vBulletin Mods

What does it take to get the "coder" user title?

By releasing modifications to vBulletin in the Mod section. Major addition hacks usually give you coder immediately, while others release small amounts of small template changes/hacks to get coder.

^^ How come you and I are only "contributors" ? When do we graduate from contributors to coders/designers ?

You have to release a lot of small hacks or one major addition.

what if I do freelance work for people in the request sections? that doesn't qualify me for anything? :(

Nope. You must release your own custom coded hacks in the modification section.

The titles are based on a release level system. Each release you make counts towards your release level, thus, giving you a title.

If you release a 100 different mods, for one version, you'll become a moderator like King Kovifor


im only kidding.

LOL

Ive heard that if you release 101, you get a free Dalmation .....

Really? I heard it was a free bottle of wine? meh, people need to make their minds up lol

(Of course, only kidding)

Haha! I actually got a good laugh out of that one! I don't have that many...

I heard that too, you even get Cruella devil (or whoever) to post 101 posts on your own forum too! :D
i was super bored and didn't know what to put so i thought of that :)

A bit off topic, and I applogize for that, but this whole Coder, Designer, Coder/Designer ranks have suprised me a bit. I mean I have seen some members holding one of those ranks that have asked some questions that no Coder and/or Designer should ask. So that makes me wonder how deserving that thing is. (holding the rank I mean). I really hope no one will hold a grudge at me about what I said above, but it is something that I have noticed, that is all, nothing personal to no-one :)



Lol Paul :D

Even the most advanced coders have questions that they would need to ask. Not a single person can claim they know absolutely everything about PHP (aside from, maybe, the PHP Devs themselves).

That's why we are a community. We help those who need it, and get helped when we need it. :)
