might toss a few bones @ me now and then.

I do not need a gold star no.

Paul M.. => "moderate our own hack threads"

- I do not see this happening. Many people get in a pissing contest " you Deled my post blaw blaw blaw"

- Another problem w/ the idea is relevance of someone's post. To you it may be moronic what a person might of posted, but I may find it usefull on a project I may be stuck on. I may be off in "left" field, but it sounds like a can of worms.

Nope, there wouldn't because the coder status depends also on the install count, not only on the number of hacks. If the hacks were crappy then they wouldn't have many installs and the poster wouldn't achieve coder (let's not mention advanced coder!) through them

all your coders are belong to us

[FreshFroot]

Well that's not the problem really back in the day when vb 2 series was our or even when early 3.0 came out tons of people wrote hacks it was packed here but since 3.5 came out thought its great mods have gone down and tons of people I knew here haven't made new mods or updated anything, infact most of them aren't even here hardly. Gosh I miss those good old golden days
